trey meade from clintwood will be competing at the MLB "pitch hit and run" competition at pittsburgh next week. he qualified by winning local, sectional and a team championship in baltimore, and by having one of the top four scores in the nation. He also will get to shag balls at the homerun derby. GOOD LUCK TREY! CONGRATS!!!
If nothing else, that should be a heck of an experience
He actually had the top score in his age group in the nation.
if I was him I'd go to Virginia High, Science Hill, or D.B.
if i was him i would play at Clintwood and stay at your howetown team.

I agree if he has what it takes it doesn't matter if he plays in Clintwood or the tri-cities the scouts will find him. Just look at Jason Nixon from Coeburn and Chad Longworth from Wise. Although they didn't make it past the single a league they did have the scouts looking at them and at least went that far.
Or Gobble from Battle (Not a big school either)
He is still just a kid (is Trey even a teenager yet) lot of growing still to go as good as he may be in one sport or another there is no need to start speclizing in just one sport (LOL besides I have high hopes for him as a QB for the Greenwave in a few more years )
The scout that found these guys is from Wise, lives in Kingsport now. He gives local players a good look.
Wasn't Jerry Jordan from Coeburn a scout for the Phillies?
If memory serves, he's the man who got Calvin Talford in the farm system with the Phillies.
Jerry's the one I'm referring to. He's from Wise, he used to be with the Phillies. He has been with the Indians for several years now.
