AJ25 Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 they're a pretty solid team in the Region 14. They are in the best junior college conference in baseball. If you can get over living in bossier, it's a good place to play ball at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EAGLE07 Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 Bossier is basically Shreveport, La. Play in a minor league stadium that's pretty nice. Was or is home of the Shreveport Captains, I believe. Play in Region 14 East Zone w/ Angelina, Paris, Panola, Texarkana, NorthEast Texas, Navarro, and Lon Morris. As AJ25 noted, very strong competition in Reg. 14. South Zone is San Jac, Blinn, Alvin, Laredo, Galveston, and Wharton. Bossier usually finishes in the bottom 1/2. However, last year's team was in the hunt until the final week of conference play. From the 3 games I saw them play last year, they seemed to be very well coached. Word was that several players were dismissed late in the season for failing drug tests. The remaining players had no quit in them...as I witnessed 1st hand when they beat Angelina w/ their top pitcher on the mound. Not sure what options you may have, but IMO, not a bad place to play. Region 14 draws many MLB scouts and D1 recruiters. My 2 cents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJ25 Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 Richland is D3 Juco, so no athletic scholarships. But if you have to go to a D3 Juco, this is the one to go to. Actually won the D3 Juco world series this year. School is cheap as dirt but you have to stay in an apartment because the school does not have dorms. Galveston just went through a coaching change, but they finished in the middle of the pack in Region 14 South. A good place to play, plus it's college at the beach.

Again AJ25 nails it on the head...this kid is in the know. D3 go to Richland. I do know that Galveston has a requirement that the HC must have a Master's degree....which impressed me. "College at the beach ", got to be worth something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
