2019 Little League World Series Regionals Preview
Fifty-three American teams — two from California, two from Texas, and one from each other state and Washington DC — of 12-and-under ballplayers will compete across eight regions; the winner of each region advances to the Little League World Series.
“A mixed bag of emotions and thoughts for sure,” Newark, Delaware, manager Frank Thornton told the Newark Post after his squad bested Lower Sussex to win the state championship and reach the Mid-Atlantic Regional in Bristol, Connecticut. “Elation, obviously, for these boys. Witnessing them experiencing and accomplishing the results of the hard work and dedication each and every one of them put in. Our motto from the start has been ‘hard work pays off.’
He added: “Feeling proud of our coaches Charlie Porter, who played on Newark National’s 1992 team that advanced to regionals, Jeff Marks, and Darren Kelley for all of the preparation they put in getting these guys ready and prepared to get to this point. Happiness for all of the parents and families that rode the wave of emotion during each game with us. A sense of pride for being a part of a great league as I looked out and saw all of our great fans who came out to support us.”
Newark reached the LLWS in 2013, becoming just the second squad from Delaware to play in the worldwide tournament.
Coeur d’Alene will represent Idaho in the Northwest Regional this year. The city’s 2018 squad became the first from Idaho to advance to the LLWS.
“What those boys did last year was fantastic,” manager Robin Franklin said, according to the Coeur d’Alene Press. “But we’re a completely different group of kids. They had 13 kids and three coaches that are completely different than the coaches and kids we have this year. We cheered them on from home, and they’re supporting us now. But we’re not trying to compare or put pressure on our kids. We’re just trying to play one game at a time.”
The Northwest Regional and the West Regional will be held in San Bernardino, California.
“I’m really enjoying having a good time with my friends,” Coeur d’Alene shortstop Zach Bell said, per the Coeur d’Alene Press. “We’ve got a bunch of talented kids that are really unselfish. We’ve got a great defense and hit the ball really well. I’m a little nervous for regionals, but excited as well.”
Bell’s teammate Travis Usdrowski added: “I’ve just enjoyed playing with these guys and getting to know them. It’s really fun to be around these kids. We joke around and have a lot of fun together.”
Overall, teams will qualify out of these eight regions: Great Lakes, Mid-Atlantic, Midwest, New England, Northwest, Southeast, Southwest and West.
