Game #41 American Conference Championship Lions vs Hilliard Panthers

Last game of the season. A rematch against the Hilliard Panthers for the U10 COYBL American Conference Championship. Lions come in 26-13-1, Panthers record is 22-14. The teams met back on May 7th with the Lions winning 10-8. Hilliard used 7 successful bunts to keep the game close then. Needless to say, we spent about an hour on bunt coverage at practice on Tuesday night.

The weather was perfect and Cael Baker got off to a great start getting Panthers out 1,2,3 in the top of the first. The Lions jumped all over Hilliard, scoring 6 in the bottom half. Cael kept rolling on the mound (only allowing 2 hits over 4 innings). The Lions added 2 in the 2nd, and 2 in the 4th to win by run rule 10-0. What a fabulous way to end a great season. 27-13-1, Division and Conference Champions!!

Can't wait for 2010!!!!!!!!
