I am a little bias because my son plays on the Bowling Green/Warren County team but they have a really good team. Most of the players on the team played at Bowling Green or Greenwood High Schools this past year. They have a very strong pitching staff and can rope the ball. By the way, Bowling Green was one of the few teams that beat PRP (State Champs) this year. If we both win our first two game we would play Belfry in the semifinals. Good luck to Belfry getting by Lewis County in the first game. Thats a tough draw.

Not quite the entire team as advertised. Thats probably a break for the rest of us. Good luck to everyone I'm on my way to London.

Just going on what I had heard. So tell me this.
How can a team that lost all but three players be the front runner for the WS (As advertised in another thread)? :confused:

I don't care how good of a Little League team you were. It is a real BIG transition from there to the next level. One or two maybe can. But, not an entire team. If that is the case. I will go with Belfry in this one.

**PHS95** · 07-19-2008, 09:41 AM

I'll take Belfry in this one also.... Those boys have been playing too well offensively and defensively! Coach has them ready for this game!

Actually was winning 3-1 and went down 4-3 and came back ....... It was VERY hot today and if played again..... well... lets just say this is the worst game the boys have ever played throughout the entire tourney. They weren't on their game. Hopefully, they will come back on Monday and take care of business. Either way, they have done excellent this all-star season and we are very, very proud of them!! Thanks for the earlier vote of confidence also.... We appreciate it!!!

No problem. I know the feeling though. We got beat by a total of 3 runs down there last year. We knew we had the best team. We just couldn't hit the stinking thing and we only had 3 errors.

I thought Jackson Co beat them 2-0, and Oldam Co. beat them like 7-8 or somthing like that

So what does this mean. Belfry playes Laurel tommrow in the finals? or what?

**PHS95** · 07-21-2008, 12:23 AM

No, still in double elimination tournament.

coach-4-life · 07-21-2008, 01:13 AM

If belfry playes the way they can they will come out on top ,They are the best team there

Ohh. I thought it was pool play my bad.

**PHS95** · 07-21-2008, 08:39 AM

There are only six teams, so it is set up as a double elimination. Everything has now been pushed back a day because of a huge weather delay last night. South Oldham and Lewis County play tonight at 5:30 The loser of that game will face Warren County tomorrow and Belfry will play North Laurel.

I like the double elimination better. There were only 6 teams in it last season and they made us play pool play. Which is really kinda the same. You get two games for sure.

I say this with respect

I don't know i'd say Lewis CO. will be hard to stop now. how good are the other teams?

I know Belfry is pretty good and just had a bad game. Should have won thier first game but that is the grand ole game of baseball. good luck

**PHS95** · 07-21-2008, 11:19 AM

Lewis County is good, but Belfry, after watching the game, is the better team.... like you said, just a bad game!
