The Nottingham Little League 12-year-old All Stars finished their little league careers by winning the District 12 Late Tournament at HTRBA.
And they did it in dramatic fashion.
Needing to win twice against Robbinsville, which only had to win once; NLL trailed 10-2 after four innings but rallied to win 15-12 in seven innings to force the “if” game. They proceeded to win the second game, 12-2, for the championship.
In four seasons of All Star play, Nottingham won three tournaments, including District 12 as 10-year-olds. It reached the District 12 finals as 11 year-olds.
This year’s team consisted of Cameron Cote, Matt Dziubek, Kyan FIlipponi, Jack Hughes, Colin James, Matthew James, Michael Jolly, Jack Lambert, Danny Maher, Braedan Nitti, Michael Smith, Michael Stromberg and Ryan Tash. Bill James was the manager and his coaches were Pat Ryan, Chris Nitti and Chris Tash.
