The Admirals (30-8) and Lions (25-9) kick off the tournament on Thursday, June 2nd at 10:00am at Kentucky Proud Park in Lexington. Danville checks in at #7 in the latest PBR Kentucky Top 25. Boyd County is unranked, but has won 20 of its last 22 games.

Game changers

Brady Morse (Danville) .480 BA | 47 RBIs | 10-2 with a 1.65 ERA 

Jake Biggs (Boyd Co.) .452 BA | 43 runs scored | 1.46 ERA in 48 innings pitched

Luke Preston (Boyd Co.) .477 BA | 5 HRs | 33 RBIs

The Ads can slug with the best of them, leading the state in team home runs. Boyd has options on the mound to try and tame that line-up. My guess would be 16th Region Player of the Year Jake Biggs gets the call, but sophomore Jacob Vanover is very strong #2 option. It's just a matter of, do you take a chance on a sophomore to get you past a potent Danville line-up? Or do you roll with your veteran star right out of the gate? Biggs would be my call.

Should be a very good game. I don't think Danville's pitching is quite as good as last season but the Admirals still have arms. Curious if Danville making a second straight trip will give them a leg-up on a Boyd County club making their first state trip in eight years.
