    I watched the last two games. Great bunch of kids who played super after losing their opener to Hawaii. #22 has MLB future written all over him. I hope Maineri was watching.

    Is 22 the Russeau kid? He hit .779 for the series.

    Yes, 22 is Reese Roussel. The captioning said that his favorite team is the LSU Tigers! I would love for him to come to LSU. Unfortunately, something tells me he will have another option ($$$). But he is just a young kid and anything could happen. You never know which other kids on that team could end up at LSU. I love seeing great Little League baseball programs in Louisiana. The future for LSU baseball looks very bright.

    I don't believe this to be correct. In fact, I believe there are a few that have played in the LLWS, CWS, and MLBWS
