no with wood bats the teams that have better pitching will pull away from the teams that dont have the pitching

Didn't just about all the east contenders lose 2 or 3 studs from last year?


hey their pitching will be better but they rely on offense on that wont be as productive,  Central's JV team was absolutely horrible last year, they had numerous 8th graders, West Fargo's JV 15-runned them in 3 innings, so ill put central in the bottom half of the edc, another thing people havent thought about is team speed will really come into play with wood bats. I dont know alot about the WDA but Minot is always a safe bet for 1st. EDC Predictions:

1.South

2. Red River

3. West Fargo

4. North

5. Central

6. Shanley

7. Devils Lake

8. Wahpeton

9. Valley City

You are right, as a team, Centrals's JV wasn't very good last year, but they did have about three good players that were called up and contributed.

thats just my prediction.  anything can happen in one game.  Neither team shows a definite reason for one being way better than the other.
I never blame myself when I'm not hitting. I just blame the bat and if it keeps up, I change bats. After all, if I know it isn't my fault that I'm not hitting, how can I get mad at myself?

Losing Landry will be tough for central, but he, Greicar and Wedin were the only impact players they lost. The younger guys on that team will be able to step up and fill some roles and I think Central will compete again this year. Speaking of people getting too much credit, What makes you think shanley is going to state?

anything can happen.  I'm not gonna start a whole session of bashing shanley again, i've heard enough of that.

CHS and Central play on the 30th if weather permits and it will be a great measuring stick for both teams not only talent wise but adjustment wise with the woodys
