In the Gold Division it could come down to the Downers South/Willowbrook series at the end of the year with Leyden close behind, and in the Silver I would take Downers North over OPRF, York, and LT.
I'm going to go with Leyden to win Gold conference this year ... of course, that's a little biased.
Silver I would also pick DGN.
As for best players...the two best I have faced when I was pitching were:
Phil Wunderlich - DGS (Louisville University)
Gil Claudio - OPRF (Arizona State University)
So far we haven't faced any overpowering pitching, but that's a matter of opinion.

this might sound biased also, considering i went to willowbrook, but curtis hudson is ridiculous, 26 innings pitched, 55 k's,ERA under 1.00, has about 5 major league scouts watching him this saturday
also phil wunderlich is amazing ive heard

I had heard Curtis Hudson was really good, but we faced him a week ago. He really wasn't that sharp, nor was he throwing hard at all.
I am also kind of worried about his arm. From the amount of throwing WB's coach was giving him, his arm must be made of rubber. On 3 days rest he threw 130 pitches against us and 2 days later was warming up to come in as a closer in another game against us.
You are right about Phil Wunderlich. He is one of the few people that I was worried to pitch to.

yes willowbrook coaches do push their pitchers too far, but this kid is for real. like i said he has major league scouts attending the game on saturday
I do hope he does well. I talked to him a little bit when I was playing first, he seemed like a pretty nice person.
Actually, almost all of the players on their team were really nice guys, especially the CF.
pitcher25, do you know the name of the 1st base coach who went to ISU?
