Travelled all the way to Myrtle Beach to play 3 teams from the Ashland area and one from Central Kentucky? What's the point in that?

The main reason? The kids like enjoy it. They raise every cent for every baseball, bat, grass seed, etc. they work concessions and do fund raisers all off season. Like many programs at small schools they get no money from the school board. It is entirely self funded through the kid's hard work. So if they want to raise a little extra to go to Myrtle Beach and play teams they normally don't, then so be it. Plus, as it's been said above, it allows the team to bond. It's a great experience.
