Whos the best Pitcher to come from your school

Hard to completely call this one right now beause you still have a few guys that are still out there continuing their careers. Heath may end up passing Willie before it's over with. Who knows. Adam Blanton is still playing college ball and Matt Fyffe still isn't through at Johnson Central.

Willie had the no doubt the best career after high school of anybody that ever played at Johnson Central and Heath Castle no doubt has had the second most successful career. Mike Hall and Mike LeMasters were both great pitchers at Johnson Central with their 84 and 85 regional titles. Shawn Hall and Alex Ward both had outstanding high school careers being the major reasons why Johnson Central won back to back regional titles in 95 and 96, and had good college careers. Brad White was an excellent pitcher a few years ago. But when it comes what was actually acheived at the high school level while still in high school at Johnson Central, Adam Blanton has blown them all away with what he acheived while at Johnson Central. He absolutely dominated his way with Johnson Central's final 4 run a couple of years ago against 3 straight state ranked teams. I dont know if anybody in 15th region history ever had a more dominating run than his in 2004. Now the next in line in the lineage is Matt Fyffe and he has a chance to match what Blanton accomplished.

Accomplishments after playing at Johnson Central it has to be hands down Willie Blair , with some of the other guys mentioned following Willie. However while playing at Johnson Central up to this point it has to be Adam Blanton as he has had the most successful high school career.
