Derek was asked by the Spanish Fork Sugar Kings to go play with them in Evanston, Wyoming.
This was a 10 U tournament so Wesley was too old to play. I was excited for Derek to see how he did with kids his age since he has been playing up. He did really well. He played catcher, short stop, 1st base, short stop, 2nd base and pitcher. He did great at all of those positions. He had some great hits along with 2 homeruns. I was very proud of him!!!
Wesley wasn't quite so excited for him and I think it's just because he wanted to play. Although Wesley was able to go swimming between games on Friday and Derek wasn't. Wesley was able to run around and have some fun too. On Friday night he entered the homerun derby and had some great hits. After the games on Friday we had a firework show sponsored by one of the big firework companies in Wyoming.

The Sugar Kings did a great job in Evanston and took 1st place. They played a team from Evanston twice, Jackson Hole and they beat West Haven (I think from Utah) in the championship game. It was fun to see them do so well because I think the Sugar Kings have struggled a little this year and so the other kids on the team were so excited to finally win a tournament.
