I might be wrong, but I think the kingrey he is referring to is a LH pitcher with an 01 birthday that played for the usssa pride team

Would guess 48-50 game speed would be your upper avg. There will be a couple around 52-55, and I'm sure there will be some slower. But looking back the last couple years, 48-50 seems to be about the avg.

I'm guessing we need to sell it at concessions instead of hot dogs.. I always thought popcorn was a bball thing??

Looking for Peebles and N.Adams Jr high softball coaches contact info. You can pm me here or comment below. Thx

I've got the popcorn ready for this one....

I understand the concept that every girl needs the opportunity or the more the merrier type of thinking... But why do some schools not cut girls, I'm talking from Jr high to V. I just don't get it. Lets say your school has a pretty large softball community, 20 (10 who have never played, 5 that are d...

I've not met one parent or dad for that matter that gets upset when his daughter plays the OF with an elite team. I'm sure there are exceptions to it, the age, level of play. But, I'm guessing you wont ever see it with an elite type team. If you do, I'm also guessing you will only see it once becaus...

Should be a great season none the less, with any of the top 5-6 being able to win any given Sunday. I don't think there is any 1 dominate team, its going to come down to making the routine plays and putting the bat on the ball. It doesn't matter how good you are 1-9, if you can hit, and create chaos...

All the talk I've heard is saying Ironton is in. If this is true, Ironton will be the team to beat, big bats, and probably the best pitcher in jr high for our area.

I might be wrong, but I think both throwers from last year will still be there. I know the one for sure, not sure about the other though.

Pitching will be the tell-tale. Behind the plate, Burg will have Sturgill (7th), Hale (8th) at Minford, NW will have Newman (8th). All 3 are extremely talented and will hold the runners at bay.

If pitching will hold up for NW and Minford, I'd have to put ND at the 6th spot. ND will have 2 solid pitchers as long as they put their time in this winter. But I think Nw and Minford has a better offense, defense, just can't give up free bases. Then again, its softball, you never know how it will ...

Curious how many or if any teams cut, or if they just have the girls signup and your guaranteed a spot. Are there any advantages/disadvantages to not cut players?

I can't take away from valley, those girls played a great game. Growing up, 13+ years at organized ball, if a player has position for the rebound, and someone got the rebound while having contact with the players back, it was called. No matter if the person was tall or short. That was the difference...

Nope, wasn't really too many blocked shots, but would say close to 15-20 over the backs that was never called. Then you get 1 NW girl that tries it and its called. I mean c'mon man, seriously?? NW gets called for a hand check, all Valley was missing on defense was a saddle That's all I'm saying abou...

And the worst officiating game goes to the 8 th grade NW at Valley game. You know you're in for a treat when the ref has a daughter on the home team.....

Got a glimpse of the bracket, not sure if its legit. But if so, how is seeding determined. Curious how the #3 team plays #4 team first round? Is it a blind draw, just curious..

We missed it, but heard the NW @ Oak Hill 8th grade game was a good one also. With NW winning by 1 in OT.

First sched game will be the wk of march 14th

Has anyone seen the bracket for this yet?
