Our Kevin Burress is on the job tonight over in Grayson County for a Dixie All-Star showdown that was nearly 90 minutes late getting underway.

” We were nearly an hour and a half late starting. Carroll County All Stars playing Galax. 0 to 0 in the bottom of the 1st as we come for our first plate appearances. “

The young Lady π© in the middle of this photo π· is one of the ball players that might be up past her normal bedtime π tonight.
” Going to the top of the 2nd, Carroll is up 4 to 0 !”
The set-up for the picnic started at 3pm and the event officially started at 6pm.
Lucas Dalton blessed the meal that awaited the team and everyone in attendance helped themselves to an enjoyable meal.
Almost 100% retired Darrin Mathews and his beautiful Bride π° were part of the crowd and Mrs. Mathews promised she would be able to keep her husband busy with a list of things that filled a page, both front and back.
Emma Harman might have been the absentee player with the most colorful reason as the second baseman is currently performing with the dance π team on a cruise π³ ship.
Carlie Beamer and Natalie Burress took home the longest drive π to attend award as the duo returned from a Church outing up in Roanoke and were headed back afterwards.
Our host and hostess, Coach Nester and Donna headed out to Independence to cheer on the little ones after all the cleanup was complete at the picnic Pavillion.
The evening did also allow the passing out some more of our 10 Fab Four Photos π·

Editing Note :
Just a small correction if I may, this isn’t travel ball, this is Dixie All Stars from Rec ball! Love the article
Carroll County wins in 4 by mercy rule 13 to 3. Great game by the girls with great hitting, pitching and defense!
