The Fallon Babe Ruth 16U All Stars completed play in the Nevada Babe Ruth 13-16 State Championship Tournament after opening with a 24-7 victory over Sparks and dropping two games to South Tahoe, including a 14-13 loss Saturday. The team now turns its attention to the Pacific Southwest Regional Tournament, which will be held in Fallon July 19-25.
Fallon opened tournament play with a decisive victory over Sparks before facing South Tahoe twice. In the first matchup, Fallon scored in the opening inning before South Tahoe took control with six runs in the second inning and eight more in the third. Fallon held South Tahoe scoreless the rest of the game, but could not overcome the early deficit.
The teams met again Saturday in a much closer contest. Trailing by four runs in the fifth inning, Fallon rallied before falling 14-13.
Fallon received contributions throughout the tournament from Mason White, Raymond Gallio, Samuel Vinsonhaler, Tayven Martinez, Braylon Byrd, Lincoln Neumann, Lucas Yohey, Braxton McAfee, Carter Larson, and Mason Llamas.
South Tahoe claimed the Nevada Babe Ruth 13-16 State Championship Tournament and will represent Nevada at the Pacific Southwest Regional Tournament. Fallon will host the regional tournament July 19-25, with the All Stars competing on their home field against other regional qualifiers.
