The Coquitlam 8 Year Old Selects served notice at this years District 3 tournament that we are not to be taken lightly!
After a rough start, losing 20-9 to Langley the boys came to life. We took Whalley right to the very last out before falling 12-11. Against North Langley, we came out on top by a score of 14-6. Day three saw us up against an undefeated White Rock A. Down by three going into the bottom of the sixth, we got it to 12-11 with two out, tying run on second before grounding out to first to end the game. Our last game we seemed to run out of gas a bit against White Rock B, but a late rally made the final score look a little more respectable, a 22-16 loss.
A 1-4 record may not look so good on paper, but the boys took the two top teams in the tournament right down to the wire. Great job Athletics, we'll be back ! |
