3A Conference Standings:

Think outside the box , Stretchy.

Send a 6-man crew to the 4th place game too. That way 12 umpires will have some work. Or at least send 1 to flip the official coin.(lol) You know, the way this economy is, we need to look after all the officials.

Just for history's sake, in 2007 the NEW 6 #4 seed upset South Johnston in the 1st round of the state playoffs. You never know.

 

Cape Fear going down to the wire!

NEW 6 Tiebreaker Game: Tonight!

The NEW 6 tiebreaker game is tonight ( weather permitting).
1. Rocky Mount 9-1 18-2
1. Northern Nash 9-1 14-6

Both teams traded 2-0 wins.

Game will be held @ Northern Nash (7:00 pm)

At stake is the #1 seed in the upper part of the 3A bracket.
Winner is guaranteed 2 home playoff games.
Loser will get 1 opening round home game & then may have to travel possibly for the 2nd, 3rd, & 4th rounds.(depending on who wins other games)

Both teams are playing well.
Northern Nash is much improved from the beginning of the season.

Just my opinion: Both teams are going to do very well no matter where they fall in the brackets. Rocky Mount won the state championship last year as the #2 seed & they can surely do it again. The winner is looking at a possible 3rd round match-up with Eastern Wayne, but that would've happened anyway eventually. Because of pitching, I favor Rocky Mount or Northern Nash over Eastern Wayne anyway. Rocky Mount's 1-2 punch of Hobbs Johnson & Benton Moss makes them a hard team to score runs against in the playoffs & I feel they are better equipped to make a long playoff run than Northern Nash.

 

SPC

Marvin Ridge 15-0, 19-3
Anson 10-5, ?-?
Piedmont 9-6, 12-9
Porter Ridge 8-8, 11-11
Hickory Ridge 7-8, 9-10
Sun Valley 7-9, 10-11
Concord 7-9, 10-12-1
AL Brown 5-11, 5-17
Parkwood 2-14, 4-17

Could have a tie for second and a tie for fifth after tonight, which tiebreakers may not settle. Could go to a draw for #2 and #5

 

He is always

Thinking out side the box. The batters box.

Sorry had to do it.

 

hey plate dad - will you make the trip to Jamestown Friday to watch your boys play Ragsdale?

 

Thought about it

Not made any this year. Seem work just hits at the wrong times and I can't turn it away. But, still been trying to support at couple of them.

 

oh well - I was hoping to meet the man, the myth, the legend. And you too if you made the trip.

Maybe next year when they start conference games.
