“They’re excited,” said Jake Hearron, secretary and treasurer for the team.“We knew we had a good team this year in this age group.”
This season, the team was 3-0 in districts with no hitters, and just went 2-0 in sectionals with no hitters, is heading to Tallahassee at 5-0.
“We’re having fun, and as a board, we’re excited because this gives us a chance to advertise baseball in Coral Springs,” said Hearron.
