MrMom,

Dulins did have a talented 18U team this past summer. The above listed were the 07's on the 18U Blue team, except for McClain who played DD fall ball, there were many talented 06's that comprised the rest of the team. They won the Best Baseball World Series in Fort Myers at the Red Sox Complex.

We are relatively new to the area, having moved to TN from ATL and I'm not sure why there was an executive level decision made to not play PG events. We would have preferred to participate in some PG events and based on the teams history of appearances thought they would. We found out when we were given the schedule that the team would not be doing PG stuff. Our son had a great time this summer and enjoyed the coaches and his teammates and played very competitive teams, East Cobb Yankees, Chets Lemons Juice, Midland, Bayside Yankees, etc... Other personal issues, scheduling conflicts, early start of school and a death in our family made it impossible for him, our son, to go to a PG on his own.

Still Learning,
Congratulations to JJ signing with the Tigers. I know he's excited. Small world! I didn’t know your son played with Dulins and didn’t even realize you were in West Tennessee. Dulins is a great organization and turns out some pretty good ball players. I hope to see your son at UM or maybe a high school game this spring.

Fungo,

Thanks! Not only is he excited, but so are Mom and Dad. Close to Home

I wanted to extend a personal thanks to you as I have often enjoyed and learned from your posts. You have a gift for giving straight to the point advice as well as thought provoking, nostalgic and humerous postings.

It would be great to meet you at a ball field this spring. We have high hopes this year for a run at the State Championship by Collierville HS after finishing in 3rd the last two years. JJ was recovering from a minor injury and couldn't pitch in the TN State playoffs or TBCA showcase last HS spring season but had a great summer with Dulins. With Drew and JJ healthy they should be a strong 1 - 2, Left - Right pair, along with a large number of returning starters who where also juniors last year.

Still Learning's son is quite a pitcher and a great pick up for Coach Rock. I saw him several times this past summer and he can play with the best of them. The entire Dulin's team this past summer was one of their best and had a lot of talent, as is shown by the signing list. They played in front of enough scouts/recruiters this past summer to show off their talent. The schools who recruit this area saw them alot.
