Willis and the big right hander gives Gibbs 2 starters as good as anyone. They will be tough for anyone to handle for any classification.

The right hander you are talking about is Brenton Bates. I agree with you Rico, and when you add in Jacob Turner this year they are really going to be tough to handle. The deal with Gibbs will be whether or not they can score some runs.

I agree that the deal with Gibbs will be if they can score some runs. Pitching will definately be their depth with Willis as the "ace", Bates, Turner, Lucas Shropshire (another quality lefty whom beat Cleveland last year with a one hitter), plus they have one more pitcher that is converting to sub for this season.

Gallihugh-Pigeon Forge

Carter-Pigeon Forge

Turner-Gibbs

Willis-Gibbs

Bates-Gibbs

Whitson-Unicoi

 

In no specific order, these are the top 6 in AA in Knoxville and East Tennessee

 

As to Gibbs scoring runs, don't kid yourself, they were 1 inning away from the State tourney last year :flower: with all Sophs. and Juniors, and without Jacob Turner who has returned this year after a year off, and is probably one of the top 5 Right handers in the whole state. They will score runs and score plenty, and I would like to know who you all think can score runs against Willis, Turner, and Bates. Gibbs won't have to score many, but they now go 9 or 10 deep in the hitting line up, so it shouldn't be a problem.

 

I'm sure middle and West TN has several good pitchers as well. Good luck to all. :wacko:

    • Defending 2A state Champs Westview Lady Chargers are pretty tough. They lost a bunch of production off last year's squad but returned some talent as well. They still McCall Simms, a Tennesseee Lady Vol softball commit as well as solid talent around the diamond. I dont think they are as good as last season but they will definitely be a tough out. Huntingdon Lady Mustangs seem to be pretty stout as well. Don't know much about Riverside other than Westview defeated them earlier in regions. West Tennessee softball is pretty solid all around id say.
    • Eagleville couldn’t catch up to Jones, he did have his location issues but in that game Eagleville popped up everything and the one hit they did have could have been ruled an error. Jeffcoat was a lot sharper in the beginning of the season last year than the end. ER ran out of pitching and still was in striking distance but none the less the better team one. Last seasons tournament was A LOT more balanced and talented. South Pitts starter is a Lefty who was low 80’s but couldn’t maintain his velo throughout the  outing, their #2 was more impressive last year, we knocked him around this year and his mph was down some. Their #3 isn’t bad neither, throws a lot of strikes and sits high 70’s.
    • He actually had a really solid spring.  I could see him getting some backup snaps on offense and be a regular on special teams.  Really athletic kid who can run. 
    • Heard Seq has gotten a lot stronger this off season. Can’t wait to see how the boys do this year
