Congratulations to our 5 Star Midsouth 2024 National team on winning the Music City East Cobb Summer Slam. One of the most underrated events of the summer, this event, crawled with strong teams in every pool. To describe how tough this pool was 3 out of the 4 games that the 2024s won were by 1 run. In total out of the 6 games on the weekend, 5 of them were decided by only 1 run. Here is how the scores went:

Game 1 – Complete Game 15U National (0) vs 5 Star Midsouth 2024 National (10)

Game 2 – 5 Star Midsouth 2024 National (3) vs East Cobb 615 (2)

Game 3 – 5 Star Midsouth 2024 National (2) vs Mad Mavericks Matthews (1)

Game 4 – East Cobb Astros 16U (2) vs 5 Star Midsouth 2024 National (3)

Game 5 – 5 Star Midsouth 2024 National (3) vs East Cobb 15U/16U Texas Orange (2)

Game 6 – Mad Mavericks Dickey (1) vs 5 Star Midsouth 2024 National (2)

Pitching & defense was the story this weekend. Pitchers combined for a 1.02 ERA to go along with 39 Ks to 17 BBs. Defensively the boys carried a .950 fielding percentage over the weekend. The fellas get a much-deserved week off before heading up to Knoxville to play in the PG Knoxville Invitational. They carry a 12-1-1 record.
