Soxfan1 Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 I see what you're saying.......well then: Powell - D.Owenby, H.Owenby, Skeen, and maybe Ledbetter Halls - Painter and Corcione A.C. - Durand and maybe Roberts and Newman O.R. - maybe Lane Karns - Hill (not a power pitcher but I still like this kid) T-looks good...I agree with the list. Saw Hill throw yesterday...he is stronger and throws faster too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebaseballguy04 Posted February 17, 2012 Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 One thing is for sure, H.V. is one of the best coached teams in the district. They will cause major issues on the bases for other teams. Well coached speed is deadly. I go out of my way to make the powell games each year because of the polar opposite playing styles match up against each other. Can't wait for the season!

ORbaseball Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 Some quality pitchers that I know of are: Powell - D.Owenby, H.Owenby, Skeen, Long (elbow injury), Kidd, Weaver, and Ledbetter Halls - Painter, Corcione, Sylvester, and Galyon A.C. - Durand, Roberts, and Newman H.V. - Kirk and Weiler O.R. - Lane Karns - Hill I know there are others....please feel free to add to the list. Just about all of these kids played on Summer showcase teams, and played at a PerfectGame tournament (www.perfectgame.org), where they (not coaches or parents!)keep track of a pitcher's fastest pitch and post it on their profile (if you're interested). All you have to do to see these profiles is register for the "free" stuff, then search on a player's name. All of the players listed above are listed at mid-70s to a high of 88mph (D. Owenby). Lane was 2nd fastest at 86, with a couple more at 85 (such as H. Owenby and Painter). Season is almost here, so good luck to everyone out there, and God's blessings on keeping all the players safe and healthy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORbaseball Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 I think it would be better to rate power arms per school...how would you see it then? Not sure anyone but Powell, Halls and AC have what any of us would call power arms. That to me is the difference in High School baseball. Add Hunter Tackett of AC to the list of "Power Pitchers" in 3AAA. He was throwing 86mph at PerfectGame last year between his Freshmen and Sophomore year. From reading the write-up on thier site, sounds like he's inconsistent, but coaches will take God-given power any day and try to work with it over trying to make a good pitcher faster. We will see soon enough whose got and who doesn't. Season is right here on us! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Word on the street is AC lost Tackett for a good portion of the season from an accident. Can anyone more "in the know" AC fans help us out on this? Word I'm getting out of AC is Tackett was in line to be shortstop, #2 pitcher, and leadoff. This could seriously hurt the Mavs if true and I doubt they will contend without him. Good Luck to AC and all teams in 3AAA. Edited February 23, 2012 by WillieMaysHayes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My understanding is they have lost him for most of the season....snowboarding accident. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillieMaysHayes Posted March 6, 2012 Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 My understanding is they have lost him for most of the season....snowboarding accident. Say Hey! Willie Mays Hayes here again! That is unbelievable. I seen AC along with Webb, West and Seymour this weekend. Seymour was the best from what I gathered of the 4. The other three looked very average.

A.C.....................? Clinton...............?(playing better) Karns.................? Campbell Co......? Central...............? Please add to this. Oak Ridge is 5-4 with losses to HVA, Halls, Powell and Clinton. They still have to play Clinton, Halls, and Powell one more time, as well as two each against Central and Campbell Co. It looks like O.R. will be competing with Clinton and AC for the 4-6 seeds. Clinton is playing much better; "scrappy" is the best way to describe them, especially on offense.
