Read the local Texas and Ventura newspaper account of Nationals in Midland on the 12U Blog Page.

Bonita Valley 10U Take 3rd Place at Nationals in St. Louis!!!

Bonita Valley 12U are the 2006 National Champions defeating WAGS twice 2-1, 7-3 in the Championship Game.

Details to follow after all the partying!!!

A note from the 10U team in St. Louis. There will be a news piece on them at 11:00pm Pacific on Channel 10 News. Be sure to watch and someone record it so that those that miss it can catch it later :)

Soida Palacios finally gave birth this morning. Read the details in the 10U Blog...

Double Elimination Bracket Play begins today and we're ready!! Both teams thank you for the support you have given by "watching" the games and reading the blogs on-line. BTW, your guestbook entries have been received but I'm unable to process them until I get back. If you want to send a e-mail greeting, I'll post it. -- Sam!

Looks like both the 10's & 12's are going to start pool play tomorrow. Check the blogs for daily updates. If there reception at the fields then you can watch the play-by-play. :)

Our 10 and 12 teams arrived safely at their destinations and are un-packed and ready to roll! I've put links at the top of this page so that you can follow the daily blog for the teams if they report!

The 10U and 12U head off to Nationals in a couple of days. The 10's head off to St. Louis and the 12's go to Midland, Texas. Girls, do your best and remember that you're representing Bonita Valley.

We will be doing play-by-play for both the 10 and 12 teams if we get broadband reception at the fields. Just click on the link on the right under the column heading for 10U, or 12U. If possible, we will also be showing little video highlights.

Going into the final week for their season, our 10T and 12T went up to represent Bonita Valley up in the N. Torrance tournament and here's how they did...

The 10T faced Cypress early in pool play and barely edged them 3-2. They turned it up a notch and beat the next three teams (Simi, Santa Ana, and the host H. Torrance) to make it back into another Championship Game versus Cypress. Motivated by their earlier pool game, BV 10T came out on top 15-4. Good Job and awesome season!

BV finished in 3rd place with losses only to Laguna Niguel A (who is going to Nationals and beat our A team in Poway) and Downey A who made it to State Torunament. In the North Torrance game, BV scored 7 in the last inning to fight back and win against the host team and keep its season alive and make it to semi-finals versus Downey's tough A team. BV had a back and forth game against Downey right down to our last out but came up just short of making it to the finals. The girls earned some very nice medals which was a great way to wrap up our season.

The girls had a great season and made it to Sunday and the brackets in all 9 tournaments they played. Thanks for all your hard work girls and for never giving up. You played amazing this sumnmer.

Awesome job !!
Coach Ross

Our 10T and 12T teams are heading up to North Torrance for their final tournament of the season. Let's wish them luck up there! Here's a link to their games this weekend. 10T/12T Schedule

The Murrieta tournament held over this weekend reached over 100 degrees. We sent four teams; for two teams this would be their final tournament 8U/14U. The remaining two - 10U and 12U would get a taste of the heat that they would be experiencing in Midland/St. Louis.

The 8U team had a resurgence since Districts reaching the Championship game in each of their remaining tournaments. In the finals BV faced Menifee and trailed early but weren't able to get back into the groove. The finished 2nd!

Our 10U team had an interesting game situation - trying to play in near darkness in pool play versus Hart (3rd Place State). The game was called in the 3rd inning for safety reasons (Hart won 10-7). BV faced them again in the semi-finals and lost 2-5. Chances are good that they might face each other again in St. Louis. Overall finish in Murrieta 3rd.

Looks like our 10T team out in Downey had a marathon game this weekend (3 hours or so and going ITB). As many may not be aware, our Silver teams have been playing in many Gold division tournaments. They have taken 1st place, a 2nd place and this weekend in Downey battled their way into the Championship game finishing with a 2nd place trophy! Awesome Job, girls!

The 12U team finished 1st in pool play and played three games on Sunday to reach the Championship game versus Poway "B" a.k.a. Poway Emeralds. BV won 16-0 to take the 1st place trophy. The Poway girls had fun despite the outcome and were particularly fascinated by "Barbie." :)
Of note this tourney, "Adri" and Celina pitched for the 1st time this tournament. We were missing a couple of our pitchers and they joined "Mommies" to round out our pitching staff this weekend from their regular positions. Heather was catcher for a couple of innings and Ariel switched out with Jaycee for a stint and Anissa was positioned at 3rd. Just goes to show what a group of talented girls we have at Bonita.

Our 14's showed that they could come back and win when they were down 3-1 late in the Murrrieta Game. They won 4-3 and then faced a team that had blanked them out in their three last games - Poway Diamonds.
BV jumped on top early and held to win 3-1. In the Championship the 14's played and won 8-1 over Valley Wide to end the season with a 1st place win!

Good job to all our teams for doing a great job(2nd, 3rd, 1st, 1st) in the heat this weekend and the parents for keeping them as cool as possible!

The Downey Pools/Schedules/Brackets are posted on the download page. The Murrieta Tournament link for Pools/Schedule/Brackets

Today was championship Sunday for both the 10U and 12U teams. They both went undefeated to win it all!

The 10's faced Hart Gold in the semi-finals and defeated them 3-1 to advance to the championship game. South Hungington Beach came out from the loser's bracket to play Bonita Valley and lost 5-0. Bonita Valley 10U "B" State Champions. They will be off to St. Louis, Missouri (7/31-8/6) to compete in the the Western "B" 10U National Championship Tournament!

