Thanks SOSoftball. Always nice to see the #s.
We are handling our own very well in D4 come tournament time but definitely struggling in D3 outside of Burg.

Re: 2019 SOC 2
Thanks for the info SOSoftball & SoftballAlways. Ptown: Wasn't questioning "your" playing ability nor "your" coaching ability but...ok. The subject that you and I were discussing, well, that I was talking about, was the level of coaching vs the level of talent in our area. Th...

Re: 2019 SOC 2
I think we're all obviously pretty much in agreement that our area has plenty of talent, Ptown. Get a clue?
Your fervent misguided sense of coaching is stunning.
Here's a question for ya Ptown.
Outside of Burg, in SOC ll, with all of our talent, how many District Titles in the last 12 years?

Re: Top 10 players in SE Ohio...
Yes Ptown, that's exactly what I'm saying.
There are in fact other players other than Burg receiving scholarships to play softball but it's not because of the majority of high school coaches.

Re: Top 10 players in SE Ohio...
Totally agree that there are way better coaches out there vs the majority. Problem is, the schools/powers that be are not seeing that or just don't care. They are going to hire who they want for whatever reason. I'm throwing Webster/Messer out there because they seem to be the only ones in SOCII (ot...

Re: Top 10 players in SE Ohio...
So let me see if I got this right. It doesn't matter who or how good a coach is in high school if you as a high school athlete have no aspiration to play or decide to play less than 4 yrs in college? If I'm reading that right, that is exactly the mentality of the majority that I speak of and why Bur...

Spot on CaptainMorgan. Andy Messer got hired last year Manitou. He has good knowledge of today's game and is one of those that kept playing competitively himself through adult years. And... as far as saying that it doesn't matter who the High School Coach is based on the fact that the majority won't...

Totally agree in "area".
Coaching not even close in SOCII.
With exception of A.Messer - South Webster

Re: Top 10 players in SE Ohio...
Same here Ptown and going out on a limb here in saying that if you as one of the better talents in our area transfer to Burg from one of the majority schools, will definitely be better off.

Re: Top 10 players in SE Ohio...
Totally agree on the whole staying loyal thing but hey... lets face it, our better travel talent is getting bored and getting tired of the decisions to hire/keep High School coaches whos coaching abilities are no more than Jr. High level. It's not these coaches faults, they like to coach, they're of...

Re: 2019 SOC 2
You got it Redsfan. With the exception of South Webster hiring A. Messer, Burg and their powers that be are obviously the only ones that get the fact that you need a coach that lives in today's softball world. The game has evolved so much just in the last 10 years that the majority of our areas best...

Re: 2019 SOC 2
Depth & Coaching in my opinion is the key. I know how obvious that sounds but lets get real. The reason for the majority of the better talent in SOCII hasn't been from the "High School" coaches. A lot of the better talent in SOCII outweighs the coaching abilities of the majority of the...

Re: 2018 Season Stats
I agree that the conference awards don't really hold very much weight outside of their High School careers but I think everyone that has ever received them truly ejoyed it at the time and that's where these girls are now. They are just something the players can look back on and say "I accomplis...

Totally agree softball dad. As we all know the way it should be and the way that it's done are two different things.

Re: SOC II
Definitely can't argue with those 3 and Hughes from Oak Hill. Wolfenbarker also plays SS/2B as anyone of these girls can play anywhere. Last heard, all 4 of these girls have hit 7-10 HRs each while, I'm assuming, carrying a .500+ avg. Not to mention their RBIs. Would definitely like to know those #s...
