I know this isn't High School baseball, but I would like to extend congratulations to the South Lexington Youth Baseball (SLYB) REBELS !!

 

The Rebels pulled off the "Triple Crown" this year by winning the American Divison & Overall League Regular Season Championship, the SLYB Tournament Championship, & the Lexington City Tournament Championship!

That is a great accomplishment! Congrats!!!

Congrats to those youngsters!

Wait, is this the Shillito Rebels? Because if it is, I was a player on that team back about twelve years ago. We also won the league there when I was a player at South Lexington.

Yes, these Rebels play in the Cal Ripken division at Shillito Park. The previous manager, Steve Prall, is no longer with the team as of last October (2005). Mickey Marshall (Paul Dunbar) is the manager. Rob & Steve Goodpaster are his assistants at SLYB.

Here is a link to a recent article in the Lexington - Herald Leader.

Gotcha. I didn't know Mickey was coaching them now. Didn't he used to help coach up there awhile back or was that at the older league across the way called Dixie?
