Ellery Bresnahan for sure has to be up there. Colton Anderson and Logan Lund from DP. Jacob Hagler from NS. I am sure there are some names i am forgetting. I personally think Bresnahan is one of the best baseball players from North Dakota in a long time, it's too bad he has been injured or he would be way above what he is right now which is still very impressive.

Nick Milbrandt from Kindred is a very good pitcher.

Lubbers from Central Cass. He has a few Championships (Babe Ruth and Legion) under his belt.

nothing wrong with relying on your defense...especially if your defense is good

Just going by what I read in the local paper.
And since Milbrandt was already mentioned in this forum, I thought I'd add Lubbers.

Milbrandt, Lubbers square off in pitchers dual (Highlight)

i wish some of the younger generation would realize you dont have to be a Nolan Ryan to be a good pitcher. Brad Radke made a career out of letting his defense do the job. Mark Buerhle, same thing. if you have a great defense behind you, then ya why not let them do their jobs. you dont have to over power every hitter to be successful.

Good point, never took that into consideration...my bad guys. I was just thinking of over powering guys like a Milbrant, Bresnahan, and Storebo from region 1.

Stemen had 8 K's against Casselton in their 4-3 win in the region game... it was a pretty good performance had a couple walks and hit a guy but showed composure and got the job done

Well I believe once Milbrandt can pitch again that he will show that he is at the top of quite a few lists. He has everything a pitcher needs, control and power... His run last year was one of the best ever.

Storebo from FSHP pitched against LaMoure tonight and had 11 k's, that is now 33 k's in 3 region starts (Enderlin, LaMoure, and Kindred)

He pitched as good as anyone else could have....his defense gave out on him in the 7th inning....going into the 7th it was 5-2....11 k's.....thought he had a kid wrung up to end the game (Theilges), Theilges even started walking back to the dugout and it was called a ball.....turns out to be at the end of the game, the homeplate ump was LaMoures head coaches's brother

can't blame the game on the ump, the ump cant hit the ball and score 3 runs for them. Looks like when it came to crunch time, LaMoure was the one to be more clutch.

That close call came in the 9th. Tyler Thielges first clutch hit came on a 2-0 count in the bottom of the 7th. No controversy there. Tyler's walk off on a 2-2 count came in the 9th. No doubt that Storebo is a great pitcher though. Hits his spots well. Talking to Tyler, he said the pitch was outside the plate a couple inches, but high school umps still give the pitcher that call sometimes.

Back on topic- I think Milbrandt- Kindred, Stemen- LaMoure, Storebo- FSHP, and Hill- NC are all top pitchers. Bresnahan-CC could be if his shoulder wasn't messed up. How has Ty Bruner from Velva-DA been pitching?

The person you're referring to is a pretty good umpire. He has been umping for a long time and he has been doing it at a high level for quite some time.
The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength, not a lack of knowledge, but rather a lack of will.

Stemen bounced back to get the win against NCass last night... Lost to them earlier in the year... Only had 5 K's but hit his spots well and used his defense really well letting them make plays and in the end of the game after giving up 2 runs he shut NCass down in the 8th 9th and 10th... Then Thielges got another clutch hit after a Mieklejohn hit and after Hodem moved Mieklejohn up.

Not quite sure how you could say he doesn't have a bum shoulder when he has needed surgery on it and says himself that it doesn't feel 100%. 13 K's goes to show just how fantastic he could be with some more consistency. I blame his lack of consistency on the shoulder. Ellery is a gamer!

Pretty excellent throwing last night from Stemen from LaMoure, throwing 10 innings and only giving up 2 runs the whole game to North Star, he's got to be in the run for the top 5 pitchers in the state. Never loses speed throughout the game.
