LITTLE LEAGUE ROUNDUP: Charlestown Juniors on verge of advancing at state

Silver Creek 13s finish state pool unbeaten, D-V softball eliminated

By GREG MENGELT greg.mengelt@newstribune.com

CLARKSVILLE — Charlestown appeared to be on its way to improving to 2-1 in the state tournament when the poor weather hit Friday.

Charlestown led Fort Wayne Times Corners 11-1 in the fourth inning when play at Clarksville Little League was suspended.

Earlier in the day, Charlestown fell to 1-1 in pool play after a 17-5 loss to South Bend Waggoner in a game that was suspended after Thursday’s poor weather.

Silver Creek’s 13-year-old All-Stars finished pool play unbeaten at the state tournament in Wabash with 20-6 victory over Lowell Friday.  Creek had 19 hits, led by Blake Wurm’s 4-for-4, five-run, five-RBI performance.

The Sellersburg stars will face Wabash today in one state semifinal.  The District V softball All-Stars were wliminated after splitting a pair of games in the Central Region tournament at South Bend on Friday.

Due to the power outage at the News and Tribune offices, no further details are available.  Visit www.newsandtribune.com for more information.

No information was provided for the HYR Seniors at the state tournament at Portage.
