Negaunee Little League Junior Baseball Team is headed to the state tournament

NEGAUNEE, Mich. – The 2021 Negaunee Little League Junior Baseball Team is headed to the Michigan Little League Junior Baseball State Tournament in Saginaw.

The Negaunee Little League Junior Baseball team won the District 11 Championship last week. After a win over Portage Lake, the boys fell to Marquette and had to enter the loser’s bracket. They won their next three games to win the District 11 Championship.

This is the first time in over 10 years that an all Negaunee team has been downstate. Eight teams will compete for the trophy in Saginaw. The team will travel Wednesday July 21st, and the first pitch will be at 9am Thursday morning.

Fundraising efforts are underway to raise money for travel, food and lodging for the boys and coaches. You can support the fundraising efforts by donating to the team’s Go Fund Me account or direct donations to Negaunee Little League (PO Box 164 Negaunee MI 49866).
