Thoughts on Jeff County, Whitney Leon is their Sr Pitcher, she is decent but won't carry any team to the state, she was blessed last year with power hitters who aren't back this year. However the catcher, Dukes will be big for them. She is a power hitter and great behind the plate. Dukes is signed to MTSU
Blanco will do her normal greatness this year but Maryville lacks pitching. William Blount should be very strong, if they are going to make a run to the state it will be this year. They have 3 players signed already with Sr pitcher Tuck going to Div 1 Tn Tech. They have the talent but do they have the coaching? That remains to be seen. If I had the talent of Tuck, SS- Hannah Smith and Catcher Cameron Cambpell, I would ride them all to the state tournament, but if you let Tuck sit so you can pitch your younger players you won't make it out of that district.
Farragut will be strong again but lack of pitching and the loss of Stephanie Harris will hurt.
Good luck to all...
