JCfan, gun on Randi last night had her at 56-57 on hard stuff. Another excellent performance by her.

Bledsoe and Arts and Sciences pitchers were the best around Chattanooga this year, so far.

Indian, Bledsoe Co pitcher one of the best I have seen this year as well.

Is there a particular reason that no one on here thinks they can only play ball in riverdale or Chattanooga ?

I would like to know if there are still any good unsigned senior pitchers available in TN? I am not looking for someone who throws 70mph....I am looking for someone with a good fastball and someone who has good movement with good mound presence. Any leads would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hull- UHS, shutout last night provd to me she is one of the top 3-4 in state. Maybe the top junior.

I hate Riverdale. But they can play ball North of Nashville off 1-65. Greenbrier, Goodpasture, Beech, Davidson Academy.........some years White House.

I personally think Megan Prince has to be in the top 5. If she is headed to Kentucky evidently she has the right stuff. Richland will not make it to the state in A ball. To many strong TEAMS in them 2 regions!

Guess that prediction is a little off. Richland plays in championship tomorrow.

As far as "best pitchers" at the state tournament..........Here are just some thoughts I have as a random spectator.

 

There have been a lot of quality pitchers and a lot of them have carried their teams.

 

The Ashton Edwards / Cori Jennings matchup yesterday was a great matchup. I've seen Edwards pitch twice, and Jennings pitch quite a bit. Both are great and I enjoy watching both.

 

Not to take anything away from any of the girls, but here are the one's I like:

 

Edwards stood out to me as pitching. She has been the most dominant I've seen. Now, the competition in A is not what it is in AAA, but in softball, I don't think there is a significant difference between teams at this point. If you are at the state tournament as a Class A team, you are probably better than a majority of the AAA teams. She is a K machine with excellent command and control. Great pitch placement.

 

Jennings has great command and mixes things up as well. The best pitching matchup I've seen thus far has been the Gordonsville/Richland game.

 

Several others I've enjoyed watching:

Makenzie Prince - Smyrna - totally has shut down every opponent I've seen. Great command, pitches, and is a K machine.

 

Girls that are "pitchers" for their high school teams, but they can flat out play -

 

Heather Norris - Clarksville - has been a great pitcher and player for Clarksville. Has really put this team on her back. For them to be at this far in the tournament is a tribute to her.

 

Mimi Cartwright - Goodpasture - Nobody has done more with less than her. Definitely not the most talented squad, but they just know how to win and get it done. Same with Norris, has put th team on her back both offensively and defensively and is just wired different. Excellent leader.

 

Sammy Jo Ivey - Chester County - another great high school pitcher and player. She can hit and play.

 

Young and upcoming pitcher hope to see again:

 

Brooklyn Lee - Dickson County - great young pitcher. Hope DC can make it back to watch in the coming years. Good squad. Chance to redeem themselves today to get back to the finals.
