Why are private schools not allowed to participate in the state tournament??
I am interested in thoughts on private MIAA schools participating in the state tournament? If this seems unreasonable - why not at least have the public state champ and MIAA champion play a 3 game series at the end of the year? I cant imagine that...

Re: Q&A
"Is Johnny Whittleman your son or relative?" No Sir. Johnny played with my lil brother on the state champ team. Great kid! He has a beautiful swing and is a great motivator in the club house. I do not remember what his summer stuff was but he excelled in area code 04. Don't hold me to it but he may have been on that wood bat team that won the year before.

Re: How 'Bout District 5-5A & Those Mighty Texans !!!!
It is funny you say that about what the Martin players were saying in the handshake line. When Martin beat Cedar Hill in the district opener, the Martin pitcher that got the win said to the Cedar Hill head coach, "Welcome to district coach!" Wonder what was said Saturday? I attended all 3 games and I agree, Colleyville hits the ball 1-9 and that was the difference in the series. Not to mention when their #1 and 2 was on the mound it made a huge difference. Should be a great series against ...

After reading your response I am pretty sure you are not that guy and I apologize.
