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

High Island has 2 very good pitchers:

Ethan McAlpin, SR. - Solid control, throws low to mid 80's. Above avg middle INF. Power hitter. 3 sport athlete

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.

    • No doubt. It's definitely intriguing enough to watch how this all plays out...
    • We all know that each state has its own laws which can be very different, especially in endeavors like annexation or incorporation, so there is no telling what Louisiana law says. I don’t know but I doubt that there is a point of appeal for Baton Rouge to force St. George to be absorbed back into Baton Rouge by now giving them what they asked for years ago. “Oh, we lost? Well let’s just undo incorporation, ruled as legal by the Supreme Court (of LA)  by going back and giving them what they asked for”. There has to be a law allowing such an appeal. I think what I read about the lower court decisions which actually backed up Baton Rouge, they did not all rule that incorporation was illegal but that they did not think the city could have services up and running soon enough. So you have a court saying that sure you can split but only if we agree that you can provide services get enough. In Louisiana, who knows? I doubt that Texas has such a mechanism to allow a city to split, for example, could the west end of Beaumont say that they wish to make their own city against Beaumont’s objection? I doubt it. Certainly Beaumont could allow a city to be created as Port Arthur did with Bridge City and Taylor’s Landing. There is a huge difference in allowing and forcing which is what happened in Baton Rouge. Similar to the sometime discussed topic of Texas splitting off from the United States because they don’t like the way things are going, think if citizens in any city in the United States were allowed to create their own city, which could not be stopped by the parent city.  That could get interesting!! Don't like what is happening in the south side of Chicago? Just de-annex and create your own city!! Anyway, I thought that it is an interesting story when the capital city splits in half.   
    • Wasn't that 1st round loss last year? Also, during those previous 10 years I am pretty sure Jasper didn't go 2-58 in district play in the other 5 sports.
    • Ma'am, I don't think he said all Muslims were like that. If I'm reading this right, he's referencing the terrorist Muslims. You know, the ones who commit murder & have no regard for anyone who doesn't follow their jihadist beliefs...
    • Great playoff run, no doubt.  They did make the 3rd round(1 less) 4 of the previous 10 years, only one first round loss. 6 district championships and 4 second place.  The only 4 years Carthage was in the same district. So no, I'm not sure it does make sense.
