Nobody is taking the homerun away, it just doesnt count as a earned run. Its actually very simplistic to understand if you think about it.

Absolutely, they beat a Camels team that had just won 7 straight games. They just wanted this one more than the Camels.

Does anyone have any info on the specifics of the game.

If an error occurs that would have resulted in the inning ending then the ensuing runs would be unearned. I dont understand where the walk or bases on ball situation came into play. The error that was made before the kid hit the home run was by the previous batter. This enabled the kid that hit the homerun to have the opportunity to hit. Bases on balls are always an earned run unless the inning should have been over.

There were 2 outs when the error was made. That would have been the 3rd out. All of the runs after that were unearned because we should have been out of the inning.

The Camels also have Simon Kenton immediately following the Calvary Christian game at 7:30pm.:banana:

I think that you have to throw NCC in there as well. On a good day and with Jeramie Connor pitching they can beat anyone.

Jordan Woodruff from Campbell County is tough to hit and is the ace of the squad. He has had some bad luck with errors from the team.

I will go along with Maile and Nutini.

Thank you

This is absolutely ridiculous and should never have been posted. The KHSAA should put in a rule that no team should ever lose by more than 15 runs. It is a terrible situation that should and could have been avoided. Just stop the game after the 1st inning was completely over and explain the situation to the coaches. The poor kids on the Eminence team will not learn anything from this game other than adults allowed this to happen.:irked::irked::irked::irked::irked::irked:

I know Conner has been playing well but if they played this well against this Lexington team then NKY definitely needs to be represented with more teams in the coaches state rankings. I guess more NKY coaches need to vote. Great job Conner!!!!!!!!!!!!!:ylsuper:

Where did that come from?

The Camels win in the bottom of the 7th. on a bad throw from the catcher on a passed ball trying to get the runner from advancing to 3rd. Andy Franzen ( Camels ) hits a huge 2 run homer to tie the game in the bottom of the 6th. Ben Dryer pitches 4 good innings and Ben Franzen 3 innings. Lloyd had 1 earned run. Good game Camels.:thumb::thumb: Camel are now 2-4 on the season and looking like they want to pull everything together.

I stand corrected and hope things continue to get better for the Camels.

I think your comment about moving him up right now with his grades are correct. Would it hurt the head coach to chew him out and tell him that he has the potential. Some kids think what the heck when they feel as though they are as good or better in this case and noone is paying attention.

The errors will not be going away. These are simple plays that 90 % of the kids in SWOL make all of the time. Coach Heringer may be a nice man but he isnt the right person to evaluate talent. Even better, lets hear his credentials?

He is tough with very good control.

Northern Kentucky Players

I will definitely agree with that but when he does he needs to be called up. As a sophomore he is definitely a better hitter than anyone on the varsity as a hitter with the possible exception of Woodruff. He just does not strike out. He is also more athletic in the field and with a lot stronger arm than anyone attempting to play short.

You are right that Shay was not in the lineup because of eligibility. Sellers is a junior and alot better than a jv player. Broering played fall ball with the boys and this will be his 1st year for summer ball with them. There are alot of programs with 20+ players and while I dont think that you need to water down the team, I do believe you need to have options. If everyone thinks the defense will come around from playing games I submit to you a very long season that will be a huge disappointment. These guys should be practicing every possible chance that they can get.:irked:

If the Camels have 9 pitchers on the varsity why is it then that the same 2 are being used all of the time. All I am saying is that Sellers is a proven reliever and closer at not only the JV level but his age level in summer ball as well. He plays in the SWOL league with Shay, Estes and Coffman. I have also seen some disturbing plays at short that were fundamentally unsound for high school players. Andy Franzen is the only one that has a clue and his arm just isnt strong enough to consistently go in the 6 hole and throw runners out. If Shay were at short and Franzen at 2nd the infield up the middle would be tough as their would be alot of athleticism.

Nick Shay played at Scott as an 8th grader. He has been at Campbell County since his freshman year. This kid can really play and hit.

All 5 of Dixie's runs were unearned. Camel defense was horrible at best. The Nichols kid did shut down the Camels. He kept them off balance the whole way. I think he only gave up 3 hits. Woodruff pitched 3 solid innings until his defense fell apart. Better luck tomorrow Camels against Highlands. The Camels need to bring Nick Shay up to play shortstop as his glove and bat and arm are better than anyone on the varsity. Zach Sellers should also be brought up to do long relief and close. Woodruff is pitching too good to lose games like this.:irked:

Any thoughts on who will win?:confused:
