Hi Peter, our State Tournament came to an end on Thursday. Montesano Little League placed 4th in state. The boys hoped for a bid at the Little League World Series but not this year.

Project Delay
Sorry no updates guys. My son has been playing on the 11-12 Majors Little League Baseball District Team. We've been at the Washington State Tournament in Bellevue since Saturday.
