Ravenwood beat Mt Juliet which is not near as good as Brentwood or Centennial so that doesn't mean anything because you never know who is pitching the out of districts games.
IMO, I would add Brentwood and Centennial to that list, 11AAA is one the toughest districts in the state from top to bottom, period. It should be a fun finish this year.
I totally agree with you, kid's develop at different times of their career. As far as the Burdick kid, I like his bat but his defense is no better than a lot of other players in the area, will probably be a second baseman at the next level.
