SOLL 5 The 11 year old national team came up
just short in the championship game. The coaching staff wants to personally
thank each and every player on the team. We could not have asked for anymore out
of these boys. 8 games in 9 days is a lot to ask out of these young men.....but
they came thru like champions.
