The Vero Beach Classic saw 90 teams and another 70 + college coaches/scouts but the only ones left on Tuesday morning was the two Elite Squad 16u Teams. (Prime, Slugger)
Both teams headed into the 16u championship game each 6-0 during pool play and playoffs. Slugger would take an early 1-0 but Prime would respond late and take a 4-2 lead heading into the bottom of the six. Slugger responded with a 4 run inning to capture the title 6-4. This was a back and forth matchup between two great teams, you would expect nothing less from those boys.
The game could have gone either way, but more importantly for our organization was not who won that game, but to have BOTH 16u teams be the last ones standing and share the VBC title together.
Congratulations to both the Elite Squad Prime and Slugger 16u on a great tournament!
