Who is the favorite to win it this year?[/align]

Buckeye and Edison should battle for the top 2 spots. Creek and Stc should finish 3 or 4. The final 4 spots should be a crap shoot.

Edison should win the buckeye 8. They have a very deep pitching rotation. Will probably one of the best hitting teams they have had in a while. Time will tell but IMO they could make a deep playoff run.

St. C will have some good pitching and they always hit well. They will be tough to beat.

Just wondering what are everyones thoughts on the consolidation of the American Legion teams?
That being Toronto, Steubenville, Wintersville and Buckeye.
Richmond from what I undrstand declined.

Anybody have the latest on the legion team? I heard Richmond will stand alone and Steubenville will pick from 5 hi schools. Is that right?
Dont seem right to me.

St. C and Edison will battle it out. Throw a blanket over UL, Ferry, Creek and BL for 3-6. HC and Bellaire will battle to stay out of the cellar.

You are correct. Edison declined the invite. Smart move IMO. The politics will be terrible. I look for one of these teams to start back up in a few years.
Still can't believe Toronto jumped in. They have an excellent program and have done well.

toronto has had a nice program but they have not had a winning legion program since 2oo2. most teams that make it to the ohio state tourney are county teams. I disagree about the politics being terrible,the best players will play just like they did when ang,charlie,and coach mo coached the team.

It will be interesting to see how many Buckeye and Toronto players get playing time. SCC and Big Red have issues every year about who they think should be at certain positions. I believe the pitching will be the only positions available to the kids from Buckeye and Toronto becuase this area is down for SCC and BR.

all things being equal,as in fielding,baserunning etc.,if you can hit you will play.

in the past there was no depth a coach would look on the bench and no one was better or even equal,now things will change. players will be able to actually compete for positions.

I'm here.
Been on the road for work. The internet at the hotel was crap and I was working 16 hour days.

I need to get up to speed on the Buckeye 8.
How are the teams looking?

Heard an Edison soph has a great arm. Looking for him to be a big part of a good pitching rotation.

I hope winter is over and we get some good weather for the start of the sason next week.

I always going support Buckeye 8, they really give their best shot to won.
