10U Baseball Wins Etna Tournament
The Bauerstown 10 year old tournament team won the Etna 2009 Tournament on July 2 at Sullivan Field against Middle Road final score 3-1.
This was a huge accomplishment and they played outstanding. Don was a first time manager for the 10 year old tournament bracket, he is very proud of each player!
Don and his coaches encouraged teamwork, a positive attitude and most importantly, teaching the sport and having fun! This would not have been accomplished without
the efforts of coaches Ed Borgen, and Chuck Vulakovich.
