Oscar Smith has a good coach now and has really turned this program around.

I agree. When the coach took over OS couldn't get out of its own way. They spent a couple of years building and became competitive several years back. Despite the occasional win over traditional baseball powers they have not been able to advance the next step and get on the level of WB or GF in their current conference.

I believe the athletes are there and when they make the break through and start to draw even more widely they will be a real force to be reckoned with. The 3rd string halfback on the football team might make a killer Leadoff and Centerfielder. Just pulling 3 or 4 kids off of football into baseball might make them a real factor in baseball. They have to start getting them in 8th and 9th grade and that is why the breakthrough is so important. Who knows you may start getting the younger brothers of really good players like you do at places like GB, WB and Hickory among others.
