"The boys are stil playing on their local teams," Newel says, "some of them are also playing on men's teams in the Huron County Fastball League."

Newell goes on to say, "We have had some exhibiton games. We played Shallow Lake the other night, a double header, so the kids are still spending lots of time on the diamond."
