Plymouth Cal Ripken All-Stars Plays Regional Finals Tonight

The Plymouth 9U All-Star team is on an epic run - all the way to the New England Regionals.

The youngest of four Cal Ripken All-Star squads for Plymouth are undefeated as they move on to the New England Regionals which takes place Aug. 3-8 in Walpole, NH. The first stop for the Plymouth 9U team was winning the District 8 title over arch-rival South Plymouth, 7-2, according to Brian Fabry of the Boston Herald. 

Coach Cabby Brini is excited about tonight's (Aug. 8) games:

"It has been a Magical ride with '12' Special 9 year olds that deserve this so much," Brini wrote on Facebook. "They earned the right to play in the Championship game tonight (5pm & 8pm) as they have fought & clawed their way through the losers bracket by sending 4 States home packing in pressure filled elimination games. Though they know they still have a job to do, they should also know that they are CHAMPIONS no matter what the outcome of tonight's game."

This is not the first time a Plymouth team in the 9U Division has advanced to the Cal Ripken New England Regionals as they went to the Final Four in 2011 giving Plymouth NE Regional representation twice in the last three years.
