Congrats to Chandler. Very impressive youngman. I hope he can stay healthy for the Wildcats sake. Has great command, good downward plane on his fastball, and a nasty slider. Have heard that even after his surgery he has been able to maintain his plus velocity!

Just wondering if anyone played today?

Martha Layne Collins Trailblazers.... Since she was the 1st woman governor for the state, kinda has a nice ring to it.

It is up to individual coaches. Most larger schools have JV players that are Juniors on it due to position depth.

Think South Laurel may be a little high. PRP should be a tad higher. Overall a pretty good list. Don't forget to mention Greenwood, Owensboro Catholic, and Owensboro. Also, Bryan Station has a couple nice arms to make some noise.

As the hot stove draws to a close, who are some teams that could surprise some folks this spring?

Can someone give me the strengths and weaknesses of the top teams?

who are some of the top players in the region beside Russell (anderson Co.) and Pelphrey (Grant Co.)?

Assistant on that coaching staff.

Wondering what schools out there have new coaches? Please name their replacements as well.

It's tourney time in the "Bluegrass". With the tourney starting today, anyone want to throw out some tourney upsets? Does Russell have a shot at beating Greenup? Can Manual beat St. X? Will Scott County beat Henry Clay? What are some interesting first round matchups?

Hard to tell who votes. According to the website, they only had 29 people vote. If this is 29 head coaches total, you definately have a small representation of head coaches voting. Especially if 10 of the 29 are from a certain area. I think the poll would be taken much more seriously if you could have a sample size of 75 coaches compared to 30.

Wondering if anyone went to the Ohio Valley Showcase in Lexington over the weekend. Heard there was a big turnout of players from all over the state. Wondering who stood out? What colleges / pro teams were represented?

Region 1 -Heath (they lost alot.....look for ballard memorial or Marshall Co.) Region 2 -Christian Co.(good choice if they can recover losing their coach) Region 3 -Appollo (clear favorite, lost some important pieces, watch Owensbo.) Region 4 - Bowling Green (very balanced region...several teams could make noise) Region 5 - Larue Co. (Central Hardin and Etown will duke it out for pride of Hardin County) Region 6 - PRP (Dont sleep on Bullitt East and Butler....interesting to see how PRP does post Cox and Osbourne) Region 7 - Eastern (manual is my sleeper pick for the 7th). Region 8 - Anderson Co. (Does Anderson have the pitching to win 8th?) Region 9 - Beechwood (hard to pick against B-wood or Cov. Cath.) Region 10 - Harrison Co. (my favorite to make title run) Region 11 - Lex Cath (good pick, watch out for Creek and Frankfort teams) Region 12 - Danville (IF West can replace Greene, watch out) Region 13 - Corbin Region 14 - Powell Co. Region 15 -Lawrence Co. Region 16 -Greenup Co.
