13U Aces

In preparation for the upcoming 12U season, the Loudoun Aces traveled to Nike Park to take on the Great Falls Nationals in an exhibition game Wednesday night at 6PM. The Aces received solid pitching performances from 6 pitchers over 7 innings, leading the Aces to a 10-8 victory.

The Aces got run support up and down the lineup using a combination of small ball and long ball. The 10 run output which saw hard hit balls by Joe Alexander, Landon Hawes, Conner Weeks and Mason Ambuhl as well as aggressive baserunning and well placed bunts was capped by a massive home run by Ryan Hoehn in the 5th inning.

The Aces also saw the debut of Mike Alba in an Aces’ uniform. Mike joins the team after a successful run with the Riverdogs organization which included a 2010 ODBL Championship. A 7th grader at Farmwell Middle School, Mike has consistently led his team in various offensive categories. The lefty hitter stung a double down the right field line in his 3rd at bat as a member of the Aces and also pitched 2 quality innings showing off his various pitches. Mike is not only a fan of the NY Yankees, but of roller coasters, the ocean and anything baseball. Welcome Mike and the entire Alba family to the Aces!

Next up for the Aces will be their season and home opening double header on September 9th at 1 & 3:30PM as they take on the Chantilly Raiders on Founders Field at Good Times Park.
