Sports Photo Gallery: Hats Off to Evergreen Park All-Stars
The Evergreen Park Athletic Association Little League had a truly memorable 2011 season at all age levels. Here's a look at one playoff game.
The Evergreen Park Athletic Association had a remarkable 2011 season: Fourth place in state for the 11/12-year-old team; second place in Section 3 for the 13/14-year-old squad; a District 8 championship for both the 10/11-year-od team and the 7/8-year-old squad.
