A Tremendous Finish to the Titans FallBall Season
What an incredible end to a fantastic FallBall season for the Titans organization! Our **Titans 15U** team excelled with a remarkable winning percentage of over .600, while both the **Titans 16U** and **Titans 18U** teams made it to the finals in two separate fall tournaments: the **Titans Montreal Open** and the **Saratoga, NY Tournament**.
Both the **Titans 16U** and **Titans 18U** teams finished the round robin portion of the Saratoga tournament undefeated. Unfortunately, with the quarter-finals cancelled due to weather, the **Titans Black**, led by Coach Jordan, faced a formidable Saratoga team in the semi-finals. Thanks to a brilliant pitching performance by **Xavier Felx**, who dominated the opposing hitters for 7 innings, the Titans secured a shutout victory.
Strong pitching was a key factor in the Titans' success throughout the tournament. **Pierce Johnston** and **L.C. Boisvert** limited the Saratoga Santiago team to just 2 runs in the opener, resulting in a 14-2 win. **Owen Kendall** also impressed with 5 1/3 innings of solid work. In a critical moment, with the bases loaded and the Titans holding a narrow 3-2 lead, **Eli Shiller** stepped up, striking out the first batter he faced and forcing an infield pop-up to secure the save.
In the finals, **Pierce Johnston** took the mound once again, facing off against the **Team Manny's 17U Titans**. A tight game was finally broken open by a clutch 2-RBI double from **Jack Dean**, followed by 2 more RBIs from **Tournament MVP Widley Lalanne**, who played his best baseball of the season.
Both the **Titans 16U** and **Titans 18U** teams demonstrated great teamwork and represented the organization at the highest level throughout the fall season.
As we wrap up the FallBall season, we now shift our focus to indoor training at our facility, where we will work on refining our skills and addressing any weaknesses in preparation for the 2025 season. The Titans are determined to come back even stronger next year!
