So come the spring season in high school sports, the weekend schedule tends to be a bit on the light side, like this weekend where there are no games, so that gave me an idea for a new segment on Wellesley Sports Blitz that we’ll call Little League Saturday and Little League Sunday recap, where Saturday and Sunday nights I will post little league scores from those nights. Now a quite disclaimer, these are the scores posted to wellesleylittleleague.org, so therefore not every single score of every single game will be on the recap, however if you know of the result of a game not posted please let me know and I’ll add it. Anyway here is the first installment of Little League Saturday Recap!
