After a freak injury to Tyler Ratliff in warm-ups Model came out sluggish. After the bats got going a little bit everything was ok. Chris Combs pitched 5 innings for the shutout. Model improves to 2-0 on the season.

Model's good. We have a good group of senior that have all been playing varsity since 8th grade and four pitchers who can each win a game on a given day.

Michael Bottoms Hit a 3-Run home run for Mercer. I believe he pitched that last 2 innings and gave up 8 runs. I know all of them were not earned not sure on the amount though. I assume you're talking about Justin Morgan. He didn't do very much in this game. He's a good ball player though.

Mercer County jumped out to an early 3-0 lead after the first inning and extended it to 6-0. In the 6th Model scored 2 runs and in the 7th Model scored 6 runs to take a 8-6 lead. Davis Wells pitched the last 2 1/3 innings for the win. Model held Mercer County to four hits. Mercer County's 6 runs came on 2 3-Run home runs. One Model player and one Model coach were ejected in the top of the 7th. http://www.richmondregister.com/articles/2006/03/28/sports/sports03.txt for the article

In the first game of the night Madison Central and Madison Southern face each other. I see this being a good game for a half but then Central will use their superior depth athleticism to wear down Southern Southern - 62 Central - 76 In the second game of the night Berea will play Model. This will be the third time these teams have met this season with Berea winning both the prior matchups. Everyone knows it's hard to beat a team three times in a season. Model - 65 Berea - 67 In the Finals Central and Berea will face each other for the second time with Central remaining the District Champion. Berea - 58 Central - 77

When I get in a slump, I just keep hitting. My slumps usually consist of hitting the ball right at someone. Baseball is a game of failure. Slumps are part of the game and everyone has them. I believe you just have to keep doing the things you've done to get as far as you've gotten.

I'm sure they do. Many teams do not have their full schedules up yet.

I would be in.

I just spoke with one of the players and he said Model won on a last second shot with 3.1 remaining on the clock

I've played in two district tournaments (well actually only one since I was out with a knee injury last year) but anyway, you can notice the fans in the game. I especially noticed them in the game i sat out of. When you're playing you normally cant hear the crowd anyway so it isn't really that big of a factor.

Their christmas tourny doesnt draw near the crowd the district would. what else do u think there is to it?

The distirct doesnt rotate because only two of the schools have the facilites to host it. Plus its more exciting for a player to get to play on a college floor.

3 out of the last 4 years. Last year was the exception.

Model vs. Berea Madison Central vs. Madison Southern Once again the two top teams in the district play in the first game.

Model is going this year and we don't play a team from Kentucky. I know we play three teams from Canada. Not sure where the other teams are from.

The 11th is always one of the toughest in the state.

Trust me, Richmond has far more than 28 hotel rooms. There is a Best Western, Comfort Suites, Days Inn, Econo Lodge, Hapmton Inn, Holiday Inn Express, Jameson Inn, La Quinta Inn, Red Roof Inn and Knights Inn. There are also some in Berea which is a 10 minute drive.

Notice that atleast two of those teams won't even make it to regions

While we don't have the largest gym in the world it can seat more than 200. We have a balcony which seats a lot of people on any given night and its actually 5 rows of bleachers not 3.

Sayre (15-2) picked the tempo up with just more than three minutes remaining in the third quarter and got the one run needed to beat Model (4-12) on Tuesday. “I knew it would probably come down to just one run,” Patriot coach Kent Miller said. “I shouldn't have let our guys run. ... We missed a couple of shots in transition and they made theirs.”
