Thoughts about PNG's Schedule

[jdawg03]

Its interesting to me that PNG has non district games scheduled during district....with 20-4a being such a tough basball district, it seems like this would hurt more than it helps..thoughts?

yea that is kind of odd. Ill see if I can get some info on that.

PN-G always plays a tough schedule, but this is one of the toughest in a long time. All 5a tournaments and most non district games are 4a playoff teams from a year ago. Should be a good year for the Indians.

Thanks for the post pngbbfan. Feel free to post anytime. I dont know I just kinda find it weird them scheduling some of those games during district.

sounds like a deathwish to me....PNG must have a DEEP pitching staff

I heard they have a lot of returners from last years playoff squad.

My senior year at PN-G we played in the Woodlands and Deer Park Tournaments. It was tough, but helped us when district came around. Considering it's a seven team district I can understand playing games instead of taking days off. It makes for good practice, and allows you to try things you wouldn't in league play.

Good point. Who better to answer that than a fellow PNG Alum.

This isn't Coach Stone's first rodeo. He has done this before. He uses these games to keep his hitters sharp and allows younger pitchers to get in some varsity innings without risking his normal starters. With the depth of his program, it is a good call for Indian baseball.

Your right Coach Stone has been around the block once or twice. He knows what kind of talent as well there is in the state tournement so I guess that helps them get prepared for the playoffs too.
