Babe Ruth 14 all stars set To start state tournament play Saturday in Reno practice," Leniz noted. However, the team still has plenty of experience. Many members 'competed in two winter tournaments, with Leniz as their manager.

"We're pretty excited about it" he added. Leniz coached the Angels during the regular season. Playing for this year's all stars are Dallas Boyer, Tyler Dillon.

The finals are scheduled for next Thursday, starting with a second game to follow if needed. Nevada's state champion advances to regionals in Elk Grove, Calif, with their arrival set for Aug. 4.
