FULL RECAP: Texas downs Florida 4-1 in 2024 Little League World Series
If Texas wins beats Nevada, it moves to the U.S. final Saturday — the opponent wont be determined until two elimination bracket games are played. Teams from the Mid-Atlantic (Pennsylvania), West (Hawai’i), Southeast (Florida), Metro (New York) regions have all suffered a loss, but can still make the final.
If Texas loses, it heads to the elimination bracket, but would still be just one win from the U.S. final.
- Boerne LL (Southwest) vs. Newton LL (Mid-Atlantic): 6 p.m. Thursday. Boerne won, 9-0.
- Boerne LL (Southwest) vs. Lake Mary LL (Southeast): 6 p.m. Monday. Boerne won, 4-1.

MEET THE PLAYERS: Texas roster in 2024 Little League World Series
The LLBWS has two brackets, one for the 10 United States regional champions, and one for the 10 International Regional champions.
Where is Boerne Little League?
Boerne is about 30 miles northwest of San Antonio and 90 miles southwest of Austin. It’s the seat of Kendall County and has a population of more than 20,000.
The Boerne Little League Majors All-Star Team won the Southwest Region on Aug. 6 by beating Louisiana, 6-3, on the strength of a grand slam, according to the Boerne Star.
Has Texas ever won the Little League World Series?
Texas has only made the finals of the LLWS once since 2001, with Lufkin LL finishing as the tournament runner-up in 2017. The last time Texas won the title was in 1966 with Westbury LL, a team based out of Houston. Last year, the Needville, Texas team lost in the U.S. finals.

FULL LLWS SCHEDULE: Bracket update for Boerne
Why is Texas playing Nevada?
Nevada, like Texas, is 2-0. The Northwest Region reps first beat the Metro Region (South Shore, New York Little League) on Thursday, 9-1. Henderson Little League then squeaked past Central East Maui Little League on Monday.
With the game tied 2-2 in the sixth inning, two walks and a hit batter loaded the bases for Nevada. Noah Letalu drew the third walk of the inning to bring in the game-winning run. Hawai’i had a baserunner in the sixth, but he was thrown out trying to advance on a drop-third strike, ending the game on a double play. Nevada right-hander Gunnar Gaudin pitched a complete game, allowing nine hits and striking out five.
He will not be able to pitch vs. Texas. Texas will be without its top pitcher vs. Nevada after Julian Hurst dominated Florida for a complete-game victory.
Paseo Verde Little League has allowed just three runs over its last five games, according to the Las Vegas Review-Journal.

EDITORIAL: Nevada can do better on occupational licensing
![EDITORIAL: Nevada can do better on occupational licensing EDITORIAL: Nevada can do better on occupational licensing](https://www.reviewjournal.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/19521872_web1_Legislature5.jpg)
A new study puts Nevada in the middle of the pack when it comes to the freedom to work. The state should do better.
Earlier this month, the Archbridge Institute released its 2024 state rankings on occupational licensing restrictions. The study looks at the extent to which each state erects hurdles that hinder entrepreneurs and drive up consumer costs.
The five states with the highest occupational licensing barriers, according to the analysis, are Texas, Arkansas, Tennessee, Oregon and Alabama. The five freest states are Kansas, Missouri, Wyoming, Indiana and New York. Nevada ranks as the 25th worst state for licensing.
This is an improvement over the most recent Institute for Justice survey, which tracks a similar metric. That 2022 report listed Nevada as imposing the second-highest occupational licensing restrictions in the nation. The differences can be attributed to methodology and the fact that the Archbridge Institute gave Nevada credit for implementing a limited reciprocity program that allows those licensed in other states to more easily transfer their accreditation to the Silver State.
Either way, Nevada must strive to improve.
Occupational licensing has exploded in recent decades to the detriment of the job market and consumers, with one in five jobs requiring some sort of government permission slip. While defenders of licensing argue it protects public safety, many such regulations amount to thinly veiled protectionism intended to shield existing practitioners from competition. Few people would quibble with licenses for medical doctors or airline pilots. But why should someone hoping to enter the field of interior design or landscaping be subjected to such capricious edicts?
Nevada is, in fact, one of three states that demand interior designers be licensed. The fact that the citizens of 47 other states manage to survive safely without such a requirement highlights the arbitrary nature of many occupational licensing schemes. “The public safety and health rationale for regulating many of those occupations ranges from dubious to ridiculous,” Maureen K. Ohlhausen, former acting FTC chairman, said in 2017. “Consumers can, and do, easily evaluate the quality of interior designers, make-up artists, hair-braiders and others.”
This issue crosses traditional red and blue state lines. Lawmakers of both major parties have an interest in making it as easy as possible for their citizens to earn an honest living in their chosen field.
Last year, Republican Gov. Joe Lombardo ordered the state’s occupational boards to recommend the elimination of licensing requirements in professions that aren’t regulated in a majority of states. He will make recommendations heading into the 2025 legislative session. The Democrats who control both houses of the Legislature should take his proposals seriously.

Nevada’s gaming regulatory agency wants new tribute to ex-governor as Sawyer building closes
![Nevada’s gaming regulatory agency wants new tribute to ex-governor as Sawyer building closes Nevada’s gaming regulatory agency wants new tribute to ex-governor as Sawyer building closes](https://www.reviewjournal.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/19521698_web1_sawyer-24-BT08.jpg)
The Nevada Gaming Commission will meet at 10 a.m., Thursday at Las Vegas City Hall as the Nevada Gaming Control Board slowly transitions from the Grant Sawyer State Office Building to its new home near Harry Reid International Airport.
Control Board Chairman Kirk Hendrick said at the end of August’s Control Board meeting that he hopes a fitting tribute to Sawyer can be made to remember his contribution to Nevada’s gaming regulatory system.
The state office building is closing this summer after years of complaints about the nearly three-decade-old building.
“This particular building was named after Gov. Grant Sawyer, who was actually a pioneer in modern gaming,” Hendrick said at the conclusion of the board’s Aug. 7 meeting. “He’s often referred to as the father of modern gaming and what he did 65 years ago in creating the Nevada Gaming Commission and the two-tiered system lives on today. I still believe it’s the best gaming system in the world and I would hope as we leave this building, that I would hope that the state would find another way to honor Grant Sawyer, former governor, and find another way to put his name on a building or something suitable.”
Hendrick noted that Sawyer has a Southern Nevada middle school named for him and another building in Northern Nevada bears his name.
Control Board offices already have moved to the new campus at The McCarran Center near Warm Springs Road and Amigo Street. The state complex includes 18 buildings, each named for a Nevada county and the state. The Control Board is based on two floors of the Washoe Building, 7 State of Nevada Way. But officials haven’t determined where Control Board and Gaming Commission meetings will be conducted.
“The board has had its own hearing room at least since the 1980s on Maryland Parkway,” Hendrick said. “This will be the first time the Gaming Control Board doesn’t have its own (hearing) room. We are looking forward to the new rooms that we will be sharing over on the new Southern Nevada campus and we will keep the public apprised of that.”
Kendrick said it’s possible regulatory meetings and workshops would be conducted at municipality council chambers or at Clark County until a meeting space is ready to permanently occupy.
