submitted by Jeffrey S. Emanuelson The New England Colonials Baseball Club U14 team capped off a successful spring season, in which the team compiled an overall 32-5 record with a strong, second-place finish in the U14 New England AAU tournament during the weekend of July 8-10. The Colonials compiled wins over the Quincy Future Stars, Plympton Crush, Cape Cod Buccaneers, Saugus Silver Hawks, and the Triple Play All Stars before losing in the championship game to the Uxbridge Green Monsters. After completing the regular season with a 12-0 conference record and earning the number-one seed, the Colonials hosted the opening pool play round at Alvirne High School on Friday and Saturday. In an 8-5 win over the Plympton Crush, Tyler Butler and Zach Byers each pitched three strong innings. A sensational running catch in right by Sawyer Trask highlighted the strong defense.

2-4, scoring two runs and setting the table for the rest of the line-up. Greg Emanuelson led the team with strong defense behind the plate and added a key RBI hit in the four-run third inning. In the game 3 win over the Cape Cod Buccaneers, Sawyer Trask and Derek Hudson combined to pitch five innings, giving up only one earned run. Eric Damphousse threw some leather with a diving catch in centerfield and pitched in with his bat with a long triple to center and then scored on a throwing error. Tyler Butler hit a key two-out, two-run single in the sixth inning to solidify the win for the Colonials. With the number-two seed for the


playoffs in hand, Sunday brought a trip to Uxbridge, MA. First up in the quarterfinals were the Silver Hawks from Saugus, MA. The Colonials were ready early, jumping out to an 8-1 lead after the first inning and finishing with a strong, 11-5 win. Derek Hudson


pitched a complete game five-hitter. Drew Sanborn paced the attack with two hits and three RBIs. Brett Shiffer added two hits and Mitch L’Hussier added a hit and solid infield defense. Next up was the All Star Triple Play in the semifinals. With the temps in the 80s and low 90s, the Colonials battled hard, coming from behind several times throughout the game to an improbable, 10-9 win in eight innings. The Triple Play got out to a 5-0 lead after two innings. Relief pitching took over from there, limiting the damage to just one run over the next five innings. The Colonials battled the whole game, chipping away at the lead with two runs in the fifth, one in the sixth, and two in the bottom of the seventh to send the game to an extra frame. Highlighting the comeback in the bottom of the seventh was a triple by Adam Floyd, followed by perfectly executed squeeze bunt by Mitch L’Hussier with two strikes on him and


two outs in the frame. With the game tied at seven, the Triple play scored three in the top of the eighth. Then, on came the Colonials in the bottom of the frame. By rule, extra innings begin with runners on first and second with no outs. The Colonials scored four runs in hits by Derek Hudson, Zach Byers, a sacrifice bunt by Greg Emanuelson, and a bases-loaded walk by Adam Floyd to win the game. In the championship game, which began 20 minutes after the final out of the previous game, the Colonials were obviously physically and emotionally drained from the last contest. The team from Uxbridge built an early commanding lead and never looked back. What began as a 92-team open division in early spring ended with a number-two finish for this fine group of young men, compiling an impressive, 5-1 record en route to finals. Next up this summer for the Colonials is the U15 Manchester
