Madison's 9U Little League All-Star Team just concluded participation in the 2013 Yalesville Little League Summer Classic Tournament, winning 10-0 in the championship game.
This is the first time Madison has brought home the trophy to this tournament (which is primarily 10U teams). Congratulations to the boys for their dedication and hard work!
The team battled the heat and a very strong Yalesville team to bring home the ultimate prize in the double-elimination tournament on Tuesday, July 16 in Yalesville.
The Team went undefeated in the play-off portion of the Tourney and earned themselves the number one seed, battling teams from Guilford, Wallingford, Southington and Yalesville.
