Let's look at it this way folks. When it comes to baseball in the 10th Region, the top teams have experience. Harrison, Bourbon, Montgomery, GRC, and Scott have the most experience in post season play. I like to see other schools make a run at their district championships and play well in 10 Region playoffs, but this Region is one of the most difficult ones around!

Here's what teams are up against when facing these Top 5 teams in the 10th Region:

1. Harrison County- Plain and simple, Mac Whitaker has always had the upper hand when taking the field. I know he lost some great players last year, especially Brandon Martin, but he returns several starters and will continue to be a powerhouse.

2. Bourbon County- This group of ball players is probably the most experienced team that will take the field this season. Most of these guys have been playing on the same team since they were in grade school. They have outstanding pitching with three seniors that will lead the way in Ace left hander Brian Rupard, righty John Jacoby, and right hander Andy Dutton. Throw in some big hitting by seniors Mac Manning and Eli Covington and Bourbon County is the team to beat in the 10th Region this season.

3. Montgomery County- Don't know much about this team but the past Indian's teams have competed very well and fight until the end. Expect to see them competing with Bourbon and GRC for the 40th district title.

4. GRC- They had the best all around team last year with some good pitching, hitting, and fielding. This team comes ready to compete and will surprise alot of teams this year. Lost a heartbreaker in the 40th district title game to Bourbon but will look to get back there again. The Cardinals lost some big names, such as Jordan Barker, from last season but don't count them out because they are sure to produce big numbers once again.

5. Scott- This team was impressive last season especially upsetting Bourbon County in the first round of the Regional tournament, beating Nicholas in the 2nd round, and then meeting up with Harrison County. Needless to say, they turned some heads and earned some respect. Expect Scott to compete for the 37th district title once again plus compete in the regional tourney.

This is in no way any disrespect to any other teams in the 10th Region, this is simply an outsiders opinion. This is one of the toughest regions in the state of Kentucky when it comes to baseball with some of the toughest teams. Let's hope for a great season for all the athletes this year and look forward to seeing some old faces in the regional tournament as well as some new faces surprising alot of people!

I truly and honestly that Scott deserves that #5 ranking and has the players to back it up but at this point and time there are just too many unanswered questions about them in my mind to put them up that high. As of right now I'd have Campbell at #5 and Scott and Brossart fighting for the #6. This year will be a down year for the 37th district as they have lost some big time players over the years. There is no ONE team that stands out in my mind of the 37th so its really anybodys district IMO..
