The Colonie 12U All-Stars have mashed their way through 16 games (all wins) since tournament play began over a month ago. During the impressive run, this group has beaten their opponents by a total of 173-28, outscoring the other teams by an an eye-popping 145 runs.

Yes, you read that right.  Their average score per 6-inning contest is nearly 11-2.  But enough about the gawdy numbers, we know this team is really, really good.

The number that matters now is the number 2; that's how many more wins they'll need before this special gourp of boys can play for a chance to be crowned National Champions at the LL World Series in Williamsport, PA.

Following the Friday celebration at Cook Park, the players and coaches will make their way to Bristol, CT for the Mid-Atlantic Regionals.  
In the Regionals, the competition will be much tougher for Colonie who will have to navigate their way through 5 other teams, also state champions, and also with very impressive resumes.
