Scratch that score. Heard that at first. Now several people have said a twenty point Woodville win. Haven't heard an actual score though.

I agree with both of your statements. I haven't personally seen it, but I do trust the likes of TCU, 247sports, and ESPN. lol who all rate him a top 2014 prospect.

Woodville 86 Warren 40

Updates?

Wow. That sold me. Lol congrats! And good luck!

[quote name="Walk off" post="1364721" timestamp="1358531179"] eagleswoodville#1 you are obviously a Woodville Eagle apalogist. I tend to agree about letting sleeping dog lie, but your take boarders on outrageous. In the last match between Warren and Woodville, Woodville plunked at least 4 Warren batters with NO response from Warren, (verbal or othewise). The ONE Woodville batter that got hit, told the dugout his intentions before coming to bat. He leaned in on a strike to deliberately get hit, then charged the mound. The Woodville dugout, after being told his intentions, stormed the field. How, in anyones mind, this is called leadership, sportsmanship, or letting the assulted team advance is called "gracious" is beyond me.... I know several of the Woodville players, good kids and honestly ashamed of what happened. But, the actions they displayed that game speak volumes against your sugar coating a complete breakdown.      [/quote] When in this whole thread, or any other thread for that matter, have I EVER supported what happened in that game? Or tried to throw blame around? Never. In fact, I've stated several times how embarrassing it was. I know EXACTLY what happened that game. I was much more in tuned with it than you were, I promise. PM me and I can give you details on that. So before you come on here attacking me for "sugarcoating a complete breakdown", learn what my view really is and how I've actually approached the matter. I have NEVER defended Woodville for that. But to say that it was purely a one-sided deal, is completely wrong. Woodville was completely the one at fault here. I don't deny that. And you're mistaken. There were verbal altercations the entire game between both sides. I also know that for a fact. In the end it really doesn't matter what we think about the situation. It happened. Now it's over an means nothing on this upcoming season. Now I'd love to hear takes on this district. But I'm done talking about the incident on this thread.

Kountze 102 Kirbyville 48 Won't be even relatively close at Kountze. Just as no other team in this district will come within forty or fifty points of them at home.

Mid-nineties is pushing it. But I'd be willing to bet in 91-92 for both of them. I'm not complete sold on Twine. He hasn't impressed me in the six times I've seen him play at all. But I'm not naive. I've seen all the numbers, as has everyone else.

Well that's unfortunate! I'm sure the Pirate faithful down in Martinsville aren't complaining though lol

[quote name="Baller 93" post="1364238" timestamp="1358381674"] Did kountze press the entire game? [/quote] From what I hear, the press was only utilized in the first quarter and a half.

130 points is impressive against ANYBODY on ANY LEVEL lol

73-60, Woodville

[quote name="longball24" post="1363793" timestamp="1358294262"] gonna be fun this year. Will get to see a couple of pitchers throw in the low to mid 90s some nasty junk ballers and some unexpected up and comers. [/quote] Totally agree.

Wow I'm a little late lol that should be good for their program up there.

[quote name="Wheel House" post="1363714" timestamp="1358282033"] Woodville should have lost on game ending double play. Woodville did lose on a deadball strike 3. After that Woodville lost on the tie breaker of runners on third. AND Woodville lost the unfortunate incident they started. Woodville NEEDS a definate leader to motivate and keep the team in check...reference the unfortunate incident. Warren is essentially a team of leaders, each knows what to do and pulls the others up when needed. No, Warren does not have the one Stud player to carry the team...Don't need it, not when the entire team is above average in ability and knowledge of the game. Nine solid players, not one stud, a couple of good and the rest....        [/quote] You are quite obviously either a fan of Warren or have something against Woodville. So I'm going to leave it at this. After talking to coaches who were involved in the game, it was determined that the decision to advance was agreed upon between coaches. End of that. Warren COULD have won. But didn't. The error on the double play an dropped strike three gave Woodville the opportunity to tie the game in the bottom o the seventh. When the incident occurred, there were runners on first and second with two outs. The hit batter would've loaded the bases for the most dangerous hitter on either team. Unfortunately, a poor decision cost Woodville that opportunity. I have never defended Woodville when it comes to that. It was a poor choice. And for you to come on here claiming that ANYONE "won" as a result of that situation is completely uncalled for. And it's over now. Put it in the past. But as for the game, Woodville was in a position to win that game when it ended. Warren missed opportunities. A couple of them like you stated.

[quote name="Wheel House" post="1363665" timestamp="1358272132"] Hickman is good. A good player and a good kid.  But, like most at this level runs hot and cold. I understand you picking your home team 1st. Kinda like the fans who picked the Texans over the Patriots, the heart out weighs the mind. Woodville is 0-1 in head to head, and has never seen the Warren starting pitching, or the Warren varsity on the field or in the lineup at the same time. Woodville may have all thier pitchers back, Warren has the whole team back. Best of luck.                [/quote] Woodville and Warren tied in their one head-to-head. At the Woodville tournament. And Woodville was in a position to win it in the bottom of the seventh until the Woodville player made the decision he did, which eventually led to the ending of the game. Warren was aloud to advance due to a classy move by Woodville's AD and head baseball coach. I agree with the hot/cold analogy though. All teams do. Which is why I see Woodville and Warren splitting. Both winning at home. If Warren can develope a leader; an on the field general, like Hickman for Woodville or Twine for Hemphill, then they will be a complete team in my eyes. The talent is there. But they need to take that next step. As do the other top two teams in this district. The only real difference that I see is that Woodville and Hemphill have established leaders who lead by play. I could see Kolton Perfect out of Warren assuming that spot this year. But I'd have to see it first. I fully understand and respect your opinions though. Honestly.

I don't see Hickman getting MVP either. [/quote] Hickman got MVP in the tougher district they were in last year. Don't doubt him on that. The two injuries are improving greatly. One is 100% going to be back for the season and the other is about 85% right now.They suffered the same injury to different arms. I can respect the disagreements and all of the replies are valid. It should be an interesting run. Anything can happen with tho rivalry. And yes Woodville graduated five, that's true. But you also must consider that only two got any substantial playing time. They lost two starters. Both of which have been filled by good players. They return all but one on the infield, and two of three in the outfield(even though, IMO, the replacement is better than the one from last year). Their WHOLE pitching staff is back. Should be great. Anything can happen with these two teams. [/quote] Let's clarify... Hickman won what, "Defensive MVP?"  Because the MVP of the district was the kid from CH, and Twine was the Offensive MVP.  Twine will be the District MVP.... [/quote] Noooo let me clarify. CO-MVP. With Hunter Hayley from CH. It's really hard to get MVP when your team won't contend for the title. Which I don't see them doing at this point.

I've heard this floating around the rumor mill up in Nac for about a month now. Wondering if anyone could verify this for me?

Oh and best believe Hickman is right up there in velocity with Twine ;) I'm not gonna put any numbers out there, but just know that.

[quote name="longball24" post="1363577" timestamp="1358257192"] I think a lot of people are over looking Hemphill. They will contend for the district championship. They only lost 2 seniors from last years squad. Twine will probably share MVP with Hickman. Heard also Twine is sitting above 90 with his fastball. Everyone in this dist struggles with velocity. Pitching will win this district.  [/quote] I've heard that about Twine every year since he came on the spot. He's a great player, and you're right, he could possibly share the title. They'll contend. I have them beating Warren once because of Twine and Twine alone lol They will be good and this district will be very tough. Top two are set in people's minds as of now. Hemphill is iffy. If they can come in and have a good pre-district, then I can see them shoving there way into a three way race for the championship.
