2009 All-Star Update – Sectionals
Kevin Epifanio’s 9-10 Softball team took runner-up honors behind District 13 Bloomingdale at the Section tourney last weekend despite beating Bloomingdale 2-1 earlier in the day. They fought back from a 14-5 deficit following a rain delay, scoring 8 runs in the sixth inning, against Lake Wales but fell short 14-13. They took a 21-1 victory over North River in four innings in the first game of the tournament. In spite of outscoring their opponents 36-15, when the run differential was calculated they came in number two. These kids had a great run through the all-stars and promise great things for LOLLL in the future.

Tim Henderson’s 11 year old Baseball team won the Section 4 tournament Saturday and will be representing Land O’ Lakes Little League/District 25/Section 4 at the state tournament next weekend. This is the second trip to states in as many years for this team. Congratulations and good luck, boys!
Kenny Cochran’s Junior Softball team took the Section 4 Championship last weekend and represented Land O’ Lakes Little League/District 25/Section 4 in the State tourney this weekend where they played into the semi-final round today before falling to South Tampa, a conglomeration of Palma Ceia/Interbay/Tampa Bay junior softball. They are one of the top four junior softball teams in the state of Florida. Way to go girls!
Shamaine Douglas and her 11 year old Softball team are playing in the State Championship game tomorrow morning at 10am at Windemere Little League. This team has sailed through the sectional and state tournaments winning all but one game by 10 runs or more. They face Windemere Little League, a team they beat Saturday 5-4. If any of you can make it to the game, please do, otherwise keep Shamaine and the girls in your thoughts as they play for Land O’ Lakes Little League’s first every State Championship in softball.
