Who are the top teams in the 56'th district this year?

Any one of the four could win it. Best matched distict in the mountains.

It will come down to who plays the best defense. I think every team will hit well, and all of the teams play similar styles. Fundementals and defense wins championships!

Lee Co. will be solid with Thomas, Perkins, Eversole, Shuler. Estill Co. has had a great program for years so they will be solid as well. Owsley Co. is dangerous with Smith back addes a great bat and a more pitching. Powell Co. got hit hard with graduation but will be a dangerous team as well.

Will have to take Lee and Estill in the finals with Estill pulling out the win.

Powell lost A LOT last year, all around. Owsley is still young, with the exception of Smith. But with a young new coach could possibly suprise some people this year. Still think it will be a couple of years to build the program back up.

i still like powell, they have dominated the region for the past three years and still have talent. they know how to win in district and have done it many times before. i look for that to take them through this year with lee in a close second.

All i can say is "watch out for Owsley!"

Powell has lost a lot. To pick them to outright win the 56th? They will compete because Varney will have them ready and believing but Lee returns the entire boat,Owsley can't be overlooked with new coach and returning talent and estill always has talent and competes. Should be a great district and no patsies here. Can Powell fill the void in center,on the mound, and behind the plate. I know they have some quality second baseman that can play and help fill that void but the other 3 will be tough.

I thought Osborne was one of there studs?? Did he graduate?

I wasn't sure if he graduated or not:confused:

Does anyone know?

Lee Co. is rerturning every player from last season's team.

Obviously powell has a quality secondbaseman that can help out at that position, but as for replacing everyone i feel like the only ones that will be tough to replace are there CF that could hit, and banjo on the mound. As for behind the plate they have a new catcher that is better defensively IMO than last years catcher. He can also hit a bit. RF will not be hard to replace, they have a boatload of outfielders which will also help replace their CF.

Lee , Estill , Powell ,Owsley in that order but very little difference could make a big change in the order

The 56th is the best district in the 14th and possibly the mountains. Lee County is a perennial power that is always a threat. Estill will have to adapt to the district change but should also perform well. Owsley will be a good team this year they have a new coach and alot of returning talent. Powell will miss Coach Dean but as always should have a dangerous team. It is a toss up on who wins this district. I cant wait for the games to begin.
