🏆 TOURNAMENT CHAMPS! 🏆

Virginia Vanguard 14U brought home the trophy this weekend, finishing with a hard-fought 6–3 win over Appomattox! Caspian Bennett came through with a clutch two-run single to put Vanguard ahead, Grayson Vaughan earned the win, and Jacob Voyles shut down the game with two scoreless innings in relief. 💪⚾

Earlier, the boys powered past Virginia Elite 10–0. The bats collected 11 hits, the defense didn’t commit a single error, and Jacob Voyles was lights out on the mound - allowing just one hit and no runs over four innings while striking out six. Grayson Vaughan drove in four runs, and Voyles, TJ Martin, and Camden Belako each had two hits. Walker Bradley swiped two bases!

What a weekend of energy, grit, and teamwork. Way to go, Vanguard! 🏆🔥

Congratulations to our Virginia Vanguard 16U team on their runner-up finish! The boys won four of their six games during this weekend’s two-day tournament in Salem and represented Vanguard with pride and integrity throughout.

We’re proud of their hard work, teamwork, and the way they carry themselves on and off the field. Great job, Vanguard! ⚡️⚾️

Wow! What a Saturday for our Vanguard 14U boys! They traveled to Richmond for the USSSA Go Yard Showdown, won all three games, and brought home the championship! 🏆

The boys played great, had fun, and made us proud. A special congratulations to Gabe Cross, who took home the home run trophy with an over-the-fence home run! ⚾️

Thank you to our parents for giving up your Saturday to cheer from the ball fields, and to our amazing coaches for their guidance, calm strength, and commitment to excellence. We’re so grateful for this baseball community!

Go Vanguard! 💙⚾️🇺🇸

What a tournament weekend for Virginia Vanguard!

Our 16U team battled hard and finished as tournament runners-up! We’re incredibly proud of their determination and strong showing.

Our 14U team was ready for another day of baseball, but Sunday’s games were rained out - much to everyone’s chagrin! 😭

Our 13U players are having fun, working hard, and learning so much. For many of them, this is their first experience playing travel baseball - or even playing on the larger field.

Development takes time, and victories aren’t measured only by the number in the win column. They’re also found in the friendships being built, the personal growth that happens day by day, and the attitudes they display when things don’t go their way.

We are so proud of all three teams for exemplifying the Vanguard Way and leading the charge with excellence, effort, and attitude.

The future is bright, and we’re excited for all the amazing things still to come!

Let’s go, Vanguard! ⚾️💙❤️

It’s a BIG weekend for Virginia Vanguard - all three of our teams are taking the field! ⚾️

Our 16U team went 2–0 in Martinsville- the comeback kids did it again! Our 14U team went 1–1 in Fredericksburg against some very competitive teams and showed tremendous heart and determination.

Tomorrow, our 13U team takes the field in Bridgewater, and we can’t wait to watch them compete!

What a great showing from our Vanguard players so far. We are incredibly proud of these boys, how hard they played, and the way they continue to represent our organization.

Tomorrow is going to be fun! Let’s Lead the Charge! 💪⚾️
