Second straight good finish for local travel team.

Though it was a long trip to Moultrie for the USSSA's "Angels for Autism Awareness" tournament made longer by a rain delay, Prospex 04 had a good day, finishing second.  It's the second straight tournament the team came home with championship rings.
