Forgot about him, did he have a good enough year to be considered?

Umm...he had a good season..not the kind of season he could have had, or should have had. I would say not a season to be considered for one of the top 2 SS in the state, but he is in the top 6 or 7 I'd say.

Unless you are talking about Muth for Beechwood?

Sorry, you are correct I meant Pat Muth for Beechwood and sometimes, the school sticks with a name.

Brad Blanton, C , Boyd County

Andrew Blazejewski (Cov Cath)- RF batted .474 13 2Bs 35 runs 42 RBI's 4 3B and 3 HR's

Chris Wade SS for LCA. Has signed with UK

Brad Blanton, C , Boyd County

He's not even a senior. He's also not even the best catcher in the region. Darby is.

My bad, you are correct....Brad is only a Junior.

 

Darby is pretty good, but I would say Brad is better than Darby was as a Junior. Darby is definetly underrated though.:thumb:

If Knott Co. Central had two players worth of being even mentioned for All-State, you would think that they would have had a better year...Two players of that caliber can carry a team.
