Son's senior year (2012) I think there were 10 team HR's. Seven by one player (5 tool player - was drafted - threw 95), two by my son and one by one other player. Son had 4 total for his HS career (one a grand slam). Home field was 305' down the line, 365' CF.

In college, he had 8 total. Two his freshman year (JuCo), none his sophomore year (JuCo) and 6 his junior year (D2). However he made up for no HR's his sophomore year by hitting 27 doubles (broke the school record) which got him noticed by the D2 RC. Both college fields were about the same - 335' down the line and 400' to CF with deep alley ways.
