[Strikeout King]

Congrats to the 'Neers. Hats off to Powell for making it to the title game after a dismal start. hats off to Wolfe for quite a run this year and Jenkins. Also Leslie and Hazard & jackson City for their runs as well at the end of the season.
The other 2 PC players were junior Katie Knox and 7th Grader Makayla Rucker. Rucker is a player to keep an eye on from what I saw at the region. Had three good, solid hits off three of the region's top pitchers. Knox was 7-11 from what I heard, she had timely bunts and a key double during the tourney to help Powell advance. Overall I saw a lot good talent and some promise for several teams at the region.

Powell County usually does field a pretty good softball team. Coach Faulkner does a good job with his girls.

Estill County has a tremendous middle school class coming in that will be one of the better teams to come through Estill County.
