Fifty-one players participated in Saturday’s second annual all-star game. Only Cody and the Casper Drillers were not represented because those two teams are playing at the Northwest Class ‘A’ Regional Tournament (NWCART) in Vernal, UT.

Some of the all-stars participated in the home run derby on Friday night. Jacob Russell from Douglas was the winner. The West beat the East in the team portion of the home run derby in a swing-off.
