According to these rankings, Jasper will be a HUGE underdog:

Dogs, better bring your A game!

At this point, rankings don’t mean anything. If you make it to these rounds everyone is good and playing good baseball. 

But if you want to look at it like that... I’d rather be the “underdog”. You’re suppose to lose. Therefore play with nothing to lose and don’t look back! Let them play with all the pressure.

Jasper has been underestimated all season.  This is a Jasper team with a 30-5 record with those 5 loses coming to Sam Houston (2nd Ranked 5A team in LA), Acadiana (3rd ranked 5A team in LA), Kelly (TAPPS State Runner Up), Central Heights (Top Ranked 3A Team in TX), and Hudson (District rival, 14 inning game).  They played a very TOUGH schedule and beat quality team after quality team, yet never received the recognition they deserved.  Being the under dog is nothing new to these kids and they thrive in that role.  They have a team full of hard ball players, great coaches, and they all have grit in their teeth! 

Look at their stats:  .310 team batting average, 15 HRs, 262 Runs, THREE Pitchers with an ERA below 1.7 with a combined 27-2 record.

These kids will show up to play and it's gonna be one hell of a series!

Jasper has been overlooked in state polls all year. I think two of their losses being to LA teams don't help much.

SETX vs Robinson since 2010

2018 - Jasper (W)

No disrespect for Robinson.  They are a well coached and good team.  I'm sure Robinson will be in the path many more times for SETX teams.

These were two very good teams.   The 3 Each team had 3 or 4 excellent pitchers.  The difference was jasper’s hitters.   They hit from 1-9.   

A few errors here and there by both teams, but fun games .

 

 Salado looks like another powerhouse.   They get no easier from here
