Top '06's and '07's in the state

Addison Johnson (06') is the real deal at North Forsyth

Started and batted lead-off last year as a Freshman on a great team
Has power and speed from the left side

LHP that throws 86-87 with offspeed stuff to go with it

Already has 2 complete games against good 4A competition (Wautauga,West Forsyth), a 1-hitter and 2-hitter respectively

 

Yep...AJ is rated one of the best '06's in the state

 

I can't wait for Mudcat to get hold of this thread so he can talk about Josh Thrailkill up at TC Roberson

 

Watch David Mailman, '07 LHP at Providence.....has great velo, needs a little polish, but he is young. I think he is in the On Deck Program.

 

Thrailkill is the real deal. He is a very polished and mature pitcher beyond his age. Has great command of all his pitches and knows how to set up a hitter and control a game. He had that capacity last year as a freshman. He is not an overpowering thrower, mid 80's right now, but can throw all his pitches for strikes and is very hard to get to. He will only get stronger and projects very high as he has all the physical and mental tools to become a great one. I know I kidded 02^04 mom about Narveson, another TC great, but Thrailkill has the potential to be as good or better. You will not beat this kid. If he was a senior right now, he would have already been signed by a major D-1 program.

 

Mudcat - Clemson, Georgia Tech and South Carolina have already expressed interest in Josh, along with several other D-1 schools.

 

Any other top sophmores or freshmen?

 

jared bard of char. christian i should add and keith mauney of providence are some legit 06's

 

He pitched a good game against alexander central although we did play alwful he should be one to look for big things down the road
