AV Sports - Youth Baseball

The So Cal Sun Devils competed in the Super Series 14U National Division Veteran’s Day Classic in Moreno Valley 11/17-11/18 and won a berth to the Super Series Winter National Championships in Arizona. The Sun Devils went 4-0 in the tournament and out scored their opponents 33-6. In the championship game they faced the Riverside Revolution (Black) and won the game 6-1. Once again timely hitting and great pitching was the key. This is the second birth in the 14U upper division that they have earned this winter.

Another local team, AV Air Attack, went 1-2-1 in an earlier Super Series tournament, also in Moreno Valley. The team overcame injuries, fatigue, and a very tough bracket to advance to the semifinals before losing. Both losses came to Riverside Revolution by a total of 3 runs. Two of the four games went extra innings, including the 11 inning contest that sent them to the semifinal.

The So Cal Sun Devils won its 3rd championship this winter on January 13th in Riverside. The title earned the boys another World Series berth and they are now ranked # 1 In the nation, along with Arizona Finest Baseball Club Academy, for the Super Series of America 14u National Division. The Sun Devils have won three championships and two second place finishes this winter and are going to compete in the Triple Crown World Series in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina later this year. The team will now take a break from travel ball because 11 of it’s14 players will be moving on to play for their High schools.
