When did this discussion become about hold backs. All because a child can play up doesn't mean that he or she is a hold back. And about the kid in Knott that came from Allen Central. I know for a fact that he is not a hold back. I saw him play baseball for Knott Central last year as a 13 yr old 7th grader. Fresh out of little league and good enough to play up. He wasn't the only one who played up either. A couple of sixth graders also played up because the coach believed in their abilities and he was right. Some kids are just exceptional and they deserve the chance to show what they can do. By the way, keep an eye on Knott Central baseball, they are better this year than they were last year. Go Patriots.
