Warriors (12U) Capture White Division Championship at Strike Out Breast Cancer Charity Tournament
Sporting pink arm-bands and socks to support the cause, the Warriors won the White Division in the Strike Out Breast Cancer (SOBC) 2013 Charity Baseball Tournament in Austell and Powder Springs over the Father’s Day Weekend. The tournament featured good competition with twelve teams from North Georgia. NYO split two pool play games to earn the seventh seed overall and the top seed in the six-team White Division in single elimination bracket play. After a bye, the Warriors defeated the Oregon Park Silverhawks in the semi-finals, 8-6. In the final against the Kennesaw General All Stars, NYO came back from a 7-0 deficit after three innings to win 12-7 and cap a great weekend of baseball for charity.

NYO 11U Firebirds earn invite to Dizzy State Tourney
Mama said there'd be days like this, or so said The Shirelles in 1961. The song may be an oldie, but the sentiment sometimes holds true in the new millennium.
The NYO 11U Firebirds, winners of three consecutive tournament titles, suffered their first losing streak of the season (albeit just 2 games in length) in last weekend's Dizzy Dean District IV Tournament hosted by NYO and Sandy Springs, with a big assist to Buckhead Baseball.
The excitement of the 11-team, double-elimination tourney wasn't limited to the field of play as NYO and Sandy Springs experienced some of the effects of Thursday night's storms.

began with Buckhead jumping out to a 2-0 lead in the top of the first. The Longhorn bats were quiet but the boys were focused and played tight defense until the bats woke up and the Longhorn's tied the game at 2 in the bottom of the 3rd. The 4th and 5th innings were scoreless with great defensive plays by Thomas Termini, Davis Taylor, Marshall Benton and Luke Wiltrakis. (Click on photo or headline to read more)
NYO Summer Baseball - The Big Picture
|
Summer Ball Underway with 18 Teams in Action |
Summer ball is here. NYO is fielding 18 tournament teams this summer, and all teams are in high gear now as we embark on a big summer of tournament baseball. With so many teams and kids playing this summer (216 players from our 7U-14U regular season baseball leagues) in so many tournaments (somewhere around 105 and upwards of 500 games), it's a bit difficult to keep up with everyone.
Thanks to all of our crack staff of team reporters for their detailed and entertaining reports - keep them coming for all of the teams no matter what the result as we all love to hear how you're doing.
We're criss-crossing the state (and a few adjoining states as well) bringing NYO's brand of sportsmanship and competitiveness everywhere we go. We've already taken back the hardware at several touraments this summer and we're having great success across the board.
This year, in particular, we've really stepped up the level of competition as most of our 10U-14U teams are playing either exclusively travel team tournaments or a hybrid of travel and sanctioned all star play. At many of these tournaments, we are the only "all star" team amongst a field of travel only teams (and we're competing with and beating them regularly).
We are also extremely fortunate to have so many volunteer community coaches involved in the summer program this year. 11 of our teams are being managed by volunteer community coaches with an additional 25-30 volunteers helping out with these teams. Please thank these guys every chance you can as they are the true cornerstone of the summer program.
Special thanks to Ben Levenbaum for coordinating our 12 and under summer teams and their activities. Good luck to all of our teams, players and coaches and enjoy the rest of the ride this summer!
Here's a short summary of each team and where they are generally playing over the summer (note that each team's accomplishments are not mentioned in this article but keep watching for updates on this site for specific team reports): click on article heading to read more
