Usually I agree with most of your posts, but JC had way more than one pitcher in '07 . I'll agree that their offense was not strong and the defense struggled at times, but you dont get to Applebees with only one pitcher. I also thought that Clark Co. was pretty good that year. They finished with a 33-6 record with 2 of those losses coming in the semi state to Dunbar. They also beat Dunbar in that series and lost one game by only 2-0. They did not play a killer schedule but it certainly wasn't horrible. They did beat Harrison Co. twice that year. May not have been one of Harrisons strongest teams of the decade, but Harrison is still Harrison.Your right about them not having an overall dominating pitching rotation but they got the job done. I also thought that Evan Bennett, Josh Woods and Jordan Barker were all pretty good hitters. Actually I thought that Bennett might have been one of the better hitters that I saw all that year. All 3 play college baseball. Bennett at Morehead and Barker and Woods at Cumberland. Barker was also a very good catcher. It took eventual state champion Dunbar all 3 games to knock them out of the sectional tournament. Dunbar wore them out in the 3rd game but the first two games were real battles.I think you can say that Clark was terrible in '08, but they were good in '07.

Haha, my bad on the one pitcher comment I forgot what year i was talking about, haha! Anyhow, now for the record I will definetely agree with you on Bennett and Barker, but I don't know about Woods. I know he went to college and played but he didn't have a dominant season that year. Barker should have gotten a lot more credit than what he did get, and Bennett was a great pitcher as well when they used him. However, Clark probably didn't pitch him in that game anyhow. I have on problem adding Clark to the list of tough teams for that year, but think about what were arguing? If you add them plus Johnson Central, that is still only 3 teams by adding those two, so I still don't think it's worth mentioning. However, I do stand corrected. Nice to see you out stirring up trouble again, I was worried. haha!!
