"We're Going to Williamsport!"

In a blog entry on July 29 I asked, "is Lake Oswego Little League the next Murrayhill?"

The answer is YES.

Tonight, live on ESPN2, Lake Oswego LL (our "local" team) defeated Kent LL (Washington) in the Northwest Regional final to advance to Williamsport for the LL World Series. For the second year in a row, a team from Oregon AND District 4 will travel to the mecca of Little League and represent our area in the world's best baseball tournament.

The local Oregonian newspaper had a story on the front-page of the sports section about the experience of the Murrayhill LL All-Stars (Beaverton, Oregon) and where the kids are this summer.

Congrats to Lake O! What a sports year for that community...and this chapter is really just beginning!
