If they have that much pitching they’ve got to be the favorite in single A

Yes they do.  I've umpired their games and they are good starters 2-4.

East Robertson has 1 pitcher who can throw 95+ and 4 who throw 80+. Really deep staff with some good bats.

Make that 5, another one of their kids topped out at 81 tonight. 5 kids throwing 80+ and 1 throwing 95+. Absolutely baseball factory up in Robertson county

It's all just talk. Go back to '16 and check the threads and you'll find that most people were ready to crown Loretto champs the day of the draw. All the "favorites" except them (they were #1 most of the season) were in the opposite bracket, but one of the cupcakes happened to upset the apple cart by beating the #1 team twice, then the defending champs to win it all .

  Moral of the story...everyone there has earned the right to be there by winning the games that would have sent them home...being crowned champs takes the same effort that they've all shown already.

How 2019 when my Cherokees stunned Trinity to win Gold?!

How’s everyone feeling about the games tonight? I might make the trip to Riverdale this evening to watch the games being played there

Summertown and ER seem to be much better than anyone else I’ve seen so far.

They are very very good, fortunately they are going to cannibalize each other!

NG threw their ace tonight so he won’t be available for rest of tourney. They have about 2 more pitchers tops

Small righty that throws low 80’s...best pitch is his curve ball if it’s on. Has been struggling lately but can be really effective....tall righty that throws probably mid 70’s, nothing fancy.

I didn’t get the chance to make it in time for Summertown’s game unfortunately but was able to make it for the ER game. They were really solid, especially their pitching. I would’ve like to see the starter for Lake County be able to go farther in that game to see if they could’ve kept it closer. I’m not sure what happened to him (looked like some discomfort somewhere while pitching).
