Laguna seeing All-Star action
Mike Sciacca
Laguna Beach Little League will field two teams this weekend as play
continues in the 9/10 division and gets underway in the 11-year-old
division at the 2005 District 55 All-Star tournament.
Laguna Beach will debut its Majors Division All-Star team Tuesday.
The Junior Division tournament begins on July 9. Each division
tournament features a double elimination.
District 55 oversees 10 Little League programs in south Orange
County: Laguna Beach, Newport Beach, South Irvine, Laguna Niguel,
Saddleback, Lake Forest, Aliso Viejo, Northwood, Laguna Hills and
Rancho Niguel.
In the 9/10 All-Star tournament, Laguna Beach opened play Thursday
by taking on South Irvine American at LaPaz Park in a tournament
hosted by Rancho Niguel Little League. South Irvine American opened
the tournament Tuesday with a 6-5 victory over Newport Beach
American.
A victory over South Irvine American Thursday would advance Laguna
to a second-round winner’s bracket game Sunday at 4 p.m., when they
would play the winner of the Lake Forest American-Laguna Hills game.
A loss would put Laguna into the “Second Chance” bracket for a 9
a.m. game Saturday. Laguna would play the loser of the South Irvine
National-SB game, which was played Wednesday.
In the 11-year-old division tournament, Laguna Beach will take on
Aliso Niguel at 11:30 a.m. Saturday in the second game of the day at
Bonita Canyon Park.
Should Laguna emerge victorious, the team would advance to play
Saddleback at 5:30 p.m. Tuesday in a “Winner’s Bracket” game.
A loss would send Laguna into a “Second Chance” bracket game at
2:30 p.m. on July 9.
Laguna Beach’s Major All-Stars open tournament play at 5 p.m.
Tuesday at Woodfield Park in Aliso Viejo.
Laguna Beach will take on the winner of Saturday’s game between
Northwood and South Irvine-American.
The Laguna Beach Junior All-Star team begins tournament play
against Saddleback at 9 a.m. July 9.
