I definitely think Nolan Klein (BCHS senior) is someone to keep an eye on. Had a severe injury to his left arm last year but this kid is an amazing hitter with an absolute cannon at 3rd. Better not put the ball in his wheelhouse!
I'm still not totally convinced on Cooper's hitting. We all know AJ and Jared can hit pretty well but outside that I feel like they're all so young. Lawhorn should be okay but I would be opposed to saying Boone's (Klein, Ganns, Huff) hitting is up to par with Cooper
Just to add on to that list, they had Austin Brake, Dustin Herrmann, and Brady Smiley on Ray's Dragons team all of which turned out to be solid pitcher (until austin quit). If you ask me, Ray Brake is one of the best coaches around for that junior high age. So good at teaching mechanics
Don't get me wrong, Herrmann is a solid player. It's either take Blaise's superior fielding skills or Dustin's superior batting ability. Either way, I think it's a good choice for Arlo.
From what I've seen it looks like Hart and Harshbarger catching, Padgett at 1b, Henry at 2b, Williams and Maines at ss & 3b and ross in lf, fogle in cf and blaise in rf. it appears Herrmann has a fight for PT, he may be a pitcher only
I've actually heard rumours of Cameron Ross playing outfield and Padgett moving to 1st base because Conner doesn't have one. Conner is deep at outfield with Fogle, Ostertag, Ross, Padgett, Harshbarger, Herrmann, and Price
One of Cam's teammates from Conner's baseball told me he heard that from Fogle. So obviously it could be a little off but either way he deserves it! And being a UK fan I love what Stoops has done, more 4 star guys this year than in the last 6 combined
Heard recently that UK is going to offer Fogle if they do not get the WR's they've already offered on NSD. I think Fogle would be a great slot guy for Brown in his air-raid offense. Wishing him the best!
Actually, I'd like to see this. We all know that Brown, Maines, Cain, Dunn, Ganns, Tiberi will be solid pitchers but who is everyones favorite "under the radar" guy??
I haven't heard a lot about Ryle on hear. I was thinking that they would have a very strong hitting team with Baumann, Plvan, Clarkson, and and a 1st baseman whose name escapes me
