Our season didn’t end the way we wanted it to tonight, but that’s okay. Congratulations to Freelandville Blue on bringing the heat and playing a great game!

We had a great season, ending with 6 wins to 3 losses on the regular season and we made it to the championship for the second year in a row! All of us coaches are so proud of our team💚! I want to shout out all of our 8 year olds this year that will be moving up to kid pitch next year. Wren, Maggie, Jeremy, Gunner, Bexley, Nora, Madison, Ne’Veyah, Khloe, and Stephica! These are all such great kids that we’ve had the pleasure to coach, some of them since kindergarten🥹! I want you all to know how proud we are of you and I see nothing but good things in all of your futures! Keep playing ball, keep shining bright, and keep that mitt in the dirt😉!

For the last time this season, GO OAKTOWN💚
