Waupaca playing for d2 state title game today.  Can Walker Smith get it done on the mound against a potent lineup?  He better be dialed in.

Waupaca gets the job done....can't say Popham looked very good in their two state tournament games though.

He has some work to do to see field next year but overall I feel can hit most of the wiac pitching.  Guessing he plays outfield in college.  Heard walker smith isn't playing in college which was surprising to me.

That changed in last month then because I was told going to school there but not playing ball.  That's good news though kid like that needs to be playing.

According to the Wauwatosa paper, Austin Jones is leaning towards returning to Whitewater for his Junior Season.

I really think it would be in his best interest to do so.  Not from a program standpoint but rather from a developmental standpoint.  I just don't think he pitched enough this year because of his injury and an extra year of experience and maturation would serve him well in next year's draft.  But I wish him the best in whatever decision he makes.

I've recently come across the news of 2 very talented pitchers being committed to UWSP.

Elijah Cannon of Riverdale, who had a game of 25 K's earlier this season, as well as Mack Blashka of Saint Mary Central are both continuing their careers at Stevens Point.  I was wondering when I would hear of some pitching recruits for the Pointers.

Would LOVE to hear what Cannon's pitch count was in that game!!!!

10 inning complete game....I know back when I pitched, I had a couple games about 130-140 pitches...that was because I threw hard and was wild, not a ton of balls being put in play.  He had to be around that mark but with good control.  25 K's is ridiculous.  In an article about Cannon I read that he throw about mid 80s, which should go up some with added strength and maturity.  Very solid get for UWSP and with the last name of Cannon...not a better position than pitcher for him.

Blashka will be their #2 next year guaranteed.
Care to make a side wager?  ;D

Just another delusional post by Shinetime.  Blashka is a great recruit but I'd have a hard time believing he will come in as a freshman and move above Thomka and Miller from the start.  Of course Erickson will be the ace of the staff.

I think you are giving the kid a little too much credit....  On average, a 15 pitch/inning number is something most good high school pitchers strive for.  However, when you look at the fact that he was striking out 2.5 batters per inning, I feel pretty confident in saying he didn't hit that 15 pitch/inning number due to the fact that there weren't many (5) outs where he could save some pitches thanks to early contact.

I'm guessing there is a reason we haven't heard how many pitches he threw that game in an era where you can find just about any information you want....
