Compete against Memphis? Please explain.

Two great games between Arlington and Bartlett in this tournament. Bartlett won both, the first in the winners finals, 4 - 2, and the second for the championship, 1 - 0. I believe Bartlett will host Dyer County and Arlington will travel to Jackson Northside in the regional semi-finals.

Championship game Yucaipa - 10 Arlington - 0 Arlington had it's prom at the same time and had to play backups except for 2 junior starters. They brought up a freshman pitcher to start game. Saying that, Yucaipa is the real deal with 2 players projected to be first or second round selections.

Jonathan Van Eaton of Arlington has committed to the University of Memphis.

Bartlett is in district 14 and Germantown is in district 15. Another good opening day match-up is Arlington at Collierville.

What does Arlington look like?

Arlington is a new school with no senior class yet. The Arlington head coach decided to not play a 5A schedule this year to allow the team to work up to that level of experience and strength while building the program from scratch. The team is still trying to build but lacks numbers, sophomore class has only 15 players for example. The JV and freshmen teams are playing 5A schools this year. Arlington will play a true 5A varsity schedule next year. They have a very nice school and athletic facitilies and should be a very competitive team in the near future.
