J. Sandy Jones, Commissioner/CEO commented, “We were very pleased to host our largest ever World Series for the 15U age division. It was exciting to have all eleven of our state programs represented in World Series play. I congratulate all of the teams and hope the experience will bring fond memories for everyone associated with the event. Hosting 24 teams in a three-day event is only possible when you have the luxury of a five-field premier playing facility as found at the Sterlington Sports Complex. The logistics for this showcase event were handled locally by Kerry Elee, SSC operator, and Scott Bruscato, Sr. Vice President of Discover Monroe – West Monroe, Louisiana. Serving along with the Commissioner as Assistant Tournament Directors for DBB were Jason Parker, Rick Berry, and Dan Capps. From our hosts, DBB tournament directors, SSC staff, DBB umpires, LSPN Live, and all others associated with the tournament, it proved to be a very successful team effort.”
