LAS VEGAS ( FOX5 ) — The Summerlin South Little League team is celebrating its U.S. championship win with a parade through Downtown Summerlin.

A community celebration parade is expected to start at 6 p.m. along Park Centre Drive. Organizers say Nick Carter of the Backstreet Boys will be the parade’s emcee. Those who plan on attending are encouraged to arrive early.

Players from the U.S. Champion team stopped by FOX5 Tuesday to discuss their experience playing in the Little League Baseball World Series. Dustin Greusel said his whole school was watching the Summerlin South go deep into the tournament.

“Well, it’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity,” Greusel said. “Many kids don’t get to play in the Little League World Series, and I was fortunate enough to get that experience.”
