    District Champions

    Hydration tips?

    Actual hydration is a complex undertaking. Water is absorbed in 2 main places in the body, the stomach and the large intestine. The body need the foods we eat to be in a very liquidy state to move it through the digestive system. So when we eat, the stomach will digest some of the food...

    Six-Man only Stadium

    The Priddy field is nice and I like the area. When they get stands, pressbox, restroom etc..., it will be a great place to have games. Here is a pic of Leakey vs Perrin game played there this year.
