District 8-5A

Nick Lee at Lamar, great splitter. Also can play a middle infield spot or outfield.

Dad is a heck of a photographer.

Braswell will no longer be at Bowie. He is moving to East Texas and he will be starting school in Troup in a couple of weeks. But he is a Jr.

I also think Hill from Martin is only a Jr. if it is the Hill I'm thinking of. 5S dad can answer that for sure though.

Also add Griffin to that list from Martin. Gaining more experience every day after not pitching until recently, and has the physical tools.

Stuckey --> Bowie, Jr. - summer ball w/Monarchs

Braswell -->Bowie, Jr. - summer ball w/Mustangs but moving to Troup.

Lee -->Lamar, Jr. - summer ball w/Arl. Heat I think.

Walker -->Lamar, Jr. - summer ball w/Arl. Heat I think.

Blanton -->Sam Houston, Sr. - summer ball w/Monarchs

Rogers -->Duncanville, Sr. - don't know

Johnson -->Lamar, Jr. - summer ball w/ Dallas Gaints

Hill -->Martin, Jr. - summer ball w/Redhawks

Glenn -->Martin, Sr. - summer ball w/Arl. A's

Mizell --> Martin, Jr. - summer ball w/Monarchs

Chovanec --> Martin, Jr. - summer ball w/Mustangs

Also from Martin

Griffin --> Martin, Jr. - summer ball w/Mustangs

Zielinski --> Martin Sr. - summer ball w/Arl. A's

Nephew --> Martin Sr. - summer ball w/Arl. A's

Winter --> Martin Jr. - summer ball w/Redhawks

Jared Rogers- Summer team is Arlington A's.
His mom posts on here and I can give your monikar if you would like to PM her.

Troup was in the 2006 2A State playoffs -- went 22 and 6 for the season!

(Before I was a Dallas Tiger I was a Troup Tiger )

It seems like Martin is loaded with pitching. Will all of the guys listed actually get pitching time? If not, who do you think will get the most and least? Of what I've heard, the Seniors get priority - so how will all of the Juniors get their reps in?

Big it does look as if Coach Culbertson does has a problem with so many pitchers but what a good problem that is to have.

I see your new here I'd like to welcome you to HSBB Web and can you tell us a little about yourself?

I have a Junior @ Coppell and I know they have played Martin in playoff series in the past. My son has played against some of the Matin guys in the past. In the past, if Coppell/MArtin meet in the playoffs, the winner seems to advance deep into the tournament - but shy of Round Rock

As a somewhat casual observer and now a very casual observer, Martin is loaded in pitching now and has been for several years and will be for several more. I am unsure of the seniors, but I know Chevonic, Griffin, and Hill will some day be a SOLID rotation if Culbertson uses them properly, which is another issue itself. I am unsure of where Mizell and Winter will fit in the mix, but rest assured they should be in the mix. I think some of those kids need to move to another AISD school to see more action. I guess that is what summer ball is about right?

Move for athletic purposes???? Does that actually happen????

I'm sure theres not more than 5 or 6 hundred across the state, and for a state this big thats not bad.

PD,

The older I get, the funnier that gets, if you know what I mean!! We all have our suspicions right???

We played in a premier tournament earlier in the summer @ UTA. We played the game behind the Monarchs on that Sunday morning. If Mizell is left-handed, he started against the 17 yr old Mustang team - I lost track of how far he went in the game - the last I looked he was still throwing in the 5th - he only gave up 2 runs and the Monarchs won 7-2. Stuckey pitched the next game against 17 yr old Columbia Angels and dominated the entire game. I believe Monarchs won 6-1. He's a really good pitcher that will have success at the next level.

Rogers graduated from Duncanville. Is heading to Navarro this fall. Played with the much maligned Arlington A's 18U Premier team. Had a blast with his team and performed well.

Are you recruiting for train BW?

Imagine that. Moderators don't have your vision. You are wise beyond your years oh Great One.

I think Coppell is looking to add another pitcher next year!
