We're very proud of the team's performance in Des Moines over the weekend. The team went undefeated Friday and Saturday and entered Sunday's play as first seed. This was a great accomplishment in and of itself as they had to defeat the very tough "Sticks" team from Waukee.
Sunday started with a victory over the Grandview Stars landing the team in the final four, but the Heat was not able to pull off a second victory over the Sticks in a subsequent game. The Sticks went on to win the championship over the Mariners while the Heat settled for 4th place in a close game (13-12) against the Urbandale Mudcats that was called in the 5th due to time-limit rules.
The weekend started with high temperatures and ended as a windy dustbowl!
A highlight was the state championship win by the QC Heat's 13AA team. Excellent! Congratulations!

Welcome to the Road to the World Series!
The Quad City Heat Baseball 9U team is heading to the USSSA World Series in Orlando at the Wide World of Sports Complex in August. This team is made up of 9 & 10 year olds from America's Heartland - The Quad Cities (Iowa and Illinois).
The Quad Cities is located 3 hours west of Chicago.
These kids live, eat and breathe baseball! The team qualified for the World Series at a tournament in Detroit, Michigan the last weekend in May.
