To be honest I didn't know that 6th graders didn't try out before this year. I think tryouts are limited to 6th grade Middle School only. And the reason being because of insurance. Schools can only cover kids that attend their school (I think).

Anyway, best of luck to them.

I was under the impression that it was felt that 6th graders were to young to move up for baseball. I think they will be fine though and it is best to get them started early. One would think that all the students fall under the insurance blanket of the district not the individual schools. That maybe different nowadays with KERA and the way they have things set up. Yes nothing but the best of luck to the Middle School Lions.

I encourage everyone that possibly can come out and support these players and Coach Prater. We need to show him that we care and we appreciate him. The people of Lewis has a gem in Coach Prater and we want to make sure he stays with us. You would have to travel a long long long way to find one better than him.
