ALL STAR BASEBALL TEAM OF THE WEEK
ASBA WEST CHESTER 13U TEAM
By winning its last 2 games and coming back from a 7-1 deficit in the third game, the West Chester 13U team has been named the ASBA Team of the Week.
The team lost 10-4 on Saturday morning before winning 3-0 and 9-8 in the Fathers Day Tournament at the Ripken Complex in MD. Patrick Fagan and Chris Salvey were strong on the mound, with Salvey protecting a lead in the final game against an undefeated Starz team.
Austin Klenotiz, Nick Cambria, Daniel (Shoop) Shupper, and Korey Leidheiser all had 3 hits over the weekend for the ASBA squad.
Head Coach Kirk Wunderlich said, “The kids played hard and never gave up. They kept their heads high all weekend. It’s easy to get down on yourself when you are losing 7-1 (to the Arena Starz), but these guys clawed their way back for a nice victory.”
