The all-stars from Hilton Head have been the big winners so far this summer in Diamond Youth Baseball District 8 tournaments on the baseball diamond.
Hilton Head hosted both the 8-and-under coach pitch and 10-and-under Minors tournaments at The Crossings Park, and both host teams breezed to the titles.
The 8u Beaufort American squad fell just short of reaching the championship game, dropping a wild 16-15 game to Bluffton National, which was blanked 8-0 by Hilton Head for the title.
Beaufort’s 10u all-stars also came within one win of reaching the championship, which went to a dominant Hilton Head team that outscored its three opponents 56-0.
The 12-and-under tournament started Monday at Burton Wells Complex, and the Beaufort All-Stars took their opener, hammering Colleton County 13-3 to advance to a winner’s bracket matchup with Hilton Head on Tuesday.
