This week is the biggest week of the season for our entire TEAM. Back in June, at our goal setting BBQ's, we set out to accomplish something that has only been done once in the history of the Continental League Championships. That goal was to sweep all 6 races at the League meet. This week is our opportunity to see our hard work payoff in a big way!
