WhereChampionsAreMade Posted March 11, 2016 Report Share Posted March 11, 2016 Sevier County is still the team to beat until they're knocked off, even though their season ended earlier than we all expected last year. West returns a lot, but Will Heflin won't be on the mound for us anymore due to Tommy John surgery. We will miss him there, but it was best for him not to pitch this year because he has a bright future ahead of him at UT. I know our guys are hungry after letting Cherokee knock us out of the district tournament. Don't know what all the rest of the league has this year. I know Jefferson County and Seymour both have new coaches, but I don't know really anything else right now. How will the IMAC pan out this year?

theroyz71 Posted March 13, 2016 Report Share Posted March 13, 2016 The season starts tomorrow, if the games don't get rained out. Jefferson County opens at Sevier County. I'm anxious to see how the Patriots do this year. We lost a lot of offensive productivity off last year's team. We have some good players who will have to step up in order for the team to have success. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our offense will carry us however far we go. Weather permitting, West opens tomorrow at Cocke County and then hosts them on Tuesday. Go Trojans! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imacbball Posted March 14, 2016 Report Share Posted March 14, 2016 Excited that baseball season is finally here. Should be an interesting year in the IMAC. Could be the most wide open this conference has been in a while other than Sevier County which is obviously the favorite. From the sound of it, west has a loaded lineup. I seeMorristown east being poised for another run in this conference. Jefferson County has some arms returning but I wouldn't say they are loaded. They do have something they haven't had in a while, belief and excitement for the coach they are playing for. From what I have heard, the new coach at jchs has the kids believing in themselves and the kids truly love playing for him And are all in. Not sure if that will equate to wins for them this year though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They destroyed one of our best teams ever in the district title game. Jeff County's defense is good and our bats are good, so one will have to give when we play them. Sevier County should be the favorite, coming off 2 district titles. I see West and Jeff playing for second right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhereChampionsAreMade Posted March 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2016 West beats Cocke County 5-0 in a game shortened by the storm. Elijah Ferguson threw a no hitter for us, but our bats were dead. Saw that Jefferson County gave Sevier County a game and fell 11-10. No clear favorite in the IMAC right now.

theroyz71 Posted March 18, 2016 Report Share Posted March 18, 2016 Jeff County beat Pigeon Forge 8-5 tonight. They play Carter tomorrow night at Sevier County. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhereChampionsAreMade Posted March 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2016 West beat Fulton 14-0. We still haven't allowed a run against us this year. I know it's Fulton, and we still have room for improvement. But I've been impressed so far. Our freshman pitcher tonight had a shutout in his first start. Good start for him. Go Trojans!

theroyz71 Posted March 19, 2016 Report Share Posted March 19, 2016 Jeff County beat Carter 3-0 last night. They play Alcoa and White County today. Seiver County seems to be back on track after falling to Jeff County on Tuesday. Cocke County is Cocke County. Haven't heard much about Seymour, South Doyle, or Cherokee. East and West look good so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhereChampionsAreMade Posted March 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2016 West fell behind early to Grainger 10-2. We almost came back but fell 10-8, and we beat Daniel Boone 9-5. Still working some kinks out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
