Region Rankings

In the San Antonio area, region 4 you have Reagan,
Smithson Valley and Macarthur. From Corpus you have King, Ray and Carroll all have great baseball programs. It will be interesting to see who will
represent this region in 2007.

SV and Reagan will both be strong this year. SV may not have a super star (e.g. Volz) this year, but they have a really solid and talented group of seniors and juniors. Will be some great baseball to watch when those two meet.

Could be wrong, but I don't think Mac will get it done.

Corpus will be a real dogfight again, even without Moody. ctiger's team should do well again. He sure drew a tough district...

Mcarthur has a pretty good #1 AND #2 in their pitching rotation. Depends on if they can get some run support. If their bats come around they will be tough.

Their No. 1 is really not much better as a senior than he was as a freshman. Kind of strange. From what I have heard, he had somewhat of a rough year last year. Is MG their No. 2?

With Rosfeld (sp?) and Morrow, SV will have two solid starters.

Garza probaly should be the #1 and true Daniels has not developed and become the dominant pitcher he should be, however he can still be tough.

Morrow and Wagliardo will be the pitchers for SV, Rosfeld will probably be limited to tournaments.
Juniors Woodchick, Jahns and Hamilton will also see some time on the mound.

Is the younger Pawalek going to see the field for varsity?

I don't think he will see alot of time other than in tournament play.

District 15-5A,
1. Round Rock- Lost to Klein Collins in the Regional Quarter Finals in '06. Returning 7 starters, along with 6 that recieved all district honors. 14 Returning Seniors. Young talent including 6'6 Lefty pitcher Rick Hepworth (JR). Outstanding Seniors include Robbie Kilcrease (LP) (Texas Tech) finished last season with under 1.00 ERA, Lee Johnson (RP\1b)(University of Texas), Steven Peterson (LP 1b OF) (Dallas Baptist),Ryan Hutson (SS) (Sam Houston State), Matt Pruitt (OF), Jeremy Clouse (C, 3B).
I cant forget to mention the athlete in sophomore Josh Elander (C, OF).

2. Georgetown- Lost in the first or second round in '06. Much talent on this Squad including Texas commit Runey Davis.

3. Pflugerville- Very good talent, lost to Klein Collins in a one game shootout in '06.

4. Stony Point- I am not very familiar with the squad this year, lost to RR in '06 in a win it or go home District Finale.

I beleive these 4 teams will be the Playoff rep's in '07 for this very competitive district.

I didn't know Lee Johnson had signed with Texas. I don't recall seeing his name on the website for the early signing period.

Georgetown lost in the second round to The Woodlands.

I beleive he got an extremely small offer. It's a joke around the fieldhouse "Oh look at texas over there" because of how small his offer was.

and you're right, i looked at the website after i talked with him about it.. and i didnt see him on there either.

RBI Baller - Do you play for one of the RR schools? (RR,Westwood, SP, or McNeil)?

i play for round rock. The varsity is soo stacked. Coach Carter talked with me and i'm going to pitch on JV..although i will be on the varsity roster. i wouldnt step a foot on the field with all those seniors ahead of me.

so what is your projected success of round rock this year

I think we'll do very good. It's very competitive during the baseball period.. and we've got a lot of dedicated guys. Many of the Juniors are trying to win starting spots.. therefore they've basically been living in the cages. We've got some talent.. and I'm very excited to see what goes down this spring. We have 16 returning players. 14 Seniors. I have a feeling that it's going to be this year or two years from now that we go really far. Our '08 class is a bit weak, myself being in the '08 crew barely made the squad. I beleive around 6 '08s got cut before the christmas break. We have around 7-10 pitchers. All very good. Including a 6'6 lefty Junior. The coaches keep stressing to us that we have the spotlight shining on us and we need to run with the oppurtunity.

Also, seeing that the seniors this year, which were juniors last year, had 7 out of the 9 starters playing in the playoffs, went three rounds deep to lose to KC. I cant begin to imagine, IF we play to our potential, how far we will go..time will only tell. It's baseball, so anything can happen.

Round Rock
RR Stony Point
Georgetown
Pflugerville

RR Westwood

RBI Baller - We are in GT - we will see you soon. First scrimmage is in 20 days - not that I'm counting or anything!

awesome! I figured ya'll were from the picture. georgetown has some talent. i was suprised to not see them in the top 25 poll. Georgetown took it to the Rock last season.. but we'll see this year!

Anyone know anything about East Central High School in San Antonio?

nope, i havent heard anything about that school.

E. Central usually has a solid program. Over the last several years, it hasn't been a great one, though.

Only two Region 4 teams are in the Top 25, SA Reagan and Sharyland, if one of them doesn't make it to Round Rock who are the others team we should be watching? Westlake , Smithson Valley of any of the CC schools?

SV should be very good, right there with SA Reagan. CC Carroll will also be good, as probably will Ray & King.

Has anyone heard anything about Austin Bowie?
I think they used to have some decent teams.

they have a very good coach and they should be in the hunt every year.
I think they will be very young and inexperienced this year.

Ctiger- It must be nice without Moody to fend with this year..

62tiger -

Another region 2 team to watch is going to be Tomball. You always have a chance with an All-American on the hill (Drake Britton, Texas A & M). Their #2 will most likely be David Rhoads, a signee of Va. Tech to go behind the dish. He could be a D1 pitcher IMO.

I guess so.
we have beaten them before in the play-offs so I will miss having that kind of fun in front of 5500. But they are a quality program that we enjoy playing. But, yes it is nice not having to worry about them.

Wow glad to see some Austin area talk. I was beginning to think this was a forum exclusive to North Texas. We have two new schools in our district. San Marcos and Seguin. The Centex tournament is going to be a very telling outing for many schools.

Darn near...

Texas is so big, maybe we need to split up the forums
by region.

Spring,

My son played with Rhodes for 3 years and Drake for 2. They will definitly be in every game. Rhodes is a great kid with a lot of potential.

Out of Region II, look out for Round Rock.... They are stacked!!!

Westlake Dad, we are really looking forward to the Centex Tournament. We had a blast last year! There will be some good competition in it this year with The Woodlands making their way out there. We (Spring) have our work cut out for us if we want to win. We play both The Woodlands AND Round Rock.

H5AB - We play Round Rock this year in the Centex Tournament. Heard they are loaded down with seniors and a very solid ballclub all the way around.

We play a total of 4 of the top 15 texas teams this year in Round Rock, The Woodlands, KC and Tomball.

good luck

i graduated from spring back in 1985.
one of your coaches played with me that year, i think

Westlake Dad- San Marcos and Seguin should be an interesting addition to your district...
Quite frankly, I'm a little surprised that they were put up with Austin schools..
