Vincent Rush > 1975 Camden Mets. Record 17-1

Quite possibly the greatest little league team to ever play in Camden, Ohio. Managed by Bob Rush who never lost a league championship or tourey, the Mets success was primarily due to the best athlete ever to grow up in the area.

Darren O'Banion was the most feared pitcher and hitter to ever wear a baseball uniform in Camden. No one could hit a ball farther or make a kid wet himself before he stepped into the batters box.

This was best exemplified during a game against the Camden Indians. We we're up by 15 or 20 in the second inning, and the indians pitcher struck Darren out and was mobbed by his team mates, as if he had pitched a no-hitter.
