The STLCC-Meramec Magic baseball team will take their talents to Farmington, Mo., for the 2011 Region XVI Tournament.
The Magic have compiled a 29-19 regular season record with a record of 12-6 when playing teams within their conference.
“We have been showing up every day,” head coach Tony Dattoli said. “We just need to execute. We just need to do the simple things in the game and stop being so cerebral.”
The double-elimination tournament will take place from May 11 to May 15. The Magic will finish the regular season at home on May 7, against conference rival Mineral Area College at noon.
“When we play aggressive at the plate and on the bases, I think that’s when we beat up on teams early,” right fielder Koby Chadick said. “If we do that we will be successful.”
