Hailing from the Washington Heights area of Chicago, the team made it all the way to the World Championship before ultimately falling to a team from South Korea. As the team rose to prominence, Evergreen Park, Illinois, Little League official Chris Janes began to investigate personal information pertaining to players of the Jackie Robinson West team, finding that multiple players on the team lived outside the team's designated boundary region. He later discovered that the team had used a falsified boundary map which covered a wider area than other teams in the region had agreed to. On February 11, 2015, based on Chris Janes' findings, the team's wins and U.S. titles were forfeited for its use of ineligible players. The U.S. title was retroactively awarded to Mountain Ridge Little League of Las Vegas. The Great Lakes title was also stripped from Jackie Robinson West, and given to the team they beat in the regional championship, New Albany, Indiana.Bowean Lolly Coach who challenged JRW boundaries: 'It's tough, but the kids will be OK' http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/breaking/chi-coach-who-challenged-jrw-boundaries-its-tough-but-the-kids-will-be-ok-20150211-story.html February 11, 2015 12 February 2016 Chicago Tribunehttps://www.espn.com/chicago/story/_/id/12308988/little-league-strips-chicago-team-us-championship-suspends-coach Little League strips U.S. title ESPN 2015-02-11 2015-02-11 Notable players Mo'ne Davis (Mid-Atlantic) – First girl to earn a win and throw a shutout in LLWS history; appeared on the cover of Sports Illustratedhttp://abc13.com/sports/mone-davis-makes-history-as-first-little-league-player-on-cover-of-sports-illustrated/272805/ Little League World Series star pitcher Mo'ne Davis makes cover of Sports Illustrated KTRK-TV Houston 2014-08-20 2014-08-23 Ed Howard (Great Lakes) – First-round pick in the 2020 MLB draft by the Chicago Cubs Coaches Pavel Chadim (Europe-Africa Region) - Manager of Czech Republic national baseball team at the 2023 World Baseball Classichttps://www.mlb.com/news/featured/history-of-baseball-in-czech-republic The history of baseball in the Czech Republic MLB July 7, 2024 Major League Baseball Scott Bandura (Mid-Atlantic) – Outfielder for the San Francisco Giants Robert Hassell III (Southeast) – Outfielder for the Washington Nationals National Hockey League Jayden Struble (New England) - Defenseman for the Montreal Canadiens of the NHL Notes References 30em Category:Little League World Series Little League World Series Little League World Series Little League World Series
