Regional 12u baseball teams made their way to Ville Platte over the weekend.

The Franklin Fire Department and St. Mary Parish Police escorted the Franklin Boys 12u All-Star Baseball Team Saturday afternoon, they say.

The team competed in the regional tournament in Ville Platte today.

A district director said, "It's very important to get the parents and to get the kids back, it is basically like a reunion, and very good for us."

The Franklin Boy's 12U All-Star Baseball Team celebrated a 20-10 win in Saturday's game, but lost to Girard in the loser’s bracket with 12-2 on Sunday.
