17u: Grand Slams and Late-Inning Fireworks Power Perfect Saturday Sweep

The 17u squad put together an absolute masterclass at the diamond on Saturday, combining overwhelming offensive power with shutdown pitching to secure a perfect 2-0 series sweep over ONC Elite before Sunday's slate was washed out by rain. The opener was a complete 14-0 blowout, highlighted by a spectacular eight-run third inning where Noah Glennlaunched a majestic grand slam to right field.

With the game deadlocked 2-2 in the bottom of the sixth, Noah Stanley delivered the definitive blow of the weekend by blasting a towering three-run home run to right field. Aidan Cochran was lethal out of the bullpen to claim the win, striking out four over two scoreless, one-hit frames, while Jack Hatton anchored the lineup's depth with a multi-hit performance to lock down the flawless Saturday sweep.

15u: Flawless Saturday Doubleheader Completes Perfect Series Sweep

The 15u squad stayed absolutely lethal on the diamond, cruising through a Saturday twin bill to lock down a 2-0 series sweep over Ottawa's ONC Elite before Sunday's matchups were rained out. The opener saw the Mets secure a 9-4 victory, powered by a perfect 3-for-3 performance from Corby Quiambao, who set an aggressive tone with a first-inning triple and two singles. Nicholas Shimoda was masterful as the starter, throwing three hitless, scoreless frames before turning the ball over to Marcus Murdoch in relief, while Easton Robinson and Cam Micallef anchored the scoring by driving in two runs apiece. The momentum carried right into the second game as the Mets rolled to a commanding 10-4 win. The lineup struck early with an RBI single from Aryan Pandey in the first and a run-scoring double from Kristian Koidl in the second to build a quick advantage. Quiambao, Pandey, and Koidl each turned in multi-hit games, while Wyatt McCamus matched Koidl with two RBIs on the day. Cole Collura earned the victory on the mound with four solid frames, and James Hermogenes provided two scoreless innings of relief to lock down the undefeated weekend showcase.

The 14u Major squad put on an absolute clinic on Saturday at St. Andrew's College, outscoring their opponents 20-3 to secure a flawless 2-0 series sweep over the Ontario Royals before Sunday's action was washed out by rain. The opener was a masterclass in situational hitting and pitching excellence, resulting in an easy 8-1 victory. Zac Lowe was magnificent on the hill, silencing the Royals' bats by allowing just a single hit and zero runs over five dominant frames. The offense backed him early and often, led by multi-hit performances from Marek Henderson and Jack McKay, while Miller Wright, Henderson, and Alex Bianco each drove in two runs to blow the game open. The momentum carried directly into the nightcap, which ended in a commanding 12-2 routing. Tyler Chung was the undisputed star of the finale, putting together a perfect 4-for-4 day at the plate with a double, three singles, and two RBIs. The lineup completely broke the game open with a massive seven-run explosion in the second inning, highlighted by a bases-clearing three-run triple from Oliver Young. Owen Garcia cruised on the mound to claim the victory, scattering two hits over four sharp innings to cement an error-free, completely dominant Saturday showcase.

14u Minor: Thrilling Comebacks and Explosive Offense Secure Series Victory

The 14u Minor squad showed immense resilience and firepower over the weekend, securing a hard-fought 2-1 series victory against the Windsor Selects. The Mets kicked off the action on Saturday with a dominant 14-4 blowout, ignited by Josh Dawson, who went a perfect 3-for-3 with three RBIs and a solo home run to center field, while Chase Mageeearned the win with three hitless, scoreless relief innings and seven strikeouts. The afternoon nightcap turned into a high-scoring 14-9 setback; despite an early seven-run explosion in the first inning and multi-RBI games from Giancarlo Buompastore and Bryce Hayle, the Selects mounted a late surge to pull ahead. Sunday's rubber match featured absolute late-game magic as the Mets engineered a spectacular comeback after trailing by as many as seven runs to stun Windsor 10-9. Ethan Hoffman anchored the middle of the order by driving in three runs—including a clutch, game-tying double in a massive sixth-inning rally—while Noah Fernandez paced the 11-hit attack from the leadoff spot with a multi-hit game, allowing Bryce Hayle to claim the win on the mound and secure a sensational series triumph.

16u: Tight Battles and Walk-Off Heartbreak Result in Saturday Setback

The 16u squad fought through a pair of highly competitive, grueling battles on Saturday, ultimately ending up on the wrong side of an 0-2 series sweep against the Great Lake Canadians. The opener saw the Mets drop a 6-2 decision after falling behind early to a quick GLC surge. Ben Harnum provided excellent length out of the bullpen to settle the game, striking out three and allowing no walks over three and two-thirds solid relief frames, while Kole Dunnett and Nate Hilleach picked up an RBI to lead the offense. The afternoon nightcap featured absolute late-game theater, culminating in a heartbreaking 9-8 walk-off defeat. The Mets out-hit GLC 13 to eight behind multi-hit efforts from Dreydan Sunohara-Thompson, Rohan Persad, Quinlan Walsh, Teo Contardi, and Kole Dunnett—who launched a solo home run to left field in the fourth. Trailing late, Toronto mounted a thrilling seventh-inning rally highlighted by a solo blast from Beau Marshall and a clutch two-RBI single from Sunohara-Thompson to take an 8-6 lead. However, a brilliant five-inning, six-strikeout starting performance from Finnegan Ridsdale was left undecided as GLC manufactured three unearned runs in the final frame to steal the victory.

18u: Defensive Struggles and Power Deficit Result in Saturday Setback

The 18u squad found themselves overmatched on Saturday, dropping both ends of a doubleheader to the Great Lake Canadians to finish with an 0-2 weekend. The opener saw the Mets fall 11-6 after a dominant performance by the opposing starter, who racked up 15 strikeouts over five and two-thirds innings. Offensively, Michael Hancock led the way by going 3-for-4, while Rylan McCullough drove in two runs and multi-hit performances came from Yuya Nakamura and Jackson Doyle, though they couldn't keep pace with a seven-RBI explosion from the GLC lineup. The afternoon finale proved even tougher, resulting in a 15-5 defeat. Despite an early lead fueled by a solo home run from Jackson Doyle in the second inning, the Mets' pitching staff struggled to contain the GLC offense, which launched its own power display with a two-run home run and a triple. Doyle, Alex Kuypers, and Josh Machado each collected two hits, and both McCullough and Kuypers picked up an RBI, but a consistent offensive barrage from GLC prevented any hopes of a comeback.
