Congratulations to the CEC Cougars on winning the 2017 Midwest Homeschool World Series.  After going 0-2 in pool play including a tough 2 to 1 opening game loss to defending champion Summit Eastside Warriors, the CEC Cougars put it all together to win 3 straight games scoring a total of 21 runs while only allowing 3 total runs.  In the quarter final game they were able to hold off a tough Indy Kings team and take a 10 to 1 win.  The semi-final match-up placed them against the Kalamazoo Cougars and again the CEC boys were up to the task and only allowed 1 run, besting the Kalamazoo Cougars 9 to 1.  The championship game presented a well-known opponent in the Summit Eastside Warriors.  Both teams were able to manage 1 run early in the game before an extensive rain and lightning delay. The Cougars were able to scratch out one more run after the delay and used tough defense and great pitching to hold off the outstanding team from Detroit for a 2 to 1 win.    Congrats Cougars!