The 12's played Peninsula, a team they faced in the District Championship and Bonita Valley prevailed 5-0 to headed to the championship game. PQ came out of the loser's bracket and it seemed like old times with a common adversary. The 12's defeated them 15-4 to win the championship. Bonita Valley 12U "B" State Champions. The 12's will be going to Midland, Texas (7/31-8/6) to compete in the the Western "B" 12U National Championship Tournament!

Bonita Valley's 8U team made it to the Championship game at Rancho Bernardo by beating RB 3-0. In the Championship Game, they met up against a tough Simi Valley team. BV 8U finished 2nd with a score of 3-5. Congrats 8U!

Our 12T beat a tough Simi Valley Gold team (9-7) in 3 ITBs to finish 3rd in the Rancho Bernardo Tourney. Great Job, 12T!!!

Congrats to both the 10U and 12U for qualifying for Nationals today! They are still alive in the winner's bracket and are one game from the championship game. The 14U team came one game short of qualifying for Nationals after their loss to WAGS 4-1. Their overall finish was 10th.

Many games are running behind schedule.

The 14U lost their opening game 0-2, to Poway. They play 4 games tomorrow starting with (Vista at 9:45am). BV 12's (see play-by-play) opened play by getting two runs in the 7th to win over PYL. Next game at 3:00pm versus Chino Hills. The 10's play at 1:15pm -v- West Garden Grove and you can watch the play-by-play. See link at right.

The 10's won their second game versus West Garden Grove, 3-0 and play Chino Hills tomorrow at 1:15pm. The 12's beat Chino Hills today by the score of 13-5 to advance. They play the winner of the South Huntington Beach versus Murrietta at 3:00pm.

The girls were at the opening ceremonies tonight at 6:00pm and now have the rest of the day to rest up for the Saturday games.

Bonita Valley took three teams into the Championship today on the 4th of July! The day started off with the 8U team facing Vista. The 8U team were close all the way but couldn't pull it off and lost 2-1. The 10U team faced a common rival again - Santee. They've met in the Championship game FOUR times. Each time, a very close game and this was close also. But in the end, BV prevailed 2-0. In the 12U game, BV faced WAGS and both teams held each other scoreless for 3 innings, until Bonita got on a roll and scored 5 runs to win the game in the middle innings. Good Job, Bonita!

We tried out something new this weekend - VIDEO. Although it was only a test to see how things would work, we had 74 visitors watch the first day (Monday vs Peninsula), and 24 watch the championship game (12U vs WAGS). I appreciate all the constructive feedback! Overall, a successful test :)

Bonita Valley had all four teams in the semi-finals and two made it to the finals (10U and 12U). The 10U team took its fourth straight 1st place trophy by taking out the host Poway(7-6) and then Santee in ITB (6-5). Santee will be at District next week.

Congrats to our 10T team for taking 2nd place at the University City tournament in the Gold division.

The 12U team faced Poway in the semis and advanced to the finals after winning 3-1. BV took out Laguna Niguel at Rancho last year (finals) and it appears as it was still stewing in their minds. They blasted out to a 7-1 lead but BV would not turn over and quit. The girls fought back and had several opportunities to take the lead but lost 7-5.

The 8U team started off slow in pool play but came back together and made it into the semis by beating Laguna Niguel 8-6. Poway took them out in the next game 6-1.

Our BV 14U team finished 2nd in pool play and faced Ramona but fended off the challenge 6-5. They lost to Scripps Ranch in the semis.

All Games Cancelled For Wednesday....

The teams that were playing on Fields 2 and 3 left the bases out last night. All teams playing the final game of the day need to be sure that the bases are put back in storage. Those bases are expensive and we're lucky they were still there this afternoon when we checked the field conditions.

I helped my dad sort and page all the photos so you'll have something to look at while it's raining. Have fun! -Heather G.

We had a great opening day! As usual Discovery Park and the parking lots/streets were packed and nobody got tickets!

Mike Centrullo our league President opened up the ceremonies by introducing the young ladies that sang the national anthem (Please send me their names), ASA Officials, Chula Vista Councilman, boardmembers and then The Kohl family presented this years' TOM KOHL Award receipient - Donna Provencher, for all her hard working for the league all these years! All the T-Ball and Rookie teams paraded around the field for all to see our future all-stars. The Mini-Minor, Minor, and Major teams were acknowledged and finally the bullpen raffled off a bunch of goodies.

All the sponsors and vendors were there, but I missed out on the sub sandwiches! Did you get your sweatshirts and other BVWear? Better get them - it gets cold out there at those 5:00pm, and 7:00pm games. Also, did you notice we got a new snack bar menu? This Saturday they will have chicken Caesar Salads, $3.50 and breakfast burritos as well. Speaking of snack bar; everyone showed up for their duty. Keep it up, we need our volunteers to help things run smoothly!

For the girls, the real start was at 10:30a for the 'Girls Rock' and 'Navy Seal' game. The other divisions playing at both EastLake, and Discovery Fields got their first game jitters out of the way. Remember that this is recreational ball - you're playing to learn, and have fun. Enough of my rambling, playball!!!

Managers/Coaches please send in your scores after the game (email, phone, IM, telegraph, or smoke-signals but get them in)

More information about the Padre -v- Dodger game will be posted soon. Snap up those tickets because they go FASSSTTT!
