Lake Mary Little League’s 9‑10‑11 Baseball All‑Stars capped a flawless summer by capturing the State Championship in DeLand, marking the program’s first ever title and underscoring the town’s rising baseball pedigree.
The team finished the season 12‑0, dominating pool play with a 5‑2 victory over Lakewood Ranch and a 3‑0 shutout of Dr. Phillips, then crushed the NS All‑Stars from Coral Springs 16‑0 and the WBLL 11‑All‑Stars from Lake Worth 10‑2.
Austin Davis emerged as a offensive catalyst, launching two home runs and driving in five runs, while pitcher Jaxson Foxx delivered a steady outing that kept the opposition at bay.
On the softball side, the 12U squad, now branded as Southeast, earned a spot in the World Series in Greenville, North Carolina, for the second straight year, continuing the town’s recent surge on the national stage.
A Glimpse at the Upcoming Tournament
The 10‑11‑12 Baseball team, despite improving to 8‑0 in the postseason, fell short of the Southeast Region Tournament for the third consecutive year, losing 6‑0 in the State Championship Game to Chaires‑Capitola Little League from Tallahassee.
Weather interruptions added drama, with Lake Mary posting a 10‑0 run‑rule victory over St. Petersburg and a 3‑2 win over The Dale 12U from Fort Lauderdale before the final.
Looking ahead, Florida, North Carolina and the champions of South Carolina, Virginia, West Virginia, Georgia, Tennessee and Alabama will converge in Wilson, North Carolina, for the Tournament of State Champions hosted by Wilson City Little League.
