Big Dan should get the ball today. Last out against TC, Perry started but that is when his injury started. Might have been his last start till region. Johnson came in and 123 4 innings in a row. Collins was in a funk at that time and A few changes have been made since then. TC has the best defensive team I have seen this year. Going to be a hard one to win.

Collins High School will make its first appearance in the KHSAA State Baseball Tournament when the Titans take on Lexington Tates Creek at 8:30 tonight in the final game of the opening day of the tournament at Whitaker Park in Lexington.
Collins (32-6), which has been ranked among the state’s top teams all season, won the 8th Regional Tournament on Thursday, 4-3, over Spencer County at Crestwood.
Tates Creek, also 32-6, is the 11th Region champion, having defeated defending state champion Woodford County to advance.
The Titans lost to the Commodores, 5-1, on April 26 in the Louisville Invitational Tournament, a game in which star pitcher Austin Perry, a signee with the University of Kentucky, was injured. Perry didn’t pitch again until his team’s victory over Simon Kenton in the semifinals of the regional.
Pitching is the key for the Titans, who won their first 20 games of the season and played a difficult schedule of some of the state’s best teams.
They also have a penchant for close games. All five of their postseason victories have been by a single run, and one game, a 1-0 edging of Anderson County in the district opener, went nine innings.
In addition to Perry (7-1), the Titans have Dan Sanders, who won a pair of 1-0 games in the postseason and is 10-0. He also pitched the seventh inning to save the final.
“This is huge. We just made history,” Sanders said of the program’s first regional title.
Buddy Johnson, the No. 3 starter and regular second baseman, was the winning pitcher in relief in both district games and was the winning pitcher in the final after throwing six innings.
Sanders had a walk-off hit and a walk-off walk in the postseason, and offensively, the Titans also are led by Logan Bailey, Nate Clifton and Zac Wiley
But their emotional leader, David Decker, was one of the heroes of the regional. He had a big hit sparking their seventh-inning rally to beat Simon Kenton, 6-4, and played a role in the final as well.
He was named the tournament’s most valuable player.
After the final, Decker was enjoying the moment on the field while holding the regional championship trophy in his right hand and the regional MVP trophy in his left hand.
“It’s really awesome,” he said. “I’m just so excited we get to go to the State Tournament in Lexington.”
