Not to leave anyone out. I know very little about Macon or Magnet , Cannon will be a threat with their pitching,  Hale is pitching very well right now and there defense has improved a lot of the last

So what would you have done? I'm curious. Got to talk to someone who was there and said there were less than 10 "hittable" pitches thrown all night. It was either in the clouds or rolling on the groun

I agree with the Dekalb folks. I wouldn't tell my freshman to get out on purpose either. People complain all the time. Cry about how bad LA/Cannon/UH win in girls bball. Lots of crying about UH scores

I wasn't there either, but I can assure you Coach Bond is not one to run the score up on anyone. Do you eventually just start telling your kids to walk into outs? That's just as disrespectful in my eyes. There are six freshmen on this team other than Caplinger and I would be willing to bet they went in very early in this one.

 

Yes, the score was insane, but knowing Bond I would highly doubt the score was "run up." There's only so much you can do if a team can't get an out or pitch one even close enough to swing at.

If 31-0 isn't running it up I would hate to know what you think is. Bond is not the saint you think he is I don't guess

This. I mean I don't agree with running scores up, but there comes a time when you just don't know what else to do. You can't just get out on purpose. How fair is it to tell the ones finally getting playing time to screw up on purpose? From my experience, after playing good teams all weekend with great pitchers, the ball almost seems to be in slow motion when you play against a pitcher that isn't quite what you are used to. Not a knock on her, but just a guess at what happened.

What would you have done? Ok girls I know this is your only chance for playing time but I need you to go get out for me. No.. If you can't get three outs on back ups then I guess that's sad.

There are really good teams playing really bad teams almost every day in high school softball and I have yet to see a score like that.

That score helps no one.

It's simple you get out. Early off base is out. I know you will say that's moe embarrassing but only people at park know that happened. everyone in state see the score on coach t

Young rising star all that means nothing there are much better teams out there that don't do that to other teams. It has nothing to do with kids it's all on the coach.

      Clinton names new OC

      I have no issues with the Karns Middle School program.   Good coaches and he's with the kids he goes to school with.  He's a rising 6th grader who had to play with 6th grade kids last year because Karns didn't have enough kids for a 5th grade age team.  He's in a good place at this point.   My daughter is a single mom with 4 kids under 11 years old.  We help her out with logistics, so staying in our own area right now is important.  Once he gets to high school age, who knows what happens?  That bridge will be crossed when we get there.

      I know he was a backup but I thought he filled in well when the starter went down. Never a bad thing to have a change of pace back

      That would be a good get for them. Lowe always finds a way. Pretty sure they have their Rb from last year returning but not that line of beef

      One school has said it, it was York…who Oneida and many school that played them before we did claimed that they were the dirtiest bunch they’ve played. Riverside didn’t call us dirty nor did smith after they beat us. Ur only dirty if your the one giving out the whoopins.

      If it was anyone but #8 I would agree with you. Theirs a couple people on that team that probably would. Not him. And I who was standing on the 1st base line fence saw clearly that the boys foot was covering more than half the bag.
