Sweeny has been swinging the wooden sticks great in thier scrimmages and running the bases. looks like a Jasper team to me from a few years back.

The real show starts tonight. Wonder how many HR's they will hit this year? Set a school record last year it was between 55 and 65 I think?

I saw where the college's are using a little hotter bat this year, I was wondering if high school is using the hotter bat as well.

I think they are using the BBCOR

Yes, BBCOR and no one will confuse the BBCOR's with a "hot" bat! You really have to hit one "on the screws" to get it out. There won't be any cheap ones this season.

So are you saying the college bat is hotter then the high school bat.

[FB-fanatic]

Wow, 19-3A with three teams in top 20 with West just 10 miles away.

Robinson
China Spring
Lorena
West

This should simplify things...


Bat performance is specified by using the BBCOR, which for mathematicians is calculated using the inbound and rebound speeds of the ball:

where vI and vR are the ball inbound and rebound speeds respectively, r is calculated using the equation below, and Cball is the measured correction factor for each baseball.1

here is good site if you want to know more about the new bats Batted Ball Coefficient of Restitution (http://www.my-youth-baseball.com/bbcor.html)

[pancho villa]

Why are they going with a bat that is less hot? Them standaround non-athletes need all the help they can get.

Four D1 possible First Round Pitchers among them too. They will also be in the same District next two seasons.

Carpenter from West has already signed with Oklahoma as a shortstop. They signed him for his bat - 14 HR's last year and 13 as a sophomore. Baseball the next couple of years will be interesting in district. West will lose a lot of talent but some good underclassmen will still keep them competitive. As far as football goes.............:ack!:

[upper20]

So are you saying the college bat is hotter then the high school bat.

Same bats for both, and same as they were last year for college. Definitely not hot - supposed to mimic the performance of wood.

[regaleagle]

Well, at least West is good in at least one sport. That's more than some 3A schools can boast.

[Sportshack]

Interesting. I heard that college had upgraded from the BBcore and that high school was using what college did last year. Definitely a difference this year.

Watch out for the Caldwell Hornets.....They are going to suprise alot of people......
