Can Winisquam repeat? When Cote pitches they will win, but what about thier #2 and #3.
Is Somersworth the odds on favorite to take the title? Strong juniors returning with big bats.
Hopkinton may have the best 1, 2, 3, starting rotation but can they provide the run support?
Bow moves down to DIII, what will they bring to the dance?
Campbell is always strong, but did they graduate to much experience to be a factor in 2011?
Now that the regular season has ended, here is my try to answer the questions above.
Winisquam - When Cote pitches, they win. Their first playoff round will be a test for them.
Somersworth - Very very strong, but Hopkinton had them against the ropes before Cote dusted them. Can they make it to the finals?
Hopkinton - C- on the season. One winning pitcher and bats have just come to life. Which team will show up for the playoffs is anyones guess?
Bow - much better team than their record indicates. All season I kept waiting for the big upset. Just never came.
Campbell - Just as I said, always strong. These grown up Grizzles are tough!
My big miss was Berlin. I love these guys! They practice in the snow half the season and still play solid baseball! My sentimental favorites for sure.
Good luck to all the teams and the great kids that make high school baseball soooooooo much fun to watch.
Note to parents and fans; its just game and these are still kids. Lets teach by example and show sportsmanship in victory or defeat.
