Before heading into Sunday's game, they were just three wins away from advancing to the Little League World Series in Williamsport.

Media Little League's 12-year-olds are also the newly minted Pennsylvania state champions.

A watch party was also held Sunday at the Media Theater on East State Street to cheer on the local team.

Their next game is Tuesday at 7 p.m., and if they make it through that round, the championship is on Friday.
