Last year's Little League SW regional winner that advanced to (quarters/semi's of U.S. grouping) also put their all-star team in USSSA open bases tournaments. They were routinely drummed in the AAA division.

I gotta second this. As 12's my team swamped a team in Omaha 14-2 that ended up in the LLWS that same year.
