Alexander is one to watch on the mound from Piketon,other pitchers to watch will be claxon and Spence from burg,Robinson from waverly and Adkins from oak hill,top players to watch..brisker from oak hill is best shortstop I’ve seen play..great athlete with unreal power at plate, 20 hrs going into her jr year..her teammate Hughes is a beast at the plate also that put up 10hrs in freshman year..they are hands down best back to back hitters in soc2,sturgill from burg is a great player as well at the plate and in the field,these 3 will all be at the top for POY,(brisker and sturgill were both all-state last season),others to watch will be risner from burg,rice and Newman from northwest and wolfenbarker and Tolle from minford,they will all put up numbers also..I mainly watch soc2 so I haven’t seen everyone play in other leagues

what special freshmen to watch this year?

Why would the edge go to Sturgill? Not disrespecting. Just saying, Both are great players as you said neck and neck. But to give an edge bc of the team and coach they play for sounds petty to me. Same logic most have about who doesn’t win the league no one on any other team deserve recognition. It’s crazy. Best players doesn’t necessarily play for “best” team.

In my opinion...Last years post season awards are irrelevant to this discussion. There are players who deserved more recognition than they got. It’s all political.

it is petty to give the edge to the player on the best team but isnt that how it works? ive been around hs and jrhigh sports for years coached and umpired both. we are petty. many agree that sturgill and hughes are very comparable by talent on the field but as i recall surgill was district poy with state awards, hughes got snubed right? if i was a betting man i would bet thats who the previous poster is talking about. some argue defensive postion, why does that matter. inall my years hughes is best hs third base ive seen! she can play ss with any of them too did it in jrhigh, saw several games back then. but im guessing not many teams are bunting againt her that changes some teams game? would be very curious to see stats for all o fthe players mentioned.

Alexander (Piketon) is solid

Kellough (Huntington) P... is solid as well and will only get better!
(How could I go without mentioning and Huntington kid... LOL)

Haven't got to see as many play in the last few years, but hopefully after this year I can get back out to more games!

Huntington is my pick to win the SVC, and Kellough is the main reason. Getting passed Westfall will be tough, but I think they do it.

what freshmen should be added to this list?

Carissa Wheeler is a Freshman to watch out of the SVC. Very skilled catcher and hitter. Her dad played minor league ball for the Astros, and she definitely has a lot of that skill. Wouldn't be surprised to see her playing D1 college ball.

Who does Wheeler girl play for?

They have a couple other real nice freshmen also. Hannah Lougheed and Lexie Lockwood. They should be on the uptick.
