Heck of a game!! Lufkin advances

[Guest ECBucFan]

When Lufkin and McAllister Park first met, the pitching staffs were relatively fresh. Despite that, Lufkin won a dramatic 11-10 game. 21 total runs were much more than I expected. Then, after McAllister had to get past New Orleans East Bank, that score was 19-13. So, I thought with depleted pitching staffs, the Lufkin - McAllister Park final would REALLY light up the scoreboard. Final: Lufkin, 2-1. Ain't that crazy?

Lufkin and McAllister Park met in the second round. If I'm not mistaken, both pitched their aces in their first game (I know Lufkin did). These pitchers were not available again until the finals. The Lufkin ace had 14 strikeouts in Lufkin's first game. I don't know how many he had in the finals against McAllister Park, but he pitched a very good game...as did the McAllister Park pitcher.

The Lufkin coach said after the game how surprised he was that the pitching shut down both teams bats.

Lufkin now 2-0 in Williamsport.  Will face North Carolina next, who by the way has thrown back to back no-nos in which the first was a perfect game.

NC looks loaded. Lufkin will have to play a great game to pull it off.  I was surprised to see how NC handled California.

Lufkin win the US Championship in a great game against NC.  Will play Japan tomorrow for the title .

Heck of a comeback. Manager told them to get two runs in the top of the 6th.  Should have asked for more     Lol

Lufkin loses 12-2 to Japan in the championship game.  Congrats on a great season, and for representing the state of Texas in the way you did.

Just wish that Lufkin would have had one of their two ace pitchers. Props to Japan. They were really good.
