Anyone care to comment on the 6th Region teams?

I predict:

1. Bullitt East (always my sentimental favorite)

2. Mercy

3. Butler

fill in the rest

I wasn't sure whether Mercy was a 1 or 2. Only seen them play twice last season (SHS & Male games)

My DD played travel with the B.E. Raymer girls this fall, tough as nails. I also got to face BE in their fall league.

Holy Cross will have to be in my top 3. Tony Young will do well and has lots of talent. Only gave up 70 runs last season (although they only played 34 games)

Butler has a lot of familiar names. Always a tough

Bullitt Central still has Szpilla one more season. Her bat was huge last season. Along with Dukes and Noble.

Southern still has Metcalf (Jr) on the mound. Pretty sure they would like another crack at Mercy. I know that Anderson (Jr) has her little sister on the squad this year so she will have them motivated and focused.

PRP losing McDuffie would have an impact. But they still have Murphy, Mitchell and the lil freshman, Anderson. PRP has always been a scrappy squad.

 

1. Bullitt East

2. Mercy

3. Holy Cross

4. Butler

5. Southern

6. PRP

7. Bullitt Central

8. Fern Creek

9. North Bullitt

10. Fairdale

what i see as mercy's biggest shortcoming will be pitching...now, i clearly have to clarify that statement, because they still have thomas for another 2 years, and she is undisputed top shelf, but she can't pitch every game, nor should she...raymer at BE with that large, strong senior class and another quality pitcher to give her rest, I think, will get it done this year...also, not convinced mercy's latest coaching staff will get them back to owensboro....i won't be as provocative as to say bloomer had two teams at state last spring, but....:whistling:
