Socrates Posted June 15, 2013 Report Share Posted June 15, 2013 Read that the Kolek brothers of Shepherd went to the Rangers area code team tryouts yesterday. Tyler reportedly hit 102 on the gun and Stephen hit 94. Whether those readings are completely accurate or not, Shepherd will have to guys bringing it next year.

PhatMack19 Posted June 15, 2013 Report Share Posted June 15, 2013 Bridge City beat Shepherd and the Kolek brothers in the 1st round of the playoffs this year. With 2 pitchers throwing 94mph+ it's hard to believe Shepherd could only manage to get 3rd in district and barely sneak into the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ya_know Posted June 15, 2013 Report Share Posted June 15, 2013 The older brother got hurt very early in district, and did not return. They should be picked to win district next year, as long as those two are still there and healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

idk Posted June 18, 2013 Report Share Posted June 18, 2013 Heck with two arms like that all Shepherd needs is to scratch out 1 or 2 runs a game and they should win most of them. No chance they will move. Why do they need too, throwing that hard every scout in the country knows who they are and were Shepherd is now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lepfan Posted June 18, 2013 Report Share Posted June 18, 2013 Our pitcher from La Grange (Supak) plays on the Heat team with them, said this last weekend they were both bring it upper 90's up to 102. Pretty impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

idk Posted June 18, 2013 Report Share Posted June 18, 2013 Lepfan, Shepherd has a few younger boys coming up that will be in the mix to help next year. They will have a better offense next year. These two boys are the real deal, good to see them doing good cause they work they butts off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
