texas13 Posted February 10, 2014 Report Posted February 10, 2014 This district is gonna be tough and I believe the top 3 spots are accurate just don't know who will get the 4 spot vidor or lcm. Either of these teams could pop up and beat the top 3 with their aces on the mound. Really just depends on how the schedule falls Quote
ofrover Posted February 10, 2014 Report Posted February 10, 2014 With all this being said, 20-4A should be very interesting. Gonna be a long grueling season. I wish they still had 1 team from each district going to the playoffs like in the 70's and 80's. Things would be much more interesting IMO Quote
WhirlingDurbish Posted February 10, 2014 Report Posted February 10, 2014 I understand both sides of the discussion. The Mid County schools are "expected" to compete for a district title each year and that drives the players! Teams like Vidor and Lumberton, who both should have solid teams this year, don't have that expectation in their programs. I'm not saying they'll never get there, but they're not there now. Here's my predictions: 1) PNG Pitching, pitching and more pitching. Did I mention they have pitching 2) LC-M 3) Vidor 4) Lumberton Sorry Ned, you guys are gonna struggle this year. Quote

Bulldogbacker1234 Posted February 13, 2014 Report Posted February 13, 2014 Just don't think you guys are giving the boys from lumberton any credit they have 8 returning players and a pitching staff that can compete with png any day of the week.. Prediction 1.PNG/Lumberton toss up 3. Vidor 4. Think my dogs somehow slip in to that four spot Quote

Prediction 1.PNG/Lumberton toss up 3. Vidor 4. Think my dogs somehow slip in to that four spot I don't think Lumerton's staff as a whole compares to PNG. PNG essentially has 3 number 1 starters, and a wild card in Logan Chipman. If Chipman can put it together, he has the tools to be one of the best in the area. 1. PNG 2. Vidor 3. Lumberton 4._____________ Quote

Mr.Oct. Posted February 13, 2014 Report Posted February 13, 2014 Dont forget about Tyler Herrell. Tyler can eat up some innings as well. Quote

JRidge Posted February 14, 2014 Report Posted February 14, 2014 Well, I guess Ozen/Central will see you guys in track :lol: Can the Panthers return the favor and upset LCM in baseball??? (careful, it sounded the same way in basketball) :P Well Bigcam, Ozen is considered the bottom dwellers of 20-4a because of their past history! The district arguably has some of the best baseball teams in this area year in and year out, therefore Ozen & Central has a lot of work to do to become contenders! But, the good news is both programs are starting to have large numbers of kids who have been playing this game for awhile now. If they had a quality coach in Little League as some have, then their programs should improve each year. They may shock some teams this year and make the playoff race more interesting due to some possible upsets! :o Lol Bigcam2903 1 Quote

They have had way more success than Central. Ozen's history in baseball isn't much different than Lumberton. Quote
JRidge Posted February 16, 2014 Report Posted February 16, 2014 Ozen has at least 6 kids I now of who are playing college baseball from it's past 2 seasons. They have always had talent but lacked overall team baseball knowledge & experience from each player. Glad to see that this is starting to change and experience in the next few years won't be a factor. I would bet they will have the fastest team though in 20-4a. JMO Quote
Proud Dawg Posted February 16, 2014 Report Posted February 16, 2014 We'll if history has nothing to do with it then why do the same teams keep winning year in and year out. Winning breeds winning. No question about that. If you wanna dispute the season then you have to be prepared to back it up. There are exceptions to this rule but everyone can see these groups coming from a mile away. Not saying Lumberton won't win it all. Just saying they need to compete before they are considered in the top group in district. He'll Nederland has been winning in basketball and can't get any respect from the beaumont power houses. If you want respect go earn it. Don't bitch about it before you deserve it Quote

Don't bitch about it before you deserve it I must ask, where did this outrageous, misinterpreted, and obviously misdirected comment come from? I mean no one is asking for respect of their programs, respect is earned. Most importantly no one's (quote) "Bitching", and your agressive tone is definetly not needed. Nederland has done their thing year in and year out in all sports, which makes them what some would say a power house in 20-4a. With that being known and said, no one is going to take a backseat to anyone in the district, regardless of any past accomplishments! The games are played between the lines and you have definitely crossed it with your hostle remark. Let the kids play and the results speak because it sounds better when they do it!

tvc184 Posted February 17, 2014 Report Posted February 17, 2014 I am thinking that Nederland goes 14-0 in district and in a stunning outcome, every other team goes 0-14, making it the first time that 7 teams in a district did not win a single game and they have to do coin flips for 2-4 place. Quote

texas13 Posted February 17, 2014 Report Posted February 17, 2014 Every teams plays an inelgible player except nederland everybody else has to forfeit every game so nederland 14-0 everyone else 0-14 flipping for seedage Quote
navydawg31 Posted February 20, 2014 Report Posted February 20, 2014 Nederland has experience, same group of kids that has competed and won in every level of baseball they have played in. PNG/NED fighting for 1 and 2 everyone else fighting for the other two spots. No such thing as rebuild in Nederland it is RELOAD. Next man up mentality Quote
mytwocents-28 Posted February 20, 2014 Report Posted February 20, 2014 Vidor's gonna take it all this year. Everyone thinks all we have is foshee but y'all will see. :) Quote
PhatMack19 Posted February 22, 2014 Report Posted February 22, 2014 LCM lost to Mount Pleasant today 6-4. They are now 0-4 on the season. Quote
