Keystone Junior All-Stars off to Michigan for LL World Series

BALD EAGLE TOWNSHIP, PA – And they’re off, heading west, the Keystone Junior Little League team leaving at sun-up Friday for the Little League World Series in Taylor, MI.

The team and coaches pulled out from the WalMart parking lot in a Susquehanna Transit charter, off to the final chapter in a remarkable journey that included a 6-game comeback run to the Pennsylvania title in DuBois, then a 4-0 blitz at the Eastern regional tournament in Freehold, NJ. Family and friends gathered to see the team departure; many will follow to Michigan to cheer on the Clinton County team.

Keystone is to open play Monday, Aug. 15 at Heritage Park in Taylor at 2 p.m. against the winner of a Sunday game between Londown South (4-0) of South Riding, VA, and the US Central representative (which had not been listed as of Friday morning). The Keystone opener will be available on ESPN+. The tournament will continue through Sunday, Aug. 21.

A GoFundMe has been set up to assist family members for their expenses in supporting the team at the World Series.https://gofund.me/a9523f84
