The Langhorne 12-year-old tournament baseball team captured the Quakertown Invitation Tournament championship with five straight wins tallied over the July 4th weekend. The 12-year-olds capped the holiday weekend off by defeating Upper Merion in the championship game, 7-1.

For the tournament, Langhorne displayed outstanding defense, giving up only four runs over the five-game stretch, with strong pitching coming from Michael Ratner and Corey LaQuay, with Connor Lafferty and Kyle Skeels also getting wins.

Defensively, the tournament series included strong outfield performances by Ian Davis, Colin Cook and Kenny Lehman, with two perfect relay plays to catcher Mark Farley in the championship game to cut down attempts by Upper Merion to score.

The offense was led by the bats of Lafferty, Skeels and Nolan Jones while Matt Hessenthaler, Skeels, Lafferty, and Ratner led Langhorne in runs scored for the tournament. Farley homered twice, while Skeels, Lafferty and Jones also hit home runs. Cook and Brennan Carr also batted over .500 for the tournament.

A week prior to that in the Sacred Heart Invitational Tournament, Langhorne recorded a second place finish, dropping a hard-fought 3-2 decision to Montgomery in the championship.

From there, Langhorne headed to the Pennsylvania State Cal Ripkin tournament that began July 18.
