I look for BIG things from E.Rowan come playoff time!!!!!!!

 

Obviously, there have been some changes in records since this poll came out, but my hats off to Cliff. You can tell he has put a lot of thought in this.

In my opinion, this has been the best Sweet 16 poll season in baseball I have ever seen

 

I agree, Cliff the first few polls looked like popularity contests, but this is the best poll I've seen you do this season...

 

Great Job - One Question

Great Job Cliff, but didn't I read that Ardrey Kell beat North Meck?

 

Yes, AK did beat North Meck on Wednesday night.

The poll is put together from the different voters on Wednesday morning and goes to print that night, so it does not reflect Wednesday's games until the following week.

 

Thanks, folks, for reading the Sweet 16 and offering your opinions.....as you know, it changes weekly and it's a compilation of votes.
Never does anyone totally agree with all the picks.

If we have any teams ranked waaaaay to high or low, please let me know. It's always an interesting race for the top spots this time of the baseball season.

Piedmonts record is actually 11-8 so i am not sure who reported that record or where it came from because that is a big difference between 12-2 and 11-8

 

GO BIG BLUE!
