West Brook, not Westbrook.

Drove me nuts when I went there...

aTmfan06 · February 22, 2009

No Buna in top ten??

ftballcrazy · February 22, 2009

Me thinks he does not like Buna. Anybody can put up a top 10 poll it is their thoughts. We will know if he was right at the end of the Season. If Buna keeps their head straight they should go back to State this year. We will see how dedicated they are to doing that.

Teams I've seen in scrimmages:

PNG.....loaded, lots of pitching, spikes looked the best i've seen him throw in awhile..jalai only soph can swing it, reyenga to me is the toughest out in that lineup

LCM...pitching was suspect going in, no problem at this point, plenty and good...lineup of hitters deep, barry to me toughest out...will be toughest on the road in bigger ballparks to utilize the gappers hit

Nederland....young team this year, could start 3 sophmores....camp fun, 2 a days and maybe austin in bb could slow some non-district wins....tyler smith (soph) looks good on mound...vidrine D1

West Brook...slow out of the box for 5A....defense could be better.....muelner one of the sweetest swings

Barbers Hill....haven't seen them....on paper haven't dropped off much from last year

Bridge City....lot of power from a 3A...rhodes, hubbard and mulholan can go deep....defense needs to tighten....wallace could surprise

Vidor.....haven't seen....hester can beat anyone....bruce can play

Huffman....seen last year against LCM...solid squad, lot of returnees

Kelly...prewitt was impressive. always like o'connell

Jasper....haven't seen.....but it's jasper and their coach

Orangefield....i like this team, motivated....pitching depth isn't bad, plenty.....statum tough out

Hamshire-Fannett...haven't seen, probably most experience coming back.....eaves can smash....healthy koenig, playoff bound

Buna...haven't seen this year....lot coming back from state finals......i like clark

Above is our pre-season Top 10. After a weeks play, how did it stack up?

I know Crosby and Dayton made real good showings at the Vidor and LCM tournaments and their missing. PNG drops games to LA teams Kaplan and Sulphur. LCM drops 3 in their tournament. Nederland beats BC and 2 solid teams in Houston, then run ruled twice. West Brook wins a couple, the loses a couple in same tournament with Nederland. Barbers Hill goes west, mops up early in lower classification, then lays an egg. BC comes back from Nederland loss, sweeps 4 and plays another that both teams throw 7 innings of shut out ball. Vidor sweeps 3, 3A's with Hester in one of them, loses to 4A Dayton. Huffman goes 2-3, wins over Willis and Northern Christian. Jasper has impressive lost, if a lost can be impressive to Vidor with Hester and a 7-6 defeat from Dayton. Orangefield is un-defeated, Hamshire-Fannet takes down LCM and Buna takes a few lumps playing up a class.

Let's see your Top 10 or comments.

March 1, 2009

Hard to say for us (Huffman) bc they were in the Spring tourn. but they are very young. At this point I would say long season if not for they fact they have Coach Deberry. Thought they would be much better at this point but have to wait and see.

St@t3b0unD09 · March 1, 2009

Dayton did extemely well in the Vidor tournament going 4-0, by beating silsbee 1st game 5-3 vidor the 2nd 8-3 ozen the 3rd 21-2 and jasper for the last one and dayton won 7-6 i think they might really far this year. they have 3 good pitchers Walter,Smesny and the lefty Dillian K

Bobcatfan4life · March 1, 2009
