It was a weekend families in El Segundo will never forget!
The El Segundo 12U All-Stars made it all the way to the finals of the Little League World Series, and beat a team from Curacao yesterday 6-5 with a walk-off home run in the bottom of the 6th (the final inning)!!
Louis Lappe had the game-winning home run and watching the video of the walk-off home run was so cute! Loved seeing all the kids cheering and jumping around!
Ryan Lopez, who coaches a lot of these players on the El Segundo traveling team…separate from the Little League team...joined us this morning and talked about all the emotions everyone was feeling!
The kids passion and hard work paid off and we are so excited for them!
It's also not easy for these families going back and forth from SoCal to Williamsport, Pennsylvania…flights, hotels, meals…it’s a lot. So a GoFundMe was set up…it’s called “Support the El Segundo Little League All-Stars” if you want to support!
