Sunnybrae’s
sunny days
and Babe Ruth teams
keep township
in the sports spotlight
Whether it’s 11-year-old boys on the little league field in Paramus, pre-teen girls on the World Series diamond in Florida or teenage boys on the Babe Ruth diamond in West Windsor, Hamilton Township has a rooting interest.
While the majority of teams have played their last meaningful games this summer, three entries from the township are still bringing the bats and balls out to some of the biggest tournaments of the year.
Fish4Scores.com will attempt to continue to bring you the results and photos of these exciting events. However, myself and Ken Weingartner are both away on vacation starting Saturday and running through Friday.
So Ken will try and do his part from Lake George and I will do mine from Cape May. We apologize if results and pictures are posted a bit late, but rest assured they will get posted as soon as we can.
Anyway, here’s what’s in store the coming week.
* * *
First off, how about those Sunnybrae 11-year-old Little Leaguers!
Once the 12-year-old District 12 Tournament is over and the winner loses in the sectionals, little league baseball kind of takes a backseat as far as newspaper coverage goes. Sure, they’ll run the results if phoned in, but mostly Babe Ruth has taken center stage, or any 12-year-old team still alive (like Robbinsville softball).
But I, for one, am really happy for this group of Sunnybrae kids. What they did is pretty remarkable when you think about it.
For 52 years, the league has never won a sectional title, and now, boom! Here it is. From a team that nobody thought would even get out of pool play according to manager Greg Beyer.
Sunnybrae has lived in the shadows of Nottingham Little League forever, it seems. So has most of the rest of Mercer County, but when a league in your same town is always earning the glory, it’s kind of tough. It didn’t help that HTRBA has had its share of glory in recent years as well.
But this band of Sunnybrae 11s has put the league on the map during a season when Hamilton Township fell short of winning a district title in any other age group. Not only did Sunnybrae win a district, it has won Section 3.
The states start Saturday.
Good luck boys! Keep making us proud!
* * *
While there is a fresh face carrying the township banner is little league, a familiar group is doing likewise in softball.
The Hamilton Girls Softball Association 12-year-old team will be boarding a plan Thursday for Alachua, Fla., where it will begin pool play Saturday while making its third straight trip to the Babe Ruth World Series.
Provided the plane ride goes smoothly (according to manager Frank Bennett, four girls are making their first flight!), Hamilton will be the first team to play in the showcase as it has a 10 a.m. game with the Midwest Plains champion Saturday.
Hamilton also plays Sunday at 2 p.m., Monday at noon and Tuesday at 5:30 p.m. The top three finishers in each five-team pool will form a six-team, double elimination bracket starting Wednesday.
If history is any indicator, Hamilton should have a lengthy stay, as it won the national title in 2008 and finished third last year.
So, not to repeat myself but, good luck girls! Keep making us proud!
* * *
Finally, the Hamilton Babe Ruth 15-year-olds get underway in Mid-Atlantic Region play Thursday in West Windsor.
Hamilton is attempting to win the league’s first regional title since the Hamilton Nationals won it in 1971. Nottingham won it all in 2008.
The Switlik gang opens pool play at 4 p.m. against Frederick, Md. Hamilton wasn’t dominant in its first two rounds, as it finished second in District One, and again in the Southern New Jersey states.
But the slate is clean and one never knows what can happen once a new tournament begins.
So stop me if you’ve heard this one before but, good luck boys! Keep making us proud!
