My boy, Caleb, is 10 and STILL under 70 pounds. Going into 4th grade.

Two times in this tournament the opposing first base player blocked the base (stood on it) while Caleb barreled down the line. Each time, Caleb took them out. One time he literaly ran up and over the kids body without ever losing speed. Good thin we are not in metal spikes. That would have been ugly. Oh, each time Caleb did that, the player was laid out flat. Both of them were well over 100 pounds.

Same in football. Caleb LOVES football. Corner back, quarter back. He loves to hit and he loves to run. Crazy funny to hear parents complain about my 70 pound boy hurting their 150 pound kids.
