Sports Page 10 Thursday, June 23, 2011 The unnison Valley Gazette Gunnison All-stars take all Harris performs well at combine by DARRIN HILL The Gunnison Valley age 12 and under and age 10 and under all-star baseball teams participated in the annual Richfield Father's Day Tournament over the weekend competing against teams from throughout the states of Utah and Nevada. Eighty teams participated in the tournament consisting of players from 815 years old. The tournament began on Friday with each team playing two pool play games that would determine the seeding for Saturday's single elimination tournament in their respective age groups. The older Gunnison team met up with Wayne County and Millard on opening day. Using strong pitching and defense, they defeated Wayne County 6-1 and later, in a close battle with Millard, came out on top defeating the Eagles 5-3. After these two initial pool play games, Gunnison was seeded into the tournament and played Carbon in their first game on Saturday. The boys played well, and with good hitting and pitching, defeated Carbon 11-0. Next they faced Piute in the semi-finals and again, using the same formula, defeated Piute 6-0 which allowed them to advance to the championship game on Saturday night against Kanab. In what turned out to be a barn burner, Gunnison defeated a very strong Kanab team in two extra innings by a score of 5-4. Gunnison's 12 year old all-star team consists of Gage Mogle, Drew Hill, Carson Hansen, Cole Stewart, Kyle Petersen, Jaxon Christenson, Brayden Burrell, Parker Stewart, Cole Brailsford, Kolton Roberts, Kayson Barton and Parks Bartholomew. Their coaches are Alan King, Blair Anderson, and Johnny Anderson. Gunnison's younger allstar team began their tourna- ourtesy oto Gunnison 12 year old all-stars at the Richfield tournament. Gunnison Valley High School junior Braden Harris participated in the NUC Combine in Salt Lake City last week and came away with honors. Harris, at 6'3" and 205 lbs., took home the MVP title for all juniors as well as the MVP as the camp's top linebacker. Harris is also a great student athlete maintaining a 3.8 GPA. GVHS head football coach Yori Ludvigson said, "Braden started at outside linebacker and running back for Gunnison as a sophomore last year. He recorded 105 tackles in just ten games. Harris is being heavily recruited and should be a great Division 1 college player." Congratulations go out to Braden on this accomplishment!
