After qualifying two weeks ago for the Super Series Baseball of America National Championship in Gulfport, Mississippi, the 9-year-old Oak Park Eagles continued to play strong baseball by overcoming hard-playing opponents in four tough games to win the championship of the Streamwood Mad Dogs Spring Slam 2004 on April 18.  The Eagles came from behind to win three times and were undefeated in four tightly contested games.

“Our boys never gave up,” said Bruce Callahan & Miles Harris, team coaches.  “Strong defense and excellent base running kept us in every game and the players never lost their confidence.”
The Eagles players in this tournament included Griffin Baig, Jack Belcaster, John Callahan, Pat Callahan, Austin Cone, Nick Fascione, Jacob Harris, Mason Hinckley, Jake Johnson, Brian Keegan, Max Menzies, Erik Oxnevad, Jack Sorsa, and Sam Walder.

The Streamwood tournament was the second of the season and the Eagles’ record so far is a very impressive eight wins against only one loss.  The 10 year old Oak Park Eagles team was also successful and finished second in their division.
The Eagles are the official tournament team of Oak Park Youth Baseball/Softball.
