Congrats to the Kearney team. It's very exciting as we have had a couple of teams from Hagerstown make it to Williamsport over the years, the last one just a few years ago.
"Baseball happens to be a game of cumulative tension but football, basketball and hockey are played with hand grenades and machine guns." John Leonard
Kearney LL Team getting ready to represent the Midwest in the Little League World Series at 7:00 Central time on ESPN . Playing a team from Tennessee representing the Southeast.
Well,the colors haven't helped, nor has anything else. Nebraska getting embarrased by
Tennessee so far. Kind of reminds you of UNL's unimpressive debut season in the Big Ten baseball season.
Keep in mind this Kearney team was only a mediocre travel team in the 2nd highest division in USSSA. There are Nebraska teams that would've dismantled this Kearney team, but those teams don't play Little League, they only play USSSA, so they are not eligible for the LLWS tournament.
The Kearney team is #8, Kearney Titans Orange. Click on the team for more details.
"I told him to be patient, that these things have a way of working themselves out." -- Tom Osborne to Steve Taylor when Taylor voiced concerns about the direction of the football program under Bill Callahan and Steve Pederson.
Yes, the Kearney boys took a beating. Oh, well. Perhaps they can take the experience home and build even more to the future. Maybe even get a win next year?
Kearney and the State of Nebraska are proud of this history making team!
