Who are you sports freak? I played with Mike Nipper at Central in 80-81. He was one heck of a ball player. Dont know of anyone else who came through Central that could hit it like him with the exception of Todd Helton.

 

Bubba Trammell could swing the bat a little bit, too.

 

That team with Helton, Trammell, Chris Freeman, and Pug Wood was one heck of a baseball team.

If you were around back then, a guy by the name of Stan Cook came along after that. To me he is the second best hitter to ever wear the Red and Black.

I grew up with Stan. We played Little League together at Ft. City. He was a Soph when I was a senior. And you are correct, he could flat out hit it--but I think Nipper was just as good and in HS had more power. Stan is now a Federal Flight marshal. I saw him a year or two ago and he is HUGE. Not fat, about 6'-4" and around 230 or so. I only remember him mainly as a kid in high school whre he was very aaverage sized.

Talk to him and Scott on a regular basis, they are great people. Wish Central baseball would get back to the way it used to be!
