Nederland should have enough pitchers on there team to have a pitching staff from what I am hearing

Sr- Kody Kolb, Eric Bankston, Jacob Jones, Austin Krautz, Zach Friesz, Brock Fenn

JR- Chase Kemp, Caine Williams, Austin Junot, Brendon Dunkelberger, Connor McGrath, Burke Badon

Sph- Brayden Creduer

And that does not include any of the New kids that may make the teams.

Barbers Hill has  SR Lefty Brian Taylor (Nicholls State) that is still in Basketball, JR  Bryce Bonin hitting 90-92 MPH just not a lot of experience on the mound normally a position player SS,  They have a hand full of underclassman that will buy innings and hopefully find a couple of potential starters.   If they can find 3 more arms to get innings, (which they have) they will be fine in pitching.  They will have a crafty lefty, and a  90 plus throwing RHP, with some decent arms behind them, they will be fine,

BH11, How hard does the Taylor boy throw? He must have a good arm since he has already signed. Does he hit well or will he be DH for in college?

Not 100% sure, would say sits on 85, tops around 87 is a lefty,   He hits OK for high school, but doubt he will in college, he plays outfield when not pitching

Anyone know how Austin UpShaw for Laporte has been doing. I think he is Verbally committed to play at Nebraska. Plan on making it over there to watch a game or two of his.

Committed to Nebraska for baseball, but first love is football,  I heard he would give up Nebraska for football somewhere , plays QB for LP, 3 yr starter.  Great athlete, plays 2nd, but would be so much better in outfield.  Nephew of Gene Upshaw, old Oakland Raider Hall of Famer

Zach Bronkhorst, JR. - Power pitcher with 4 pitches. Throws 89-93mph. High avg hitter with outstanding speed. Excellent SS. 3 sport athlete - being recruited in both football and baseball.

When I saw him he was low 80s....he is a crafty lefty which is what got him signed.

Like I said was not 100%, but you are correct, low 80s majority of the time, but heard he topped 85 this summer,  was told that yesterday afternoon.   Bonnin is living at 88-90 , topped 92 last week, hit it  3 times, problem is he has never really pitched, always played the field and nobody knew he could throw that hard until recently.   Once he learns how to pitch, and only being a JR, could be very effective in the future for BH.  So you will see 2 totally ends of the spectrum when playing BH with Bonnin and Taylor.  Was impressed by some of the arms in the scrimmage as well, so think BH will be fine.  Just need to get Taylor out of Basketball and back on the mound.

Dang, 89-93, he is probably getting several good looks with that velo.  Know a couple of kids in that grade throwing that hard that have already committed to major D-1s.  Best of luck this season, and look forward to catching a few games of yalls this season.

That district has probably never seen that kind of velo.

Yep that will make a good combination if bonin can throw strikes. I would make him my closer, just have him have to get 3-6 outs at the end of game by throwing gas.

    • The locals have almost finished firing the first ever Speaker of the House from Southeast Texas upon direct order of Trump and his minions.   It's a sad day... Locals have decided that being represented by the most powerful man in the House didn't mean anything.... they'd rather a political novice to represent this part of SETX.  And why is that?  He wasn't MAGA enough for them.  Who cares that it will hurt locally... What Trump says, goes.     Just yesterday I saw Trump on television demanding that we fire Phelan... How he's a RINO, weak on the border, etc... why?  Because he wouldn't overlook the criminal actions done by Ken Paxton, one of Trump's key supporters in the effort to overturn the 2020 Election and allow Trump to remain in office despite the will of the voters.   Trump never even mentioned Covey's name, and I doubt he would recognize Covey if Covey walked up with a cup of coffee.  Who cares that it's bad for SETX?  Not the R voters from SETX!   Then I saw Covey's preacher on a different ad tell a bald face lie.  Why should Phelan be fired?  "He put Democrats in positions of power in the House."  Really?  That's been the position of BOTH parties for as long as anybody can remember.  They ALWAYS give the minority party committee chairmanships.  But in 2022 the Rs decided that the practice should stop.  Democrat voters should not be allowed a voice in the crafting of legislation if there is a single majority Republican seat in the House, according to the Rs.  Representative Government?  Never heard of it, huh? Never did I believe that we'd have an abortion ban, constitutional carry, huge cuts for school property taxes, and Texas law enforcement being greenlit to enforce immigration law.  But it all happened while Phelan was speaker.  Without a doubt, the most conservative Speaker, ever.  But still a dirty RINO for not being MAGA enough.  It would be funny if it weren't true.   I've been following politics long enough to remember when Rs couldn't get elected in Texas... I'm confident that we're headed back that direction.  I mean, it's obvious that with population shifts we'll be turning blue eventually.  I think that the behavior of the leadership of the Republican Party is going to cause that shift sooner than expected.  I won't be surprised to see Democrat Senators and possibly even a governor elected within 12 years.  Maybe less.  The Rs will be a party apparatus without a voting base behind them.
