Dateline 7/17 After sweeping to the District 4 banner, the North Oakland 9-10s lost two great games at the Section1 tournament in Davis. Saturday, they lost to District 3 Mill Valley 4-3 in the opening game of the tournament. Sunday, they fell 3-2 to District 53 Sonoma. Both games were well played and NOLL rallied almost every inning, but seemed to fall a hit away from breaking each game wide open. Great run, guys!
Dateline 7/12 This afternoon the combined Seniors were eliminated in the Division2 tournament. They finished as one of the last 4 teams standing in all of Northern California; way to go, guys!
District 4 Postscript In 6 tournaments, NOLL and SOLL teams made it to 4 championship games and won two District banners. Through it all, our boys worked hard, had fun and left an indelible mark on baseball diamonds and pizza joints across the East Bay.
