Coach Joel Jensen says he knew last year his 10 year old players made up a special team.

"Well, Bend South has won before, but Bend North, both ten and twelve year olds did this.  As far as Bend North, this is the first time we ever won state."

The Little League ten year old division stops at the state level, but the twelve year olds will travel to San Bernardino California on Thursday to compete in the Northwest Regionals.
