Both Sinnen boys? Who does Cowan play for? I have heard Jarvis is POY. I am assuming Faison as SS or utility?

No just one Sinnen as Pitcher. Faison I am not sure as SS or Utility and Cowan was 3rd base (Salem)

Congrats to all the kids for being selected-

A couple things I would like to address in the selection process as All Beach players are chosen. I hope that they consider Defense (Errors) when selecting all beach players. I watched a few games in which an infielder made at least 7 errors in two games and now is an all district player. I think Batting Average is very important but Errors should certainly offset their overall assessment. Also feel like the Beach needs to pay a little money and have a universal stat keeper. I am not saying anyone’s integrity is at question however it would be better keep things honest. Also, if the Worthy kid from Kellam is not the POY then it would be crazy!! The kid has been a monster at the plate and is probably leading the State in HomeRuns or very close.

Universal stat keeper? hmmmmm. I also am some what perplexed as to why Worthly didn't get POY but have been told by reliable sources that Jarvis had a monster year at bat and on the mound. As for infielder with 7 errors, well I don't know the Cowan kid and have seenthe Fason kid many times for last 4 years, he's a stud don't know his stats but he had maybe 3-4 erros in the 7-8 games I saw him this year

I can tell you the Cowan kid didn't make 7 errors in two games either. someone always
disagrees with selections but bball1979 didn't name anyone and we don't know about 1st or 2nd base. It's never good to bring up a kids name with something negative in here. And just because someone gave a number on the internet, doesn't make it true. Trust me, I'm a french model and starting pitcher for the Yankees.

I couldn't say one way or another since I have never had the opportunity to participate or even observe these sacred proceedings. I would submit that great defensive ability has won out when offensive numbers were close on similar players. I'll take a great glove and .350 over an average glove and .400. I can scrape the runs if you can keep them off the board.

I haven't a clue as to had had a year worthy of POY consideration, but POY (just like all the other All-District awards) are individual honors... I don't think we should disqualify a player for consideration because his team wasn't tops in the District. Besides, in the case of the Beach District, there was Kellam and then a bunch of teams all nearly equal. Are you saying only a Kellam player should be considered for POY?

According to 757teamz, here is the complete listing:

Cole Jarvis is a wonderful story. Cole started at catcher for Cox his sophmore season. I understand for physical reasons he was unable to continue catching. Working hard to stay on the field he worked to develop as a pitcher. Last season the falcon pitching rotation was junior McCabe the beach POY, Curran another junior, and soph Bay. Essentially the falcon roation for 13 was set. Unfortunately only Curran was available to pitch this season, thus opening the door for Jarvis. Cole made the best of the situation, ultimately proving that his desire,hardwork, sportsmanship paid off for him and for his team. Remarkable change in 2 years from a catcher that was mostly Dh'ed for to a top pitcher and hitter. With that and an exceptional year on the field Cole is well qualified to be the POY. Congrats Mr. Jarvis!

Understandibly every year there are players that should have been represented that were left off the list. I agree with Pilot, Bodie was impressive in about every game I saw FC play. He seemed to be the consistent leader of the team and was effective on the bump and at the plate. So for what it's worth congrats to Bodie for an oustanding season.

So lightning do you agree that Bodie is a "good player" or was that a back handed compliment? Can you please clarify? And possibly help us with how the comment about pitching in almost every game matters? doesnt the strikeout statistic need to be related to innings pitched not games appeared in. the coach decides how to manage pitchers not the player. So bodie did what he was asked to do, pitched some innings in a bunch of games and that is something anyone could of done, not so sure i agree with that.
