Last 2 times Estill County has hosted the district tournament, Powell County has won it.

 

Predictions?

I hope Estill makes it a 3 peat and wins the district again. It's not gonna be easy, Powell County is the hottest team in the region right now.

I haven't followed the baseball scene very much this year but from what you have listed it sounds like this one is too close to call. Probably a tossup if both teams are going with their best guys on the mound.

Estill makes it 3 in a row from Powell and could possibly meet for the 4th time in regional tourney
