Somebody needs to check their system clock or you are a psychic because you responded to a post seven minutes before it was made. Regardless, you are correct in your statements.

First, let me say I do not disagree with you about any of this. TCA is a highly talented team and has earned and deserves their trip to Murfreesboro. However, the point of your post seems to be that they could have fared better against some teams if a few things had gone their way instead of the opponents. That's pretty much stating the obvious. Apply that same logic to the two games in which TCA played Huntingdon (one regular season game and one tournament game) both of which TCA won by one run. In both of those games a few things (a very few) going Huntingdon's way could have changed the outcome and it might be Huntingdon rather than TCA that is considered (by many) to be the best A team in West Tennessee. Also, on the topic of playing a tough schedule, a highly rated AA Westview team left Huntingdon in a bad mood a few weeks ago. Well, I think you could have made your point without appealing to a mythological sky genie but that's a different topic.

The district tournament starts tomorrow in Huntingdon but the Fillies won't play until Monday. They finished the season undefeated in the district.

I think a strong case could be made for that choice but it is difficult, at least for me, to make any type of reasonable comparison between pitchers and position players. Huntingdon begins playing in the district tournament on Monday and watching their shortstop play is a chance to watch a young lady who truly plays the game because she loves it. As I said though, it is difficult for her to truly show her defensive talents with Brook Thomas on the mound.

Simple question: Who do you think is the best freshman in West Tennessee? My vote goes to Huntingdon Shortstop Winter Santiago. Her defensive skills are amazing for a Freshman and she would have more opportunity to show off her defense if the starting pitcher wasn't also an amazing player. Any other opinions?
