you might watch a couple of high school games that paintsville plays in the regular high school season and come up with these statements but you have to account for what these kids do in the summer...which by the way is much tougher than the high school season as you know....I wont argue that paintsville needs to find more than one slugger and it in theory would be possible to pitch around one hitter...if that is all they had, but if you think we were a sluging team last year then you are mistaken...I would also agree that corey probably should hit in the 3 or 4 hole last season, at the same time corey has hit in the 3-4 hole for post 76 during the summer and fall and they face much tougher pitching than the high school season has to offer and he hit very well both left handed and right, if a kid can it ..a kid can hit .....so pitch around him and put him on base every time ....all the better it is a team sport and we will have at least one hitter to deal with besides corey,,,as for Conley he plays golf in the off season.....will he be the best in the region...who knows .. he wasnt last year , I seem to recall a first at bat home run in the district off the bat of adams last year and I know that they tried to pitch around him then...but until the season my money would be on the kids who work on their game at a higher level in the off season..Im pretty sure that you subscribe to the same thought processes....

Kidding me? I seem to recall Mike as slowing down the Tigers for the most part on the hill after that, and grabbing a 3-run, (not solo) hit, helping lead JCHS to the district finals. I believe Corey will be the best hitter in the 15th this year. By a wide margin. LC fans will get me over this, but I also thought he was the best last year, at least up until the postseason.
I just think you coulda chosen alot better way to continue pumping Corey up ( I think anyone can see by his play on the field, that he is one of the elite players in the area and has been the last few years), than using that game as an example. I would much rather take Mike's game on the mound and at the plate, than that one solo shot to lead off the game.
