Millertime44 Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Ludlow led 1-0 into the top of the 7th. Dixie comes back and plates 6 in the top. Same type of scenario as the day before at Scott. Ludlow needs to learn how to finish off these high quality opponents. Looks like they are getting good pitching and defense but not scoring a lot of runs.

uselessinfo Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 The fact that Ludlow is competing with the best team in the coaches poll in the region speaks volumes about their team!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chatty Cat Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 I'll speak for our Ludlow baseball parents , we are thrilled with what Coach Gray has done with our program. There are some talented kids at Ludlow. The pitcher for Ludlow last night (Slone), is a 15 year old sophomore. He threw a heck of a game, held Dixie to 0 runs through 6 innings. Walked the first batter in the 7th inning, the batter stole to second, next batter hit a base hit which scored the tieing run. He was pulled after that. He probably threw 80+ pitches. I will say, when he was pulled, many of the Dixie parents stood up and clapped for him. I hope that made him feel better, because the look on his face was total dejection. The Scott game the night before was 1-1 going into the 6th inning. These boys are getting parts of the puzzle right. They just need to put it all together.

callwhatyousee Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 If anyone knows Coach Gray they know he is a tough coach. But it sounds like the kids are really buying into the program and its great to see & hear. I've heard nothing but good things about Ludlow this year. Best of luck to Coach Gray and the Panthers in the weeks to come and in the post season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old_Bulldog Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Does anyone know where everyone stands in the district to this point? I'm guessing that this was a seed game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clyde Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 The pitcher for Ludlow last night (Slone), is a 15 year old sophomore. He threw a heck of a game, held Dixie to 0 runs through 6 innings. Ludlow has a freshman who pitches JV who is very raw but has a very live arm. He can be a nice complement to Slone down the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nkuclubbaseball19 Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Dixie 2-0 Ludlow 0-1 St Henry 0-0 Villa 0-1 I believe Ludlow is 0-2 with losses to Lloyd and Dixie. Lloyd is atleast 1-0, don't know about other games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Content1 Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 ^ slacker....:lol2: Don't forget about Lloyd, they've got a very good group of freshmen athletes coming up who are very good on the gridiron. Curious as to whether or not that will transfer to the diamond in a couple years. Congrats to the Colonels on the win against Ludlow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportsnut859 Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Ludlow has a freshman who pitches JV who is very raw but has a very live arm. He can be a nice complement to Slone down the road. I believe that is Dylan Vogt. You are correct. If he develops more of an off-speed pitch he will be tough as he gets older. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
futurecoach Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 I believe that is Dylan Vogt. You are correct. If he develops more of an off-speed pitch he will be tough as he gets older. Dylan Vogt will be a good one, but if I had to guess he is talking about Devon Roberts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

footmaster Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 I will say this about Ludlow... 1) Coach Gray is the real deal 2) they have some very good players that people are going to be hearing more from Off the top of my head: Geoff Thornsburg (sr) - if there are many better center fielders in NKY, I'd love to see them Tyler Lyons (jr) - solid pitcher and catcher Tyler Durham (jr) - has to be hitting about .400 on the year. Seems like every other game he has 2 or 3 hits Evan Slone (so) - one of the best young talents Ludlow has seen in years. He can hit, pitch and has played a solid SS all year T.C. Eads (fr) - this kid has played every position on the field this season except first base. Solid young player With Coach Gray's leadership, I really think Ludlow is a team to keep an eye on.

footmaster Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 Another quick note on the Dixie v Ludlow game... Both pitchers, Slone (Ludlow) and Smallwood (Dixie) were outstanding. And they're both only sophomores...could be some awesome battles between those two for the next couple of years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
