As soon as he doesnt win state he will be persecuted. [/quote] I wouldn't say that. Stalbaum made it 23 years and left on his own terms without winning state and he wasn't persecuted. [/quote] Kinda shoots holes in that statement doesn't it. How do so many "outsiders" know so much more about BH athletics, baseball in particular, than the folks associated with BH  ??? [/quote] So true, thanks for the post!

Where will the games be played?

[quote name="SETXSPORTSJUNKIE" post="802330" timestamp="1274029514"] Am I correct that it takes only 1 vote to be named honorable mention?  He (the prom kid's replacement) at least had the vote of one coach, probably his own, but still, he probably felt the kid was worthy!  [/quote] I see 2 kids from BH that made honorable mention, Santana & Thompson. Thompson was the starting catcher and Santana started everytime Leggett pitched. When a kid was lost due to issues at the prom Santana started every game. The prom replacement Matt King was pulled up from JV and did a great job. Know the facts before you make comments.

[quote name="RUKIDDINGME" post="802298" timestamp="1274023226"] The post was not to question the kids work ethic only to state the obvious. No coach in his right mind can justify a Defensive MVP first baseman out of the the 150 plus participants in 19-4a. How the heck does anybody think the ball arrived in his mitt? Call it what it is all these awards are soley based on offensive production as one coach explained to me and offensive only. Defense has no place in the minds of our coaches and fans. As speckledtackle indicated the honorable mentioned candidate owes the prom kid a special thanks for being able to garner enough PT to recive his trophy. [/quote] It's a shame when awards are posted after every season, someone has to always act like an a@#hole. You quote Coach Byrd's "Wow" saying like you know him well. Coach Byrd has helped coach (as you call) the Defensive MVP first baseman for 4 years. I do know Coach Byrd and I believe his comment would be WOW its about time this kid gets recognized. I guest all the scoops, diving catches and throw outs he had this year had nothing to do with him receiving the award. If the award was given out based off offensive production as you state, do your homework he has the stats to back it up. Congrats to all the players.

Congrats to the Eagles for a quality showing in the tournament. They won 7-2 against needville last night. Pitching look great with Long going for 5 innings giving up 3 hits and had 5 K's. Asbury started the 6th and finished the game giving up no hits and had 2 K's. Congrats to following: Daniel Mitchell, Kody Thompson, Blake Bonnin - All Tournament Tyler Newcomb - MVP

BH won the 2nd game 12-2 against Wimberly. Leggett went 5 innings and Thompson pitched the 6th. Pitching and hitting were good all day to go along with a much improved solid defensive showing. It was nice getting Mitchell and Asbury from basketball. Mitchell was lead off yesterday and had a great day at the plate. Lyday had another solid performance at the plate to go along with McDonald, Newcomb (HR) and Thompson (HR). Todays game is at 6:00 against Needville.

Congrats from BH, Angelina is getting a fine pitcher and great kid. I know his parents are very proud.

A few Kids to be considered: P - Smesny (Dayton), Burditt (BH) LF - Henscey (BH) CF - Padgett (BH), Crapo (Dayton) 1st - Lyday (BH) SS - Carmono (BH), Crosby SS Comment about best 1st baseball - Kid from BH Tyler Lyday (Junior) - From what I have seen this kid has hit the ball all year and has been a wall on defense. I don't know all the stats, but I heard he's batting around .375 with an OBP over .500, not bad considering this is the best competition I've seen in our District.
