Coach you did a fantastic job! Each year will continue to improve all the way around. Keep up the gret work on behalf of the kids. You cannot and will not please everyone.

Hopefully there will be more taken in to consideration than Haynie being drafted. If you look at all 3 of the stats in each players area of responsibility, any of the 3 could be considered a perfect choice. I would think that since it is called HS Player of the year, that where any of them fall in a draft or future draft shouldn't be a measurement. I am not saying that Haynie is not the best, but I do not believe where he is drafted should be a measurement of this award. It would almost be the same thing as penalizing Haynie for his team being eliminated the earliest in the playoffs of each of these nominees. If you look at the other 2 both had stellar averages and Hissong ended with a perfect 11-0 record includng a shutout in the state tourney. I am more familiar with Stone and Sheffield accomplishments and there could be a conversation about them, but all 3 of the DII look worthy of the award.

Any update on DII team?

Thanks for the help.

Does anyone know when they name the All State Baseball Players?

In DII I had the chance to see Matt Hissong from FRA pitch during the season and in the State Tournament. He finished 11-0 for the season with unapproved website showing a .65 ERA and 120k. He threw a complete game shutout in the State with 11k. He would certainly have to be a finalist. Penn Murfee at MBA had a great season as well both at the plate and in the field.

With the weather looking like it does for the weekend, how will TSSAA handle the rainout timing with DII State scheduled to start on Tuesday and the games possible not being able to be played until Monday? Thoughts?

Senior LHP Matt Hissong from FRA is 7-0 on the season. He has a .88 era with 82k in 55 innings. 1 no hitter against DCA and 4 complete game shutouts. 2 wins against Lipscomb this year also. Heading to South Carolina to play next year. Definitely one of the elite in mid tenn along with a great group of pitchers this year.

Franklin Road Academy has Matt Hissong University of South Carolina Aiken and Joe Mattson CBC Memphis
