Son that played little league, now playing club ball at jmu

Younger son in little league majors. Older sons top team moment was wining the Virginia State little league championship for juniors in 2015. The northern Virginia little leagues have fared well winning junior and senior titles. Louden little league did well this past year.

There are solid programs at the youth and high schools levels in Virginia. But overall talent doesn’t match up to that coming out of Florida, Georgia and Texas. Part of that is a result of the weather.

That plays out as you look at the rosters of state college programs
