Mudcats Win San Mateo's Little League City Championship!
Zack got drafted to the AAA division of Little League this year, by passing two years in the major and playing a league largely filled with older, more capable kids. His coach had managed at the A level for the last two years, where Zack had been playing and his strategy was to build a AAA team composed of last year's All Stars from the single A division.
Well, it was a pretty good strategy for today that team, the Mudcats, won the City Championship! Finishing second after regular season play, the Mudcats were the only American League team to survive the first round of the City Championship Tournament with the National League teams. It took three games to win the tournament and the city championship, against teams with kids that looked like the shaved and did mechanical work on their own cars, but they prevailed!
The Mudcats have been a great team, filled with good kids who have a lot of heart. Congratulations to Zack and all the Mudcats!
