    Good Lawd!!!!! Region 6 threw a 24 spot on the board yesterday?! Unbelievable.

    This should be a great game today. I wonder if Hobbs Johnson will be pitching? If so, I feel with great confidence that Region 6 will not put up another 24 run game.

    I thought Region 5 was the favorite going in. That team was loaded with studs, which speaks loudly of Region 3's talent after a 6-1 win

    My overall observations about the State Games this year:

    - NC has not dropped in talent. There are some absolute studs participating this year. A couple really caught my attention...made you go WOW!

    - Curt Britt (Scotland) may be the head of a very talented class. The kid is phenomenal

    - Zach MacAneney (Western Alamance)- is the real deal. Roams CF like a goalie guarding a net, has a dynamic stick and the kid can pitch, too.

    - Aaron Attaway (Patton) slick fielding ss and a perfect leadoff hitter. Very aggressive player

    - Tyler Poole (Hickory) this kid has a high upside. He has the potential to be a pro prospect. Tall, athletic, strong and a fluid delivery. If he ever decides to concentrate solely on baseball, he has the potential to be really special.

    - Chase McDonald (Rose) His size quickly captures your attention, but his mobility is amazing. Chase actually had the chance to play 3rd yesterday. I don't know if he has ever played that position before, but he looked comfortable and displayed good footwork and soft hands. He's a unique baseball player that is fun to watch.

    There were many more players, but I haven't seen all the teams. After today's games, we'll start a thread about everyone's observations of the players and the games.

    If I could make two recommendations, I would place the Rocky Mount/Wilson area with Region 1. This Region only pulls from one 4A school. Plus, I would split the Charlotte area into it's own Region. With its 12+ 4A schools in it's vicinity, a lot of very talentted kids don't get to play in this event....and to keep the Region even with teams, you could do the same with the Raleigh area.

    Great to hear about these guys. Who were the top pro prospects? Top pitchers (velocity) ?

    I heard Benton Moss was top bolt on day one at 88... I saw Dillon Maples throw 88-93 today for one inning with a knee buckling nasty curve at 76=78... :ph34r:
