BOERNE, TX – The Boerne little league baseball team is on their way to the Little League World Series, but not before a Texas-style send-off to wish them well.
The city of Boerne — buzzing with excitement as they cheer them on all the way.
The Boerne little league baseball team is on their way to the Little League World Series, but not before a Texas-style send-off to wish them well.
Boerne’s little league baseball team is going dancing; fans, getting a front-row seat to wish them well ahead of their last practice at home Thursday before they hit the road to Williamsport, Pennsylvania.
“It’s insane knowing that after a few years this is happening again with Boerne and just with all of us as a small town it’s really happy and just exciting,” one fan said.
“It’s great to have a team that does so well and coaches that coach them so well,” another added.
Police escorted the team through the heart of downtown on Main St. It’s fairytale, but a court battle earlier this week threatened to take it all away.
“I think they showed a lot of character in ignoring what was happening and doing what they needed to do.”
Boerne punched its ticket to the Little League World Series while in Waco on Monday, or so they thought.
Tulsa’s team filed a temporary restraining order, potentially forcing the team to play another game if upheld. A judge quickly cutting that short after Tulsa was found as having ineligible player.
Both fans and families are now moving past that and looking ahead to what they want to happen next.
“Seeing Boerne win. Seeing them compete good. Boerne on top,” a group of boys said.
The team is riding the high all the way to Williamsport — while repping for the Southwest region and the Texas Hill Country.
