Bollinger already has a spot, he never played jv last year. Also, Creighton played up a few games on varsity last year so he will play this year. Creighton has a chance to play some outfield this year for them after a good Metro's season last summer.

The reason that teddy will play 2nd is because Mankato( I believe) wants him to play middle infield for them.

He was benched the last game of state because of a bonehead coaching move and got frustrated and left. Him and coach Gustavson have talked and he will be back for the 2007 season.

mid 70s? no way. that might keep his era under 15. hate to burst your bubble, but mid 70s just isnt going to cut it.

So does this mean they will lose by 15 when he pitches instead of 25 every game?

Does it also mean that Ryne Hornecker won't hit bombs off them this year like last year? Hahaha

true.

Going off of how the Legion season ended last year I would have to say Jordan Martinson would be the top returner.

He shut down Bismarck at the West Region (although the Govs came back to beat Minot), he shut down Williston at state and then he held Lawrence, Kansas to one earned run over seven innings at the Central Plains. Lawrence beat Minot and went on to win the Central Plains, but Martinson basically gave up 2 earned runs or less in each of his final three starts.

what are you talking about?

Bismarck High got a kid from Colorado who transfered at semester. Supposed to be a good all around athlete in football, basketball and baseball. Could be BHS #1 in the rotation and possibly hit in the 4 spot.

I also heard of that and also a kid from texas in dickinson not sure what grade both of them are in though

Man must be pretty nice for these schools to pick up random solid players from all over the country haha good for them i just wish we could randomly have a kid capable of being a #1 starter and 4 hitter, if he is really that good

i think everybody needs to stop with the "such and such from wherever, who happens to be really good" crap.
