QUOTE(GradfromtheNest @ Mar 24 2007 - 10:34 AM) 826421503[/snapback]All these people picking DB to win it all....Right now they're sitting at 1-1. Here's how the standings are in their pool so far:

 

POOL C

Walker Valley (AAA) 2-0

Gordon Lee, GA (A) 1-1

Dobyns Bennett (AAA) 2-0

Central (AAA) 1-2

Lookout Valley (A) 1-2

 

I'm afraid after Friday night DB is 1-1, not 2-0

QUOTE(ImaOWL @ Mar 25 2007 - 01:34 PM) 826422179[/snapback]Ooltewah beat Cleveland 8-3 in the semi's. DB then forfeited the championship game because they had no pitching. Ooltewah wins the Varsity Sports Ooltewah Invitational for the 2nd year straight. Wish we could of played DB though....

 

 

DB defeats Maryville 10-9

I wonder if pool play format creates too many games for a high school team in a short period of time to play? I hate watching a game between two good teams get spoiled because they don'tr have any pitching left or they need to save their pitching for district play the next day, then the tournament becomes survival of the fittest or biggest.

 

Congrats to the owls!

If you enter a tournament, your goal should be to win it. If you do not plan on playing in the championship game, then don't even enter. I'm glad a good team like DB came down, but they knew up front how many games they would have to play if they were to win it. Oh well, congrats Owls! It's always good to win your own tournament.

I agree fully, that was pretty weak on DB's part. Not to start anything, just a little disappointing. It would have been a good match up.

Playing back to back double-headers in the hot sun can take alot out of a player.From what I was told DB had run out of pitchers from playing conference games all week and than playing back to back games all weekend and just did not have anybody else to pitch in the championship game.Congrats.to the owls.

    • Jason Lambert should be the only choice for the Baseball coaching position. 
    • From the stats I found online it looks like Gabe Eddington- .484, 44 total hits, 43 runs scored and 42 stolen bases.Meanwhile, on the mound, the Austin Peay commit had a record of 8-2, while compiling 50 innings pitched with an ERA of 1.82. Carson Parrott - 7-0 overall as a starting pitcher with a 1.41 ERA, 95 strikeouts and a save in 53 and 1/3 innings pitched. Parrott hit .392 with 3 home runs, 21 RBIs with a .566 OBP and .716 SLG. Jaxon Walker - .454, 53 hits, 38 RBI’s, 9 HRs.   Not saying the other three aren’t deserving but Quillen had better BA than all three and was just as dominate pitching.  Like I said I don’t know how you leave off the 3a Baseball player of the year last year when he put up better numbers.  I know Greeneville’s Coach wasn’t happy about it saying “I don’t give a s*** what anybody else says. That kid is the best player in Tennessee, and everybody else on our team rises to his level“.  I’m sure winning another State Championship as a junior is more important to Carson than the individual award, it’s just a head scratcher to not be nominated
    • What coach in their right mind would want to come here and set theirself on fire to keep her warm.
