History edit
Youse's Maryland Orioles were founded in 1952 by the Leone Family of Baltimore Maryland. Although the team has changed name and management on several occasions since then, it has been in continuous operation. The team currently competes in both the Cal Ripken Collegiate Baseball League and the All America Amateur Baseball Association ("AAABA").[1]
Named for Walter Youse, who served as head coach from 1957 to his death in 2005, the team is sometimes called the "Orioles Scouting Team.[1] The team has won the AAABA Championship 26 times.[1][2] The team joined the CRSCBL as a founding team in 2005 and has tied for the season championship of that league once, in 2007. In 2008 the Orioles won the 2008 regular season with a record of 34–7 and won the post-season tournament.[3] In 2008 the team also won its 26th AAABA title, and its sixth consecutive AAABA title.[2]
