Newton SE Heads to the Championship

The Newton SouthEast Little League team will take its winning ways to the state championship Monday evening after a win Sunday over Peabody West.

On Sunday, NSELL topped Peabody West 5-3 for a chance to play Hanover in Monday's state championship. A win Monday night would keep NSELL in the running for a trip to Williamsport, Penn., and a chance at the National World Series championship.

According to Peabody Patch, Newton SouthEast took an early lead in Sunday's game against Peabody and never looked back. The game ended on a strikeout for Peabody.

Weather permitting, Newton SouthEast will take on Hanover at 7 p.m. Monday at Parkway in West Roxbury (315 Baker St). 

On the way to the state championship, NSELL has already beaten Hanover in tournament play, securing a 3-2 win on Saturday. Newton SouthEast also beat Holden 11-8 on Friday..
