Just confirmed, this was never said to Bobby and was never a issue with with his superiors. This was only a sore spot with a couple parents....like I said.

LOL. 7 of the 9 starters from the baseball team last year were tuition kids. No way this is true. There are only a couple parents that believe tuition kids are taking their kids place on sports teams. And, all the kids that get accepted to BW are BW kids.... not just the kids that happen to live near the school. If BW doesn't want tuition kids to make their sports programs better, close tuition.

Not sure who applied, but the interviews were slated for yesterday. Due process will probably take another month. My guess is they chose the 17th because it is exactly 1 month before schools starts and I bet they want to have one in place by that date.

I have no details. I do know this has to be considered a great position. New field, with indoor facility and lights next year and a ton of young players.

I wonder if they could take away regular season games for the following year, if not compliant. Instead of having a limit of 36 games prior to postseason, that team would get 33. I think coaches would take notice.

Apologies. I'm pretty sure that beer authored or co authored this comment. I'm sure if you look back to last year I was hoping that we got another crack at Doty. I'm not smart.

Agreed. Hands down the best coach in the 9th.

Do me a favor... pitch Rom against Beechwood next year. We will make it to State. Doty is a much better pitcher...

Someone explain to me how Doty doesn't make the all tourney team. He takes 'arguably' the best offensive team out out of the tourney and he doesn't make the team? Not only that.... he shuts down Beechwood and leaves the game and Rom gives up the tying run of the game...so they bring back Doty to win....and Rom makes the all tourney team? seems like a joke.

All regional team?

Could someone share photos of Ethan Doty graduating? I want to insure we never see this young man on a 9th region mound again. lol.

Trying to be funny. Pro playoff series' are all 'best of' 3, 5 and 7.... so when people make a prediction they say, "I'll take the Reds in 4" meaning they think the reds will win that series in 4 games total. When I said that I would take Beechwood in 3, there lies the joke.... it will take any team 3 games to win. It was probably a lot funnier in my head. lol.

I'll take Beechwood in 3

Not the first round game I was hoping for, but each side is pretty balanced.

What was the pitching matchup?

We can agree that a 1 seed will not like drawing Conner.

Are you saying they needed to throw their number 1 pitcher to beat a team that went 3-20 this year.... just to be safe? I think they were safe throwing 2-5. Hindsight, the pitcher they did throw did very well in the loss. This would have been a bigger issue had Cooper won, say 3-1 in 7. What I believe happened is that the coach wanted to insure Nick got the school record for wins and thought pitchers 2-3 would beat Cooper or Ryle.

What time is the draw?

Can you tell, from the side, if a pitch is high or low? That's the best angle for that, right? That pitched, when asked by the coach, was called low. Now c'mon.

There was no need for this. You said that he wasn't from NKY and we believe you. You can still have bias... for or against. "Homer" was a bad thread title.

Fun game non the less. Hopefully these teams meet again in championship.

Lol. okay

Well hopefully a Zapruder film of the game will surface. Probably would be too grainy or bad angle. You will never convince everyone. On to another topic.

Just kidding, Clyde. Just admit that the pitch in that photo is a strike and I will add 100 to my donation to the Brighten Center.
