Nash County's 14u Babe Ruth team dream of winning the Southeast Regional did not come to pass today as they lost their semi final game to Lawrenceburg Tn the western state champions of Tennessee by a score of 7-6. The other semi Key West Fl beat Fernadina Beach Fl and then Lawrenceburg Tn beat Key West to win the Regional and earn a trip to the Babe Ruth World Series in Ocala Fl.
During the Regional Nash County went 3-2 and their only two losses were to the champion and the runner up. I don 't care what sport it is people don 't realize how hard it is to win any sports tournament. NFL, NCAA, Babe Ruth and this group now 14 have won two state titles and shown that they can play with any team at any time. If you recall last year the only loss this group suffered was the Regional championship game but that one loss knocked them out then. This group of players headed by Coach Lee Gold has done us proud. Great job guys!!!!!
The Nash County Babe Ruth 14u team plays Lawrenceburg Tn at 11:30 this morning in the semi final round of the Southeast Regional in Newton NC. Lawrenceburg is the top seed in the National bracket of the regional. After ten teams played four pool play games the top two from each bracket now square off for the regional title.
Lawrenceburg won the National bracket with Fernadina Beach Fl drawing the second seed. Fernadina Beach plays the top seed from the American bracket in which Nash County was in Key West Fl. The two winners will square off the the Southeast Regional title and winning a trip to Ocala Fl in the 14u Babe Ruth World Series later this afternoon.
