GradfromtheNest Posted February 25, 2003 Report Share Posted February 25, 2003 Let me know anything you know about these guys this year. I know they lost a few seniors last year. What's this year looking like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Picasso Posted February 25, 2003 Report Share Posted February 25, 2003 It sure is hard to say anything about any team now with the weather like it has been. It's hard to get around and see what everyone has when everyone's stuck inside. As for Ooltewah, they're not as old and experience as they have been the last 2 or 3 years. They've got some younger guys coming up that will definately give the older guys some motivation to work a little harder. Pitching staff should be deep barring any injuries. The experience of senior righty Will Spann will probably lead the staff. Senior right-hander Adam Trent, who took last year off due to personal reasons is back and throwing very hard. He now needs to work on throwing strikes, but has A LOT of potential come season time. There are a handful of other pitchers, young and old, who will see plenty of innings. As for the lineup, who knows. As said earlier, the more experienced players are being pushed awfully hard by the younger guys. So we'll see how that turns out. No matter what though, the coaching pair that heads up Ooltewah baseball is great. They expect nothing less than 100% from their players, and they really know the game. Not only good coaches, but good teachers of the game as well. Team should be very competitive with state competition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Refowl Posted March 2, 2003 Report Share Posted March 2, 2003 I know a litle about Ooltewah baseball this year, and I think this year is going to be a continuation of last years' winning ways. It took a few games last year for the Owls to get comfortable playing under the new leadership. The team is young, but balanced with just enough older guys to mix talent with experience. I think the lineup is still up for grabs and depends on the next few weeks of scrimmages. Pitching is deep. Should be best team in district.
