Playing a region tournament on a baseball field that the drop from home to pitching mound is 6-13 inches, a mound that isn’t regulation, and a field that probably drops 6/8 foot it borderline criminal

Floyd Counth can’t get out of its own way

And the pitchers mound is squared off not round

NFHS mentions specifically that the “table” of the pitching mound forms a rectangle. If you look at the verbiage and specs for the mound, it’s designed the way NFHS requires it. As for the height of it, I’m not sure. It’s definitely taller than any other mound but these were outside contractors hired to build this. You don’t hear me say this often but this is one thing that Floyd County really didn’t have a hand in.

You are correct in the “table” part.


A level playing service and a mind are pretty easy to define. It’s in the rules. Floyd county has the 2 most extreme mounds in the region.

Floyd Central is the lowest and PBurg is the highest. On one side.

Lawrence, Paintsville, Pikeville, Johnson Central, Belfry, Floyd Central and Pikeville all have better fields that PBurg.
