I know CCH is not real deep in pitching, how does Beechwood's pitching stiff still look?  I would imagine it is advantage Beechwood.

The Tigers have Brett Holladay and Sam Stacy. Holladay faced Covington Catholic in the regular season. He pitched a complete game and allowed 4 runs in a 4-3 loss.

Statistically, the Colonels look to have a deeper pitching staff. I don't know who pitched today for Cov Cath so I can't tell you who is available tomorrow. 

Holladay will pitch for the Beechies. I would imagine Siemer or Wilson for CovCath.

Isler pitched a CG for the Colonels.

That's huge when playing on 3 consecutive days and pitch count limits.

It should presumably set them up well for the game tonight, weather permitting.
