I believe that KG is a totally new team minus 3 girls.

Heard Acuna is going to be spending a lot of time in 16's this yr. My guess is so will the firecrackers. Being that they probably won't be seen much in 14's can you really count them? I guess we will see at the end of the season. Both are Great teams that will do well in either age group. IMO

A number of the best 14u teams will probably spend time playing 16s, including Firecrackers, Sorcerers, Dirt Dogs, Grapes and Breeze. But if you've seen these teams play, it's quite apparent they all can compete, especially if you're comparing them to the brand new teams moving up. Speaking of teams moving up, I'll be keeping my eye on RR Gold to see how they slide in amongst the top older teams.

It's an all new team, those girls moved up.

The All American Mizuno team has had an impressive start to the season. They haven't faced alot of quality teams but they have been producing some solid innings, offensively and defensively. They weren't on my watch list last season but they are worth taking a look at this season.

How many Mizuno 14u's are there?

[RonaldMcDonald]

I think there is only one. A pure 98 squad. I hear they've only been together since last fall so they have had time to build a core and turn the players into a team. The "we're new" excuse won't play any more. I saw them last weekend and there were alot of good things happening. Keep watching.
