11u
Game 1
RI Raptors 3/ Cougars 2
The CT Cougars 11U gave up two divisional wins to the 0-4 Raptors April 18. Zack Fielder records the loss with a fine effort on the mound with 10 strike outs. A timely triple for Lonardo of the Raptors combined with a pick off attempt at third gone wrong sealed the deal for the visiting Raptors.
Game 2
RI Raptors 12/Cougars 2
An incredible nine-run scoring spree in the first inning spelled disaster for the Cougars in the second game of the double header. A valiant effort by Adam Trudeau in the 4th with a single at bat and three strike outs on the mound held off the mercy rule ending to the fifth inning. Brody Adams creamed a right center stand up triple to drive in Trudeau and stole home on a pass ball to give the Cougars one more inning of life.
