The Warwick North all-stars are headed to the Little League World Series in Williamsport.  North beat Fairfield, CT 5 to 1 in the title game in Bristol, CT.  Fairfield needed to beat North twice in order to advance.  Colin Lemieux not only pitched a great game, he also hit a two run homer to help lift North to victory.  Warwick North earns its first ever trip to Williamsport.  Rhode Island sends a team to the World Series for a third straight year.
