by Josh Gordon
For a group of young baseball players from West Chester, Pennsylvania, a summer filled with practices, pressure-packed innings and championship baseball has led to the biggest stage in Little League.
West Chester’s East Side Little League officially punched its ticket to the 2026 Little League Baseball World Series with a 3-1 victory over Naamans Little League of Wilmington, Delaware, in the Mid-Atlantic Region championship on August 14 in Bristol, Connecticut. The win completed a perfect 3-0 run through the regional tournament and made East Side the Mid-Atlantic representative in Williamsport.
