I doubt if Coach Creech would start Creech against Estill. With him being a new coach, he may save Creech for West Carter and try to get as many wins as possible if he feels his team is not ready for a team of Estill's caliber this early in the year. Tough opener for the Wolves and their new head coach, but I look for Wolfe to improve as the year goes along and Coach Creech has more time with them. I guarantee you they are practicing long and hard every day because that's the way it was when my son played for him. They will get better. It is just a question of how soon.

Why? If Wolfe's supporting cast have improved so much since last year and Creech is as good as some posters say he is you would think he'd pitch opening day against Estill County, maybe close a couple of games on Friday or Sat. depending on his pitch count, and then bounce back against Perry Central the following Monday. Follow suit the next week and pitch against dist. opponent Breathitt County on April 5th.

After Wolfe Co. opens with Estill Co. they then play Riverside (1-15) last season, W. Carter (6-19), Menifee Co. (3-20) - doubleheader, and Elliott Co. (5-18). That ain't exactly murderers row. However, even if the hitters from Wolfe go 0 fer against Estill's #2 or 3 pitcher they still should be hitting .500 or better by the end of the week.
