That was a reach, but I will let it go because you have been helpful today...
Collikar
Colleyville has a deep team....not sure who will earn the spots...they have many seniors 4 juniors 0 sophmores this year. Players and Coaches seem very focused and driven. Can't wait to see your stud lefty on the mound....yea...sandbagger.
Not sure who will take 5-5A but hope they give the south something to remember!

Paw,
Just be sure to come fully armoured. It's anybody's guess where the ball's gonna go.
Remember this summer? 0-5. LOL

Don't it p i s s you off?
But, you can be d a m n sure the FB team has matching panties.

Complete with lace...
Keller plays Flower Mound Marcus on Tuesday at Keller. The real deal starts on Thursday at the Baylor Classic.
Grapvine has a sleeper pitcher noone knows about! I've seen MC pitch for his summer team and he is a beast!! 
Haltom put a Soph on the mound last night against Azle -
Chase Underhill (15)- complete game
HHS 3
AHS 1

Richland put a freshman on the hill ( Cody King ) against Azle,winning 9-1, only giving up 4 hits. 
Northwest put two Sophomores (Will Poythress and Cody Cunningham) on the mound and won against Keller Central(10-2) and Birdville Hawks (6-3).
Did any can't-miss 8th graders make their varsity debut this weekend?
We'll handle talk in 5-5a and you keep it up North!!There is pretty good baseball in NE Tarrant worth talking about. It is alright to talk about baseball other than 9-4a,7-5a, Plano,or wherever you're from isn't it??? 
WOW...you go LDin..If PD wasn't one of my favorite Old Timers I'd jump on the train (no pun intended) too!
There are a number of good frosh/sophs playing V in 5-5A and elsewhare. If they weren't there the vets would not be challenged, as they have already "won" their spots against the current competitive pool. The new blood pushes the vets to continue to improve. Don't be araid to acknowledge them.

Ok, I'm guilty of being a smart arse.....of course there's good baseball in NE Tarrant county. 9-4A, 7-5A? Huh? My poke was at another thread.....not this one.....I'll try to contribute intellijetly.

C21,how you guys looking in Grapevine? You must know by now who this is from my earlier post about MC pitching!
PD, Thanks for not taking offense to the young guns calling you out.
LDin..., GHS has struggled at the one place I thought they'd excel...hitting (shows you what I know about hs baseball.)
Expected the pitching to be OK (and it is,) but the big surprise to me is D. They don't throw the ball around as much as last year it seems. Making all (most) of the routine plays, etc.
It seems that Tychos post (at the top of page 3) is dead on...but you might also want to throw Keller Central in that mix after this weekend.
I have a hunch who you are LDinTheGap, but PM me so I can be sure.

Agree, Central certainly played well this weekend. I would include them as a team in the playoff mix in 5-5A. That makes 6 teams in the mix for 4 spots...will be a fun league.
So....tychco....we can't necessarily pitch our 70mpg, left-handed, one-armed freshman against Keller Central OR JNW this weekend???
(our one-armed pitcher is a senior....and right-handed)

Looks to me like you will need a stud arm against Keller Central this weekend. Northwest was not one of the 6 teams mentioned in the mix, so whatever freshman arm you have in the mix will do fine against them 
.
You will need JE against the Martin Machine

JE may not pitch this weekend -- our first district game is the following Tuesday.
WOW, district already?
Well, our little guys won't be much of a measure against PESH, so be easy on us. I look forward to seeing you Saturday.

Cobra21, I sent you a PM
I'm not sure if I got this right or not, CV Heritage and Grapevine wins their respective tournaments, SL Carrol is impressive in Austin and at Mid Cities Classic including 11-1 win over Pascal, Keller dominates in some games, Northwest has great 7-2 win against a solid Plano East team plus others, Richland gets run rule wins including 14-1 win over a solid Allen team and 7-2 win over Ft. Worth area pre-season top 10 L. D. Bell squad, Haltom gets 3rd at the Newman Smith/TCA tournament and Keller Central has had a few "feather in the cap" wins.
With these 8 teams, no district game will be a pushover win. For those who have played these 5-5A teams, I'd like comment regarding the level of play/talent on these teams as most predict a 4-team district (SL Carrol, Keller, Grapevine and CV Heritage) and I don't see it that way.

Grapevine wins the Midland Tournament of Champions. The team went 5-0. The pitching gave up a total of 5 runs in 5 games. Adam Jahner, Drew Boehmer, Cameron White, Ethan Davis, and Scott Slusher were named to the All-Tournament team.
That, coupled with CHHS success, Keller,Southlake,Northwest, Central, and Richland all playing well, has to make 5-5A, one of the best places to watch High School baseball.

Shhhh!
The season is very young, but it appears that a very solid team (or two or three) will not be making a trip across town in bi-district at the end of the season....Yikes
It also seems that whoever does get there will be battle tested!
