The North Piedmont All-Star team is the State Champion!! The PC Boys and the area All-Star team traveled to Liberty,NC on Friday. The team went through the tournament with a 4-2 record. The boys played as a strong team unit. We made it through to the Championship game on Monday night. We played the All-Star team from South Buncombe (Asheville area). We were the away team and were up 3-0 after two innings. Then the bats came alive. We were up 7-0 after the third inning. The fourth inning we went ahead 11-0. T.J. pitched a complete game No Hitter. With his infield picking him up, and Ausar framing the pitches the team was just to good to be beat!
The boys have had a great season so far. If the funding comes in for the team they will travel to the SouthEast regional tournament in two weeks. The Power Cross members of the All-Star team make up the Catcher, Two Pitchers, Short Stop, Third Baseman, and Three Outfielders. The Power Cross boys are the first four batters in the lineup! I think it's clear to see what an awesome job Coach Jeff has done! As soon as the game was over, after the team dog pile, it was Coach Jeff that they all wanted to hug! Of course I was there to get a picture! I hope you enjoy the images below. The boys had a fun shaving cream fight to celebrate.
Thank you to everyone who has made recent Power Cross donations. We had 6 boys in a hotel for 3 nights, gas to Liberty, and food for three days. We wouldn't have been able to do that without your support!
The best part is seeing the boys pray and thank God before the game for the ability and pray after the game to give him glory and praise!
The final pitch to a perfect game!
The chaos after the last out!
Hugs all around for Coach Jeff, his glasseswere hiding his teary eyes!
