The York Adams League in PA's Region Four has added a new team this year.  Dillsburg has joined the league, bringing the number of teams to seventeen.  Last year, Southwestern York captured the league crown and performed well at the regional tournament, winning two games.  They were eliminated by league rival New Oxford, which went on to finish second at the tournament, falling just one win short of a trip to the State Tournament.  This year's expanded league promises to be just as competitive.  You can find the full league schedule at the link below.

In 2011, the Wyoming Valley League was the strongest in the Region Five Postseason.  League members Plains and Back Mountain ran through the Regional Tournament at Bloomsburg, finishing as the top two teams.  Although Back Mountain knocked Plains off in the Winners' Bracket Final of the tournament, Plains was better on the final day, defeating Back Mountain twice for the regional title and the trip to the State Tournament.  This year's league season is scheduled to begin May 31st.  You can find the schedule at the link below.

Wyoming Valley League Schedule

District 11, which is located in Northeast Pennsylvania, begins play on June 2nd.  The league is comprised of nine Scranton area teams and the top six will make the playoffs.  Last year Green Ridge won the league title and finished with a 2-2 record at the regional tournament.  They'll likely be near the top of the league again this year, and Carbondale/Lakeland and Abington have also been strong in the past at the league and regional level.  A full league schedule and other important league informaton can be found at the link below.

The Philadelphia County League, which will have seven teams this year, will begin its season on May 29th.  Last year, the Olney Redbirds captured the league crown and made a good run at regionals.  This year, perennial league power Ivy Ridge hopes to return to past glory by winning the league title and the berth at the Region Three Tournament that goes with it.  Bustleton and the Del Val Senators should also be in contention at the top of the league.  Check out the full schedule and league's website below.

The Lehigh Valley League, an eleven team league that plays in Pennsylvania's Region Two, has released its 2012 schedule.  Last year's league title was won by Northern Valley, which along with Fullerton represented the league in the state regionals.  The league, which has existed since 1941, will only have one regional representative this year, so the run to the title should be especially fierce.  One major highlight of the season will be the league's second joint All Star Game with the Schuylkill-Berks League.  That game is scheduled for June 19th at the home the Reading Phillies and benefits the Lebanon VA Medical Center. The league season begins May 31st.
