State tourney is last 4 days of July.

Kind of sucks because Minnesota wanted tp place him in the Northwoods League but he owes his team.

and the MILB has kicked the out of the ballparks so not sure where yet.

Where are you coming from? JCG

CA, Good Knight.  Deets by PM if you want them. No reason to bore the entire board.

Grew up in Waterloo until age 12.  Grandparents lived in Hudson.  Back in the 70's and 80's town closed up to watch the FB team.  I think that they had a larger attendance than the 5a school my son attends here in Texas, but time always skews perspective, and yes I did walk uphill both ways.

Remember the youth baseball program during the summer for younger kids was "Tshirts" and when you got older you moved to "Sweatshirts". 

Most fun was just putting your glove over your handle bar, bat over your shoulder, and getting your friends and "traveling" to an "opposing" elementary school for an afternoon/evening (until the streetlights came on, or until you heard mom yell).

Now we just fly to Florida

SWEET!

IOWA HS state tournament for 4a is at Iowa Hawkeyes field.

Now to just get there.

I was also excited to note this morning that they will serve wine at Duane Banks Field. Probably not during state tournament, and others seemed to think that beer and wine at the football stadium was more important, but still exciting for baseball fans. Could keep me coming back even after Duncan is done playing!

Holy God!

Our coaches scheduled 7 games next week, including the states 7,8,10th ranked teams.

The weather is 95 degrees and hardest are away games.

Maybe we will get lucky and MLB combine will last longer and top pitcher will not make it back?

Bet u wish you had Summer baseball! We are 14-0 until next week.

Damn it. I forgot to add the sherpa.

But do you get to decide who you play at the Prange Classic? Have fun!!! And temps at the end of the week look like the 80s--a huge improvement!!!!
