The Little League Intermediate Division held its Maryland state tournament in Berlin from July 11th through the 17th. Kent County’s entry finished third. This year being Kent County’s first year as a Little League affiliate, the team was a decided underdog heading into the tournament. The lads from Kent upset teams from Four Counties Little League (MD27 corridor) and Bannker City Little League (Washington, DC) before succumbing a second time to the squad from St Mary’s County.
Adding to this noteworthy accomplishment is the fact that Kent County Youth Baseball retained its age designations from its prior affiliation, meaning it was the youngest team in the field. The team roster: Josh Atkinson, Trevor Bland, Sam Brice, Chris Butler, JP Frey, Kent Green, Nate Hickman, Shane Lyons, Dylan Piposzar, Rick Townsend, Cameron Troup, Buddy Welch, Josh Yeager. Congratulations to them and all of the kids in the division who played well the entire season.
