Hmm. We have made it to state three times in a row now and I still haven't seen her called for leaping and she's started since freshman year. Shouldn't they call that at the state tournament level? I'm not trying to be a prick. I'm honestly asking. During her down time she plays in the highest level leagues you could imagine and still has never been called. I can tell you the people she has talked to at colleges also have never said anything to her. Strange in my opinion that this is the first time I've seen it mentioned.

Yes LA lost. I think nerves happened all I can say. They sure didn't play like they are capable but it is their first time there ever. It is a big stage to play on. CAK is good. We are much better than we showed today you can't win a game usually with only 3 hits and defense was pretty much not there. It is what it is.

Let's go LA! I am proud of this team no matter what! This team has worked so hard and has done so well as a team. Go and play and have the time of your lives! Who would have thought at the beginning of the season that this young team would be taking the field at the 'Boro tomorrow. Proud of all and congrats to our coaches for a great season.

It was a good game as expected. LA just couldn't capitalize when it counted. We got on base either by hits, walks, or being hit by a pitch but couldn't get them across left several on base As did Dekalb. I don't say a whole lot negative but it is what it is until someone actually stands up and calls the illegal pitches, leaping, then Dekalb will continue on. I have to say shame on TSSAA for not calling it because it will not help her down the road when all Her mechanics will have to be re-learned because it will be called then. We see it all the time when watching televised games for college.

Would love to see LA v/s Dekalb in the Region finals. Yes Dekalb won last night but it was by no means an easy victory a 1 and 0 final in a very good game. It was defiantly not a good night at the plate for LA but the girls will be ready to fight again at the next meeting. Proud of how hard they have worked this season when many at the beginning said that they wouldn't even be in the running. I think the quote was no one even close?

LA is getting stronger every game! Won 4 games yesterday in the Upper Cumberland Tournament to get to the Championship Game. Played Jackson Co, Gordensville, Henry Clay out of KY, Pulaski County out of KY and Oakland in the Championship. Lost 3 to 2 in extra innings. Pennycuff pitched them all. Very Proud of this team!

DCTIGERFAN yes we do have some young ones. LA went to state starting 5 underclassman and only 12 total players. All of LA deserves credit, Pennycuff finished the season with 254 strikeouts on the season. That is quite impressive too, hopefully she will help take us back to the state next year as well! She and Cap have competed all year this year. I figure will we will see more of the same next year as well. As far as Bond intimidating umps, I don't know if that is the correct term but he definitely holds the influence. It has been that way since I have been watching them play for years. Not to mention, what are the odds you have the same 3 umpires for the district tourney finals and region tourney finals with the same ump behind the plate? Oh and both times we played Dekalb at Dekalb. Coincidence?
