Lets include players from any team in the 3 main NKY counties.

 

Off the top of my head, I've got Pugh, Sexton, Hoskins, and Norton.

Seniors only?

Not sure what Clyde's rules are for this thread, but a non-senior can win POY.

In seeing him play a couple of times Mr. Hoskins would get my vote closely followed by Pugh.

You have to throw in Laumann and Cotton from Boone. Both have hit 5 HR's and Cotton is near .400 and Laumann is over .400.

.............Long way to go but I would give the nod right now to Sexton batting over .400 along with impressive stats from the mound.

I'll go with Hoskiins right now (yes, some Ryle bias there), but I would like to hear some of Laumannm's pitching stats, if anyone has them. I was pretty impressed watching him throw last week. If he has some nice pitching stats to go with his hitting, it might give him a leg up. Much similar to last year when I (and a lot of other people) thought Isler's combined pitching/hitting stats were worthy of the POY.

Cotton .400, 5HR's, 20 SB's.

Cotton .400, 5HR's, 20 SB's.

 

Cotton .400 ave, 6 HR, 24 SB, 16 RBI's, 18 runs scored and has thrown out at least 6 runners. And on top of all of that he is one of the best defensive outfielders in the state!:notworthy:

Not that I disagree with the defensive part at all, but ultimately the POY is an offensive-based award and defense factors in very little, if at all. His stats look great, but other than the 24 SB (which is indeed impressive) I don't see anything that sticks out above some other candidates.

Laumann: 5 saves, 22K's in 15 innings, .155 ave against him,

Hitting: .397 ave, 5Hr, 21 RBI's, 17 Runs scored and only 4'k in 70 AB

I think this is the kid worthy of being in the discussion that will the most overlooked. The kid can play baseball. I think the Enquirer had his ERA a 0.80 and he a high average with power as well.

Solid.

 

Does he not start (pitching)?

What are Norton and Bezold's stats from Brossart?

yep - they sure were.
