Good afternoon RJ,

Meanwhile, in Coolidge, the Coolidge 12U Young Bucks baseball team won a state championship and will head to Hawaii in July. This year, the team stands undefeated at 18-0, earning the right to represent Arizona in Oahu, Hawaii, from July 13-21. It will compete in the Pacific Southwest Cal Ripken Regional Tournament.
