Absolutely pathetic. No excuse for this. When you are trying to become on of the top programs in the region again, losses like this are major setbacks.

Absolutely correct. Cant blame the coach for this one, other than them not being focused. I caught the last few innings and the Pikeville kids played with zero heart. The young players seemed to be playing hard but all juniors and especially the seniors had their heads buried in their tails. Dingus is a senior and played well but other than that it was pathetic. I think Pikevilles seniors have not taken a leadership role that is positive for the underclassmen. All of the seniors better realize that they have about 2 weeks left in their baseball careers and then it is off to the softball fields where rotting baseball players go to die. If Harmon and Luke give the same intensity as Dingus, this team would be a regional contender. Huffman ticked the umpire off in the second inning and doomed himself and the team. Harmon let them have the first run by pulling up on a routine fly and letting it drop.
