Don't forget, as the GNLL 2006 all star team swept the competition at last years sectional tournament, they mercy-ruled the team from Northwest 45, whose league has also enjoyed a tradition of sending teams to the LL World Series and won the American Championship one year. As history shows, teams like the GNLL 2006 East Texas State Champions don't come around all that often, maybe every 20 years or so, as evidenced by the successes of Port Neches LL in the 60's and Port Arthur OSB LL in the 80's, then Groves in 2006. More power to whichever team is strong enough to break that cycle and bring the title back to District 32. If Tomball goes on to win State and reaches the regional quarterfinals as Groves did (or goes even further!), they will have shown themselves to be a team deserving of our accolades. It's a significant achievement attainable only by the very best, of course with the ultimate goal being the LL World Series. Good luck to Tomball, it would be a thrill to see a team from Section 2, East Texas go all the way.
