2018 was an exceptional year for the Stars program with multiple teams successfully competing at the highest level of Empire baseball. The 10U & 12U Stars teams both won the New Hampshire Bobcats Memorial Day Classic playing against some of the top baseball talent in the New England area. The 12U Stars team also won the Bring it & Swing it Labor Day Tournament in Guilderland while the 10U Stars team finished as the runner-up for their age group. Our 11U Stars team also had a strong showing finishing 3rd in both tournaments. Most importantly, the players worked hard, had fun, strengthened friendships and continued to develop their baseball skills. We are looking forward to building on 2018 with a strong 2019 season.
