Summerlin South participated in a parade Tuesday in Williamsport, Pennsylvania, as part of the celebration leading to the Little League World Series.
“It was just a jamboree on wonderfulness,” said coach TJ Fechser, whose team also attended a picnic. “Each team rode on the back of a truck — like a float — and there were 40,000 people on the street. People threw rubber baseballs at the players, who signed them and threw them back.”
The team also hung its nameplate on the large ESPN bracket banner, and there were speeches by former major league pitcher Billy Wagner and Vanderbilt baseball coach Tim Corbin.
