There was a pure joy, as Cannon King ran towards his teammates in Venice, standing outside the hideout after touching the home panel to complete the home running. A blocked chest was launched with Dylan Johnson, who went through dirt like a child playing in a sand box.
“This is a great feeling,” King said later. “We have worked hard for four years.”
Venice (27-2) perplexing a journey to Dodger Stadium to play in the open baseball championship in the city section. The Gondoliers Sylmar plays at 6 pm on Cal State Northridge in the semi -finals. Another match as part of Doubleheader has El Camino Real, which faces Birmingham at 3 pm
In many ways, these two matches impose more pressure on the players than to reach the tournament game, because each player who strongly wants to prepare him to achieve dreams of life.
“It is magical,” King said.
To see King’s smile and excitement last week after achieving a sixth tour of his 4-1 victory over Chatsworth, he made a hint of its value and importance to the escalating Gondoliers team. It is MVP Western League three times.
He is committed to Cal State San Marcos, he got all AA for a period of four years on his report card except for one B in the year of Chemistry Freshman and one B at AP Spanish. He is a born leader and “loves” his name Canon by his father, a high school teacher and former amateur rapper who was his best friend as the last name.
He said about the team’s success: “Energy is infectious.” “Everything gathered. Our team’s chemistry was high. Our practices were very fruitful.”
Canon King Venice achieved its sixth sixth last week against Chasworth.

Coach Kevin Brookway has 16 elderly people in the list. Gondoliers has not won the Upper Championship since 1972 and they are trying to follow the same possible path as last year’s champion, Bill, who has not been in the final since 1953.
The first ranked rifle was granted although El Camino Real and Birmingham came from the strongest West Valley League. But Gondoliers went 18-0 in the Western League and have the defensive ingenuity to do a good job, with a strong fisherman in Charlie Nisbet, which is short to be relied upon in Daniel Quirez and a king in the middle of the field.
Selmar, the Valley Championship, went to Dodger Stadium two years ago in the first division championship match. Alex Martinez is remembered from the third rule as a new student.
“He is crazy,” he said about the air. “Certainly overwhelming. It seems different, even when the ball is in the air. It mixes.”
Last week, he threw Selmar’s open victory over Cleveland. Coach Ray Rivera came to rely on him as an outgrowth and a battle.
Martinez said: “He trusts me with the ball and in special situations,” Martinez said.
He believes that Spartans will come to Tuesday game, they are satisfied with themselves.
“This team is special this year,” he said. “This team can overcome anyone if we play our game.”
Venice knows the next challenge, as it first has to cross Silmar, then one of the West Valley League laws, El Kamino Real or Birmingham.
Whatever happens, King is ready, although it is grateful because the games at 6 pm on Tuesday and 1 pm on Saturday. Gondoliers does not work well with morning games.
He said, “We are the first on Saturday morning,” he said.
It will make everyone go to bed early last night. None of them will sleep in any case think about the possibilities.
“Surreal”, how the king was put in place if they were crazy to make the dodging stadium on Saturday.
