    Only eight Little League baseball teams in the state get to experience the excitement and mystique of being a stone's throw away from Williamsport. And this summer, Dillsburg had the privilege of being one of those teams.

   So as hard as a pair of mercy-rule losses at the state tournament were for Brian Bonin's 11-12 International All-Stars - who overcame the odds to win a District 14 banner before going unbeaten in the Section 7 Tournament -- the team knows there are plenty of achievements and memories to be thankful for.
