how will lake taylor look this year

i say lake tylor is favorite over churchland.

The eastern better hope for the "Luck of the Irish" The south eastern and beach are just simply loaded with D-1 talent this season.Lake Taylor will come out on top (in the eastern) and Churchland will battle the back side.Maury,Granby and the others will have few sparks to offer after the graduating class of last year.I am sure the kids will have fun playing for third and so on.Granby has some talent up the middle less the battery.Good luck this year to all!

Agree that Lake Taylor should come out on top.

According to several parents at Maury they have whole team of D1 prospects

Someone in the Eastern District really ought to step up to the plate and update the status of the District Teams. Some insight on the games would be nice.

Nice article on the back page of the Pilot's sport section on Churchland's Stephen Butt.

Anyone have some info on the Lake Taylor vs Norview game?

Maury 3 Granby 0 Warren threw 77 pitches thru 4 was brought back in in the 6th and threw 50 more for the win. Not alot of hitting on either side.

127 pitches in March?

This is the MO for Maury coaching staff. I had hoped that the new regime change would change this but guess not. Add pregame bullpen and warm ups between innings and the number tops 175.

I'm sure the great debate will ensue on pitch counts now.

Maybe I'll drop by the Maury dugout over the weekend and drop off a pitch counter for the adult in charge if there is one!

The Pilot is reporting the win the other way around, 3-0 Granby.

Va preps was there and has Maury winning.

Also, the OPon the game was a Granby fan.

the count could be off some i wasn't keeping the book. they did pull him after 4 and brought him back in the 6th with 1 out runners on 1st and second. I have not seen L.T. or Churchland but a real weak year in district so far.

It is really disappointing that someone from the Eastern District is not keeping us up with what is happening there this season. From what I can tell from the Virginian Pilot and this board, the following lists the district games which have been played and their scores, as well as the upcoming week's schedule and the district standings. It appears that Churchland is undefeated?

4-12 Granby 15 Norview 4

According to the newspaper, Churchland 11, Maury 2 yesterday with Jeffrey Younkins hitting a home run. I believe that keeps Churchland undefeated.

Churchland easily handled Maury.Final score 12 to 2 and 14 ks,not a good Show for Maury.Pitcher(#1 Maury) started with some side arm/over hand thing,thought I was back at little league.Harder and harder for eastern to field competitive games with less available player pool each year.Pitcher for Churchland # 11(WVA) had 14Ks on the day and never really pressed.Quality fast ball and curve ball repeatedly for strikes.He may have had to look over his shoulder once.Umpire called very good game.Both Maury and Churchland represented selves well,Maury pitcher(#3) hit batter and closed day by shaking hands instead of promoting drama.Get'm next time!

wow, nomad.

good job talking up ur son and talking down the starting pitcher for Maury. i know it is your opinion and everything but i suppose you have your reasons for calling him a little leaguer

Not at all,I am not calling anyone a little league-r.I am calling into question the approach when this game was a important one for Maury.This young man has not pitched since little league on a competitive basis and I felt that this was not a well thought out direction to take,if you are trying to beat the number one team and then to allow the welfare of the game to be in-trusted to a style of pitching that simply made no since.Think about it!The fact that #3 went to shake the hands of a struck player represents the quality of the program,players and mind set.This and or these posts are not personal only a simple reply to the question and that is "could someone from the eastern comment"well....Your attempt to make the post ugly is your approach not mine so simply comment on game or not.

ok.

cool i get it. coach was diberately starting the little leaguer in an effort to lose the game. high school coaches have a nasty habit of trying to lose games and not asking for the opinions of daddys before the big game.

he probably had a wager on the game. see if the coach is now driving an Escalade to practice.

Obviously got your attention because you are certainly show-ing your self.No sir I do not think a coach would deliberately do such a thing,but I do believe bad decisions can cost games whether it is by the Coach or the player.You still are locked into this personal thing and I can't get you away from the fact that I still stress to you all these players are within and ounce of each other and all are fine players.I simply think it was a mistake to promote this approach on this day.You simply care what the gallery thinks of the decision making process of the coaches.People enjoy making it personal because that helps comfort the the decision making process good or bad,have a nice day and look forward to seeing you"40 year old fat guy".Certainly,if you want to discuss more I am happy to sadly continue.Take a big breathe and I will return to the gallery,oh and I do not want to keep the book I'll leave that to the concerned volunteers.

Nomadad Do you know who they threw in the first meeting. Other than Churchland No one in district can hit a #1 starter and there are only 3 of those in district.

Just wondering about first game that was close till the end. If they didn't throw Warren they weren't putting otu thier best. Maybe they don't want Churchland to see him until they need too.

Since Maury fans seem to be on the board, could one of you advise whether the April 8 game of Maury v Norview was played and, if so, what the score was so that I can update scores and standings in this thread? I did add the scores above from yesterday's games.

Game was not played,apparently postponed by agreement.New date not mentioned yet.

According to the Pilot, Wilson defeated Granby on Thursday, 10-9.
