Gate City and Twin Springs went at it yesterday at about 4:30
How did it turn out? I heard TS is going to give CW and TW a run for their money this year. How did GC look. How many do they have out? Was Coach Carter there?
Gate City won 12-0. coach carter wasn't there defensively gate city was solid, and they hit the ball pretty well.
ts will have to do some major major improvements to compete...
Sounds like GC will be alright. Are they playing at Hunter Wright this year?

this year? i'll believe that only when i see it first.
Heard GC will not be playing at HW in Kspt.
GC will be pretty good this year, they have two good pitchers back in pope and esteep, salyer and eldrige are back in the field and dean and pope are back at the plate
Gate City only had 3 hits that were legit. Estepp hit one to right that was pretty good. Other than that the rest should have been caught and would have if they were playing a good team. I believe the team has problems with position assignment and they look like they are just going through the motions.
I don't think Coach Carter will be back this year.
After yesterday I think the LPD will look like this:
1. Kelly
2. Burton or PV
4. Gate City
5. Coeburn
6. Clintwood
7. Pound
8. Appy
Was someone out of position? Who? Does GC have any basketball players that are going to play baseball?
GC has several baseball starters that are currently involved in basketball at the moment. Once they get to the team, I'm sure they will be fine.
How can you think that way after the maiming that gate city put on burton and powell valley last year. I mean my freaking god, gate city had 12 errors, in one game mind you, and still beat burton. Do you remeber a little five inning affair called gate city vs powell valley? We will be starting basically the same team because all the postions that had been lost have been filled with good fundimentally sound players on both sides of the filled, they can hit and play.
The district once, this year, will come down to Coeburn and Kelly. Coeburn has gotten a lot better and Kelly has the same team that they took to state last year, with teh exception of K. Bentley. So sorry GC your last year in b-ball, in the LPD, you won't win teh Regular Season Chmpionship.
Coeburn has never beat us in baseball...not once last year we played them back to back we used half our bench and stil beat them. Coburn has one player (pate) and all he can do is hit opposite feild. Ive never seen a fast ball from Coeburn VA that was over 80 MPH.
Ok man I ain't gonna argue about it i guess we will see when it comes to the game.
And BTW (Pate gratuated) his little brother plays now.
So when they play this year we will see who comes out on top. And honestly u guys don't have anyone eithe.
And teh PV game last year was a fluke if you remeber correctly it shocked everyone in the LPD and prolly the region. [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/getsmile.tmp007816300.gif[/img]
We dont have anybody(Buck Eldredge, all state. Tanner Dean, batting average near .500. Jordan Estepp, Will record at least 7 K's against coeburn, Jamie Hackney, Nuff' said. Jon Pope can flat out kill a baseball. Cody Salyers, has played on varsity since a freshman. ) It sounds like coeburns the one with no one. Doesn't look like they'll be filling up that empty state championship sign anytime soon.
We beat powell vally by 10 runs 2 times. not a fluke...just not...thats just dumb.
F7(its spell check BeNjAmIn)
ok I can't sit here and belive you on all this crap that you are feeding me basically because you have no idea what you are talking about. coeburn has won state once and has lost by a horrible third call strike in another state CHAMPIONSHIP GAME. So before you start to talk about filling up state signs check your facts.
And oh yea btw if you think that you all are gonna win state you are wrong. I will be shocked if you guys win the district or make it out of regions. It is going to be a tough Region this year and i don't think that you all have the guns. For that matter Coeburn won't go either fo the simple fact that they don't have any pitching this year.
Oh yea and vally is spelled VALLEY! [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/getsmile.tmp007816300.gif[/img] YAY!!!!!!!!
One thing for sure whoever wins Region this year it will be a much tougher road starting next season with Va high and Battle droping
I can take you right to the empty state championship sign on the side of there stands at the baseball field, its on the end were the away dugout is.
Why would anyone make up stats like that? We don't have an inferiority complex.
[img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/getsmile.tmp007816300.gif[/img] Your terrible at everything you do. Grats.
Hackney may not even play this year. He didn't play at all last year so no guarentee there.
Eldridge is legit, I will give you that.
Dean only DH's.
The Riner boy in right field is pretty steady when given a chance.
Your best all around player is Estepp and he only pitches and plays some at third.
You may be able to play in the district with the middle of the pack but beyond that you will need at least 3 or 4 pitchers to contend.
You lost Rogers at 3rd, Woods at 2nd, and all around player Castle from the infield. Your JV 1st baseman isn't playing this year and neither is your JV 3rd baseman, both of whom would have moved up. You also lost your lefty pitcher in Logan McDavid. Sounds like you have a lot of holes to fill.
I think I pretty much got it right in my post above.
1. Kelly
2-3 Burton - PV
4-8 Everyone else
Surprise me..........prove me wrong.........go out and work hard every day trying to get better. Good Luck!
Your wrong.
What happened to McDavid?
I think he just quit, im not sure though i may be wong, but i think that.

where will they be playing if not at hunter wright?
There playing at HW.

Does anyone know how Coach Shannon Carter is doing? Who will be the head coach this year at GCHS? [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]
what is wrong with him???
Heard Coach Carter is still not doing well.....they are not sure what is wrong with him as of Tuesday is the talk.....I first heard the Mike Castle was going to be the coach this year...but then I heard last night that they named Robbie Perry head coach....I fill sorry for the boys....good luck!!
Oh my god, please say they didn't make Robbie Perry or Castle the Head Coach. They can tear down in an instance what Shannon and Coach Rogers have built. If anything, they need let Coach Rogers take it back over in the interim until Caoch Carter returns.
I think he didnt want it. Rogers i mean.
You all would complain if Jesus Christ himself were the coach. From what I have heard, Perry has had some pretty good jv teams. The last time I checked, a coach never got a hit or made an error in high school baseball. If Coach Rogers is there to help out then GC should do just fine. Coach Castle is doing a good job up here at the Springs. He has got our players doing things that they haven't done before. I'm sure that Coach Perry and Coach Castle would like to have the support of the fans and not everyone stabbing them in the back on here. I have heard that the funds in the baseball programs are well past dry at GC. How can a coach work with no money?
I think they'd actually be happy with coach carter haha, i dont konw what your talking about with there not happy with jesus being head coach of a high school baseball team.
To my knowledge coach Perry has only lost 1 JV LPD game the whole time he has been JV Head coach, that was last year to Burton on a pitching error. That's not bad. Give these guys a chance. Coach Rogers will be there to help.

Yeah dont string the guy up before he even starts. We will see in due time. Also he will be coaching a young team so his hands will be full.
what is wrong with Coach Carter?
Funny man, you cut TW out of the post as if to say they're not gonna be a contender to CW either [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

I dont know. Just hope he gets healthy soon if he is sick. I havnt heard anything.
hey i'm sorry pioneer, i was just assumning that castlewood would be the better team. i have very little knowledge of either TW or CW to be honest. i know that CW was good in basketball and wrestling and tend to beleive they will be the team to beat on the diamond as well. they've won that district the past couple of years if i'm not mistaken. i'm sure TW will have a fine team because they were pretty good last year. i just don't see twin springs doing much because they are generally not a very good baseball program. i'm sorry to leave out TW. no hard feelings mate.

Like they are contenders in anything. [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img] [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]
Funny man, let's see, in the past few years they have won back to back girls bball district titles, qualified for the region tourney in volleyball, won several district track titles, boys and girls, won 5 consecutive girls cross country district titles and 10 consecutive boys titles, and a couple region titles as well in both. They were also 5-0 against the LPD in boys basketball this past season, so no they aren't contenders in anything [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]
