USSSA Beast of the East Recap April 2018

Unfortunately Mother Nature hindered the USSSA’s best-laid plans as rain washed out all games on Saturday and completely wiped out bracket play in the 10u Majors division. Despite that, many games were played on Friday, and bracket play continued on Sunday for all but the 10’s as 5 champions were crowned on Sunday. The Park Sharon Nationals (9u), Minion (12u), and Canes NC – Gallaher (13u) all repeated as champions, defending their fall 2017 Beast of the East titles. With so many top 20 teams in action across all the age groups, there was lots exciting games going on Friday evening and all day Sunday. Here we recap the weekend’s results.
