OF is in region 3. They will not play a region 1 team in region 3 finals. If they make it to state maybe

I think Franklin would be the considered the favorite based off ranking and record. I think most would agree we prefer being the underdogs anyway. Orangefield has played much better since getting everyone back however, and I think it should be a good matchup.  It will be a fun series, with a chance to go to state on the line!

How deep is OF’s pitching?  Franklin’s  was solid. Handled a good Huntington team . Pulling for OF to get it done.

You didn't even see all the pitchers for Franklin either. A couple of solid pitchers didn't even pitch against Huntington.

Should be a great series then. Franklin has about 7 that could go seven each game. Looking forward to these games. 5 seniors were on the team that lost to diboll in the region final couple years ago.

Good luck OF.

Lucky for Orangefield there’s only 3 games max to play. 
 

Someone said they had a pitcher or 2 throw 90’s but I don’t know that for a fact.  Rumors.  

it appears that Orangefield will see some faster pitchers this round. Generally speaking I haven’t been too impressed with Orangefield opponents pitching. Only pitcher so far that was fast (92 mph) was vs Woodville in first game & Orangefield got several runs off of him. 
 

Looking for a good series with no injuries for both teams.

I heard Franklin had 15 that could go 7 innings.

Best of luck to the Orangefield Bobcats!  Brother-in-Law is an ‘86 graduate, and my sister taught there for many years.  Always follow from afar, and will be pulling for y’all!!!!
