Who does Ridge play this coming week and where at?

Any other good or interesting games being played this coming week?

[whatisgoinon]

let's hear about some good catches this year

Mike Tomovich had a nice one against NBC that WAS caught by the way...

Ryan Spiker had another great one against Claysburg Tuesday

Bedford on Tuesday should be quite interesting.

Do both.

If you are a competitive athlete in both sports.

Do them both.

Personally, I think the Ridge team will go undeafeated. We have the best players in every aspect of the game. Hitters and catchers and pitchers. Brock Manges, Nick Hurrincane, Micheal Tomovich, Mark Saxman, Tyler Walter, Kelbi Bugh, ryan Spiker. There all really good players and with their skill, they'll definatley go all the way. Good Luck Guys! :cheesy:

Look at the old poll results that started before the season--not many people expected Rdge to be where they are now.

A couple points to keep in mind.

Play each game to win and the record will take care of itself.

And this is for the group of athletes listed above. You fellows along with a couple not listed like Nate Hauer and Mike Godissart. You boys are blessed with a lot of natural skills and are functioning well as a team. Do your best to find some real challenging baseball leagues or tournaments to play in this summer. Especially the pitchers. It is nice to win the Jr. High League, but the real goal is to compete and do well at the state level. Ridge has a track record of doing quite well at the JH level only to fall short when the boys arrive at Varsity. Do what you can now to build yourselves up to be successful at that level.

Attend camps. Talk to Coach May about this. Visit with the High School coaches.

Success does not happen by random chance. It takes a plan and a lot of hard work.

Do the right things now so that in the next 2-3 years we are reading about all the success stories you young men are having.

Good Luck.

I definately agree with you there, CRLionDawg. I have heard so many stories about average atheletes who improve so much and become stellar athletes by attending clinics or joining other higher-skilled level teams during the offseason. The only way to improve is to keep practicing hard....never quit.
