    impact baseball top-50

    I noticed that impact baseball has put out a top-50 list for North Carolina players. If anyone has access to this or can view this, could you please post it on this site. I'm just curious to see who's on the list and the order, etc. but i don't wand to pay $50 just to see it. thanks

    As a moderator ...

    If any such proprietary information is posted, the information will be deleted as soon as discovered.

    I understand.

    We can't do this yet. We have requested Impact to let us respond to individual questions, but they have not decided yet. Once they do decide we may be able to answer your question.

    Answering question concerning proprietary information can get the poster in a heap load of trouble for copyright infringement. The board would be liable to provide information concerning the poster etc etc etc.

    I'll post the details one way or another concerning their response.

    Impact Baseball

    Andy Partin has graciously allowed us to answer limited questions concerning his Top 50 list.

    You may ask: "Where is Joe Shmoe on Impact Baseballs Top-50 list?"

    The response: If Joe Shmoe is 4th or 7th on the list, you may answer "Joe is in the Top 10". If Joe Shmoe is is 11th, you may answer "Joe is in the Top 20".

    Not absolutes, but relative. The list will not be displayed on this web site.

    Many services NEVER ALLOW their information to be displayed in such a format. It was very gracious of Andy to allow this much and I know that we appreciate it ... I certainly do.

    <Beginning of Shameless, Unrequested Plug>

    Impact Baseball provides a great service to the High School players in North Carolina. It has become one of the top regional showcases in the Nation. With Impact increasing participation in the North Carolina State Games and expanding into S.C. and Southern Virginia, his costs to provide this service has risen. His web site has become a subscription service.

    If you love HS Baseball, very few people in the entire state are doing more to promote it than Andy Partin. I would encourage you to subscribe to his service, for our players and for the continued growth of high class regional showcases in our area.

    Is Andy's top 50 list composed of 2003 graduates only?


    I also agree that anyone that enjoys highschool baseball should register for Impact's membership and then send Andy a hearty thank you for the tremendous "impact" he has had on high school baseball players in our region.

    Keep up the good work!

    Yes. It's the '03 guys only - it's a list of the College/Draft eligible players from NC.

    Yeah

    Andy has worked in S.C. and is moving stronger into the state. His '03 follow list in S.C. is pretty complete.

    '04 lists are harder right now. Last year you might have been an outstanding Sophomore SS but you were playing behind Senior Kenny Smith up at TC Roberson (NC Player of the Year). Pre-season '04's will have some omissions - but who is there reflects some great quality.

    The S.C. '04 list is the same way - there are some omissions but I know Andy is going to rectify that as he expands.

    Virginia's list is in the developmental stages right now. The VA Beach area is loaded with outstanding players. Like anything, when you have so much to cover - it takes a little time to build it up.

    The NC stuff is (generally) right on...It's way to early for the 05's to be a blip on the screen. By mid-season, he will probably have a good feel for the top 05's in the state ... 06's that he hears about are generally filed away for the future I bet. Too much can happen between freshman and senior year of HS.
