The Cowboys overcame a 6^th inning deficit against the power-hitting Keller Pinto team in the semi-finals and then held off the tough Grapevine Mustangs in the finals to secure its third consecutive tournament title of the summer. The story for the team’s tournament run was home runs with boys on base.  Five boys combined to hit 11 home runs, accounting for 24 of the team’s 58 runs in their five-game tournament sweep.
