Teams and winners competed for Gold, Silver, and Bronze medals to be awarded in each age division.
“It was actually supposed to be a two day tournament. We showed up ready to play ball yesterday. The weather kind of took that away from us, so we stayed and had a team bonding night and had a lot of fun. We decided to show up today. It turned into a one day tournament and we’re here ready to play some ball,” said Crystal Scott, Baseball mom.
The State Games of Tennessee is an Olympic style, multi-sporting event that allows for athletes of all ages and skill levels to compete.
