whats going on in the southeastern district

bsbll04,
I think you've hit the nail on the head. Although its early in the season there seems to be a lot of parity in the Southeastern district this year. The usual suspects (GB, WB, Hickory, IR & DC) will be in contention, but OS, Lakeland & NR seemed improved over last year. So it may be a dog fight for all teams in S/E this year.

how did gb lose to indian river last week? did gb leave their A game at home or do they not look that great this year or is indian river that good of a ball club this year

Never under-estamate Indian River. Coach West has an inherent ability to get the most out of the talent he has.

Braves blew a 5-0 lead vs Hickory at home last night as the Hawks scored 3 in the 7th to cap a big comeback. For some reason, Hickory coach Gedro's name NEVER comes up whatsoever on this site. Would seem he had the upper hand on IR coach West last night, with skillful maneuvering after Hawks starter didn't get out of the first inning. Not sure how the Southeastern will shake up as yet, but we should find out soon enough.

Philler,
I'll run with the ball on this one. I think that Coach Gedro doesn't receive a lot of respect from some, because of the amount of talent that has come through his program without a district, regional or state title. Although his style of coaching is different than some coaches & like all parents (who've never made a mistake on the other side of the fence) I sometimes disagree with some moves. I can truly say that he was very good to both of my sons that played for him & that's all I as a parent could ask for.

As far as the IR vs. Hickory thing. Sometimes some teams just have other teams number. Look at the opposite effect that GB has on Hickory. Don't worry about IR too much Coach West's kids will battle all year & when the dust settles will probably be right in the mix for the district championship.

Anyone know the standings and records in the SE District? Thanks.

before today's games:
(these are only district games)

OS 3-0
WB 2-1
GB 2-1
Hic 2-1
DC 1-2
IR 1-2
Lake 1-2
NR 0-3

some of tuesday scores: hickory over nr 15-5 and deep creek over oscar smith 4-2

With the top four advancing to the district tournament in the Southeastern, can anyone tell me who they are right now? GB and WB at the top (and playing this afternoon as I understand)?

as of right now in the district its
1.Great Bridge
2.Western Branch
3.Hickory
T4.Oscar Smith
T4.Nansemond River
T4.Lakeland
T4.Deep Creek
As you can see the 4th place spot is up for grabs right now, Oscar Smith plays at Nansemond River tomorrow, that will be one deciding factor for a 4th place spot in this part of the season
