ALL STARS CITY CHAMPS OFF TO STATE
It started off a bit rocky for the team, losing to St. Joe 15-5. With a strong pitching performance from Bailey Shimer and Keion Powers, Elmhurst got back on track with a win over Auburn, and another win over Leo with another strong pitching performance from Drake Miller and Hunter Bennett. With another win against Georgetown, Elmhurst made it to the championship tournament to be held at St. Joe against St. Joe. Elmhurst won the first game 21-10 of the double elimination, the team made a last inning come back the next game, ultimately losing to St. Joe 15-14.

The boys came out like hitting machines, scoring 13 runs in the second inning alone. Drake Miller did a fantastic job pitching and the defense stepped it up! With the momentum going their way the team won the game 23-5!
