PureFP Posted May 27, 2003 Report Share Posted May 27, 2003 OK, just for fun, cause anything can happen between now and then. In order. AAA Cumberland County....they only lose a senior infielder and a senior outfielder. New kids on the block won't be starry-eyed next year. Soddy Daisy....lose many seniors including their pitching and the best hitter in the state, but heck, they reload, not rebuild. Hendersonville Coffee Co Rossview Hunter's Lane.... lose 5 key seniors, but their pitcher wasn't one of them. It is too hard to replace that many key players without a hick-up. AA David Lipscomb... they lose 2 seniors, no pitchers, and are rebuilt with youth already on the team. East Ridge.... They lose 2 seniors but retain their pitching will gain from their mistakes of 2003. Greenbriar... They lose 2 seniors including a pitcher, but seem to be well poised to return to Memphis. Lenior City.... Surprised everyone....no surprises in 2004. Gibbs.... Another powerhouse that knows no rebuilding. They lose their ace, but another waited her turn. A Goodpasture .... Like anyone has to doubt. They lose a senior at second and one in center field. Powerful hitting and pitching. Boyd Buchanan...Lose 4 seniors but retain their pitching. Any other year and they would be the hands-down favorite, but GP has a dynasty on their hands. These 2 teams are soo strong that I won't even bother with 3rd or below. Div II Baylor .... They lose a lot of girls...as in 1. nuff said. The rest won't come close, but..... St. Benedict....They had an angel in the outfield in 2003. 2004 could be less emotion and more talent. Brentwood Academy..... Lose 3, retain pitching, and teach the young'uns how to smack the ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gre8t2003 Posted May 27, 2003 Report Share Posted May 27, 2003 PureFP... FYI, Greenbrier loses three seniors and Goodpasture loses two, one at second and the catcher, not the centerfielder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sportsguy1 Posted May 28, 2003 Report Share Posted May 28, 2003 Boyd-Buchanan only loses 2 starters, short-stop Emily Broyles and outfielder Lauren Lusk. Both are excellent players but in reality with the girls that Boyd has they will be at least at the same level they were this year if not better. It very well could be Boyd and Goodpasture in the state finals again next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zachsdad Posted May 28, 2003 Report Share Posted May 28, 2003 Hume-Fogg did lose 4 very valuable players, but they have players coming up who can contribute immediately. Sally Dye (not Boyce) will be a team leader after sitting out a transfer year. Several freshman with travel and middle school experience will be coming in, E. Brooke Heriges, Taylor Childress and Ashley Arnold. Others from this years team will be counted on to step their game up a notch. As for the East Lit situation, we'll just have to see how that plays out. They will still be a force, but just like all but 4 teams, the battle cry is "just wait till next year!"

AllisonE17 Posted May 28, 2003 Report Share Posted May 28, 2003 HAHA my bad!! I don't know what I was thinkin, sorry Sally!! **how embarrassing....** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllisonE17 Posted May 29, 2003 Report Share Posted May 29, 2003 I don't think East Lit will be making a team next year. East Lit is a very small school, and only a select few even wanted to play softball. The two magnet schools can combine to produce a powerful team. Anyways, I'm sure the girls from East Lit wouldn't change a thing. They love playin for Hume Fogg. Sally DYE (lol) transferred from St Cecilia and played for the Eagles alongside with Megan Rhodes and our own Lauren Manna. She had to sit out a year. But yes, HFA does have some good players coming in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
