Springboro Baseball

[borofan09]

Springboro will have 4 defianate division 1 players 3 who have already commited
Chuck Ghysles(Dayton)
Cory Hough (Cincinnati)
Adam Baily(Murry State)
Mike Kindel(undecided)

How far do you think this very talented team can go in the very competitive Region 4?

[Voice-of-Reason]

Springboro will be the class of Dayton and should contend to get out of Region 4. They are very good!

[TheKid08]

loaded pitching staff... imo they have a very good chance at state

[Wolfman1]

Mike Kindel is listed by the Buckeye Scout as the 6th best player in the state. He is a centerfielder.

[GCPRO]

That is very strong, is Mark Pelfrey still the head coach? With that group will have a good chance to advance to regionals.

[Wolfman1]

Yes, Coach Pelfrey is at Springboro.

[Hakko936]

Springboro is going to be tough. Hopefully some of the other GWOC teams can be competitive with them.

[Wolfman1]

There may be others, but Sidney is loaded and Miamisburg has Justin Good. Good threw twice against Boro last season, 3-0 loss and 4-1 win (2 hitter). Burg is always a challenge for Springboro.

Boro at Lebanon. Strange things always happen at Lebanon. Might be a head thing for the Springboro players. Lebanon defends their field very well.

You are right Wolfman, Sidney is loaded. Only losing 1 starter from last year's Sectional Champ and District Runner-Up team. They set the Sidney record for most wins in a season(24-5). Even without Dayton Area POY Catcher Jude DeLoye, Sidney will probably be stronger than last season.

Brad Yinger, Joe Engle and Nathan Strome are all Aces on the mound. Very solid pitching staff this season for the Yellow Jackets.

Sidney and Springboro are both favored to win their Divisions of the GWOC.

[Rainistheemeny]

As long as Coach Pelfrey leaves his pitchers alone, Springboro will make it to the regionals.

Elder
Springboro
Moeller
Lakota West

Besides the Big 4, I know Springboro has the Lample kid who is probably a Division III player. Who is the Boro's catcher? Isn't that their big weakness?

[Yellow_Jacket06]

I'd love to see Sidney and Boro play. I don't think they have each other scheduled though.

Although Sidney does have an Open date for Wednesday, April 9th.

They are however scheduled to play in 2009 on May 1st.

[borofan09]

James sheltrown is boros catcher and he was a gwoc HONORABLE MENTION LAST YEAR

[Wolfman1]

I believe that Sidney and Springboro play a double dip on April 5th at SBHS. Could be interesting.

[Rainistheemeny]

I think my grandpa was honorable mention GWOC...I think the GWOC is like FIRST grade. If you participate, you are honored with a sticker!

All League awards a mostly political, usually they get the Player of the Year right and then from the rest of it...its voted on who likes whom and who wants who on the team.

[borofan09]

with the above mentioned springboro also has some great position players such as Stefan Lamley, Robert Riley, Max Monning, and others

[kzr0]

Seen Kindel play a couple of times. This kid is a 5 tool player. He is gonna be real good at next level. His dad was a good ballplayer for Barberton in late 70's.

[borofan09]

Awesome...

Sidney's Brad Yinger is being looked at by alot of MAC schools, and Joe Engle P/3B is leaning toward Wright State.

Thats as much as I know right now.

[Wolfman1]

as the 33 best player in Ohio according to the Buckeye Scout.

[Wolfman1]

Cory Hough is listed 28th on the Buckeye Scout 100.

Yeah, it says Greg Engle but it's really Joe Engle.

I watched Sidney American Legion Post 217 last summer. Joe hit a grand slam at over the scoreboard at OU's field in Athens during the State Tourney.

Joe Engle Summer Stats:

.375 AVG, 160 AB's, 60 Hit's, 12 Double's, 12 HR's, 32 Run's, 2nd on the team with 54 RBI's, .638 SLG%, only 8 Strikeouts.

[Wolfman1]

on the Buckeye Scout at 21.

[Wolfman1]

What will Boro's starting line up look like on opening day?

[Rainistheemeny]

Wolfman,

It will probably look like the one on the lineup card Coach Pelfrey walks out to the umpires before the first inning. Just my guess...

[Yellow_Jacket06]

wow we got a real comedian on our hands here!

[Wolfman1]

Hough – P
Kindel – CF
Lamley - IF
Bailey – 1B
Sheltrown – C
Ghysels - IF

Need one more infielder and two outfielders. Any thoughts?

(not necessarily in that order)

[fivebuckeyes]

Here are some to add

Bryce Drew- IF Jr
Nate Reynolds- OF Jr
Robert Riley- IF Sr
Scott White- OF Soph
