A little bit of history

| | Comments (0)
We've talked a little bit about Nevada's pursuit of reaching the Little League World Series for the first time, but this game is significant because of who is not in it.

For the first time since 1988, no team from California will play in the Western Regional final. That's right -- 20 years. In 1988, Pearl City, Hawaii defeated East Boise, Idaho for a right to move on to Williamsport, PA.

According to Unpage.org, California teams have only missed the West Finals twice before this season. The other time was in 1986.
