Fuel Jack Hernandez's Path to Team USA

Hello. My name is Jack Hernandez. I am going into the 7th grade at BFA Middle School. I have been playing baseball since I was 3 years old. It is my favorite thing to do.

After several rounds of tryouts with the USA Baseball National Team Identification Series, I have been selected as part of the 13U (13 years and under) team that will represent the Northeast Region (Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, West Virginia & Virginia) at the Champions Cup tournament. The tournament will take place at the USA Baseball National Training Complex in Cary, NC. My Northeast team will compete against teams from the other 5 regions in the US from Aug 21-25. The best players from that tournament will be selected to represent the United States in the 13U National Baseball Team that will train and compete against teams from around the world next summer.
