It's about that time again 12AA. Can't wait to see how it turns out this year. Giles Co. has to replace 5 starters from last year but they will return the top portion of their pitching staff. Spring Hill returns a lot and looks to be reloaded again. Marshall Co. returns one of the toughest pitchers in the district with Vernon. Lewis Co. and Hickman Co. took steps in the right direction last year and are expected to continue to do so this year. Will Page be back toward the top? We have added Summit and they will be young but talented. In an always competitive and intense district who comes out on top this year?

It's great to see this thread up and running, as it means baseball season is just around the corner! 12AA should be tough once again for whoever emerges as the champ. Spring Hill has turned into a power in AA baseball as Coach Lamm always reloads and has the Raiders ready. This year will be no different. Marshall has tradition on their side as well as great starting pitching, which definitely wins a lot of games early in the year. Pitching will be even more important now with the BBCOR bats and a less-offensive game. Giles always plays with a lot of energy and a lot of speed. They make things happen on the bases and score a lot of runs. Page was down last year, but Coach Brown runs a great program and no doubt will bounce back as his team gains experience. Lewis lost several seniors and the MVP in Ammons, but they seemed to have some good middle school kids coming up the last couple of years and a good freshman group last year, so Tiller will probably play some young talented kids and I look for them to be tough, especially in the second half of the season. I think your description of Summitt is very accurate, young but talented, and will be well-coached with Coach Kirby having much success at his previous job. They are definitely an up and coming program to watch. Hickman is an interesting team to watch and could be the x-factor in a lot of the final standings. When the lefty Hays is pitching well, they can shut anyone's offense down. Control can be a problem at times. The core of the team has been playing together for 3 or 4 years now and it is Coach Chessor's 4th year at HCHS. They have improved much during that time, and the question is are the Dawgs ready to take the next step? Time will tell. East Hickman and Fairview don't look to have a lot of returning pitching, which could present some matchup problems for the Jackets and Eagles. I don't know much about upcoming players, but they may struggle based on what they have coming back from last year's teams. But as we always see in 12AA, anything can happen on any night. Should be another exciting season!

I know Spring Hill only lost 4 Seniors, and only 2 were everyday guys. Who will take Schubert's spot at 3rd and Scarritt's in LF?

 

Who will replace Schubert on the mound?

Giles has a really good group of seniors, with Springer and Mclemore both hitting and pitching, Brooks with speed and good defense, and Hamby as the relief guy on the mound plus word is he is catching now too.

Not sure how much Schubert did on the mound for the district games but definatly a force a 3b. Teal and that slider will be the biggest loss on the mound and Scarritt's bat at the plate. I think the real question for Spring Hill is how good will Petty, Usher and Barksdale be on the mound. It will definatly be another exciting year. I look forward to the giles spring hill game. That has turned into a great series and with giles having all that speed in the outfield combined with the new bats it should be even better. Good luck to everyone this year.

    • It was not ACHS at all, they have zero reason to worry about Clinton.  It had to do with a kid (non football player)  that had a charge and appeared in front of the juvenile judge.  The judge saw that the kid was way behind credit wise for his grade and told him to reappear in a month with a plan to graduate.  When the kid reappeared he had more that twice the credits than one month before.  The judge called BS and contacted the school.  That is what started the investigation.  This involves multiple students, but to this point no athletes are involved.  
    • I believe the Covington Chargers travel to Trenton Peabody for a scrimmage today? Anyone going to this? Curious how the Chargers will do.
    • Good ole Bradley Zulliger. He was a really good QB @ OR. Fun to watch.  Wore #15 and was like a mini Tebow, with the exception of being right handed. He could take a pounding and keep on ticking. Played with a collapsed lung against Powell that year. Tough as nails.
    • They should be pretty good in year two for Rang.  Replacing most of the offensive production losing Dozier, Hayward and Rembert , but they're are skill kids in place ready for their shot.  I know I say this every year, but the o line should show improvement after two years in Rang and Kevin Day's weight program.  I still would favor West over Plow and OR come November.  The Rebs will have to grow up a bunch between now and then, and will probably take some lumps along the way with that schedule.  But I predict come playoff time they will be ready.   One of their coaches half joked to me that they could go 5-5 regular season and win the state championship.  Ha ha.
