Here is my list of the Top Seniors for 2016. Lot of great choices out there and a lot of great players so it is really tough coming up with the 13-15 best. Anyway I enjoy the hand wringing and arguing that goes along with all of these lists. I just can’t wait to get the season started and I am sure the rest of you feel the same. I'm sure I have left a few off.

 

OK. Here we go. In no certain order

 

1. Allison Schubert-OF East Jessamine. Member of the East/West and All state team in 2015. Hit 481 with 10 HR’s. Seems like a lot of E. jessamine on these list. Have to be a strong choice to get back to Owensboro.

2. Hannah Ridolfi-P/1B McCracken. East/West and All State in 2015. Union commit. Hit 489 with 3 HR’s and was 11-0 on the mound. Really solid player and a stalwart in the McCracken program.

3. Morgan McElroy-SS Madisonville North Hopkins. East/west member. UK Commit I believe. Hit 398 last year for the best offensive team in the Commonwealth.

4. Paige Dabney-C/1B Campbellsville. Member of All State and East/West team in 2015. Hit a whopping 680 with 11HR’s.

5. Rachel Ayer-C Meade County. All-State and East/West member. Bellarmine commit. Hit 500 with 12 HR’s in 2015. One of those challenging for All time HR record in KY. Great kid and player.

6. Caitlin Ferguson-SS Woodford Co. UL Commit. Another talented piece of this 2015 roster for Woodford. All State in 2015. Makes a ton of plays for her team particular on the defensive side.

7. Malin Miracle-3B East Jessamine. Member of East/west team in 2015. Hit 458 with 16HR’s

8. Jazzy Howard-SS Magoffin. All state in 2014 and 2015 and member of East/West team. Hit 362 last year.

9. Mikayla Vires-P/OF North Laurel-member East/West. Hit 383 and had 4 HR’s in 2015 also lead her team on the mound with a 21-8 record.

10. Sidney Vaughn-3B/U Madison Central really good leader and hitter for MC. Member of 2015 All State team as well as East/west member

11. Jordan Ison-C Scott County. Really a calming influence for the Cardinals behind the plate. Hit 392 and had 3 HR’s for the 11th region champs.

12. Shelby Atzinger- Holy Cross Louisville. East/West and All State member. Can do a whole lot of different things for the underrated Holy Cross Cougars.

13. Shelby Graybill-Highlands and UL Commit. Best player in Northern Kentucky for the 2016 campaign. Very versatile and can hit it with the best of them.

14. Randi Conway-2B/OF Union County. Member East/West and All State team in 2015

I would add Haley Coffey from Highlands. Yes, she's my daughter, but she's also one of my players. She played SS for the Cincy Static with Graybill. They finished top 4 ranked in ASA. She played short and lead off or hit second for them. Outstanding defensive player and some of the best hands I've seen...and yes I've seen a lot!!!

 

Again, she's my daughter, but anyone that knows me knows I never toot anyone's horn unless it's warranted. I will promote all my players, even my daughter.
