Six Palisades teams participated in the Cheviot Hills Memorial Day tournament May 24-25, three of them made the finals and the 9U squad won the championship.
Coached by Kambiz Kamdar, Karl House and Steve Bergman, the 9Us finished 4-0 and won three games via the mercy rule, including the final, a 15-5 victory over La Canada that avenged a defeat in last year’s championship game
The 9U’s talented roster was comprised of James Kamdar, Luca House, Spencer Bergman, Parker Atwood, Gavin Morrow, James Murphy, Henry Janneck, Decland Donahue, Ford Hill, Grey Schiff, Sam Schiff, Noah Mehring and Graham Aris.
Palisades’ 12U and 13U teams also advanced to the championship game of their divisions.
Unable to play on the four diamonds at the Field of Dreams because of damage resulting from the Palisades Fire in January, the PPBA joined the Cheviot Hills Pony League this season and the World Series in each age group was completed before the Memorial Day weekend. The Broncos had their own bracket of solely PPBA teams and the Orioles, coached by David Hoffman, won it. The Cheviot Rangers won the Miustang Division but the Orioles won the “PPBA” Championship. Baldwin Hills won the Pinto title but the Cardinals coached by Andrew Kirsh, won the “PPBA” Championship.
