The Carbon Blue Cal Ripken 10-year old All-Stars became the second team from the local area to win a 2016 state championship as they defeated South Sevier 16-4 Thursday evening in Beaver.

Marching through the state tournament without a single loss, the group won a state title for the third consecutive year. The team will now move on and represent Carbon County in the regional tournament in California in two weeks.

This year’s championship team consists of Cameron Vasquez, Quade Henrie, Maizen Prichard, Camden Wilson, CJ Smuin, Ridge Nelson, Diego Vega, Riley Davis, Peyton Molinar, Liam Carlisle and Talon Shirley. The team is managed by Shane Henrie, Omar Molinar and Joe Vasquez.

The team will make their return to Price Friday afternoon VIA police escort at 4:00 PM. The escort will begin at Tony Basso GM and continue through Main Street, eventually ending at the baseball fields.
