DiamondDad Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 So after a week and some change, hows it looking? Seems like the district is pretty clumped up at the top and clumped at the bottom and not a lot in between. Karns, Powell, Halls, and maybe AC seem to be the early favorites, in that order. Karns is just a solid ball club who does a lot to put pressure on the other team and doesn't beat themselves. Powell seems strong but streaky and Halls and AC seem to be too heavily dependent on who's throwing to take the top spot as of now. Then on the bottom you have Clinton, Oak Ridge, Central, and CC. Clinton looks to be in panic mode early with their HC being restricted and then dumped in consecutive games. OR, Central and CC just don't have the horses to compete with the upper tier. I think Gibbs is the biggest question mark. Which half of the district will they end up seems to be a coin flip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karns, Powell, and AC look like the favorites to be at the top in the regular season to me. Gibbs could end up near the top if their pitching holds out. I think Halls ends up in the middle followed close by Clinton with Oak Ridge, Central and CC at the bottom. Once the tournament comes it could be a toss up with Oak Ridge and Clinton capable of upsetting the favorites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiamondDad Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 Traditionally I would agree that OR and Clinton were good for a big upset. I just don't think either of them have the players to pull that off this year. Also in the past you had Fronning and Taylor coaching those squads. Noting against the current coaches at OR or Clinton, but I just don't think they're on that level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fish4trout Posted March 30, 2014 Report Share Posted March 30, 2014 Looks like Karns, Powell, and Anderson are the top three teams this year as of right now.Has any one heard much about this week's tournament play? Powell went undefeated in the warrior classic. Not sure about Karns or Anderson co. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regg Posted March 31, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2014 Powell seems to be a hot team as of late. That rotation of Long, Owenby, and Alford is winning a lot of games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlayforFUN Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 There were a lot of scouts at Halls tonight to watch Steen pitch for Oak Ridge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweetScience Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 There were a lot of scouts at Halls tonight to watch Steen pitch for Oak Ridge. Sounds like he did pretty good lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlayforFUN Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 Sounds like he did pretty good lol Oak Ridge looked like the team I thought they would be before the season started. Steen went all 7 innings and looked as strong at the end as he did at the start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
