Tuesday night will bring the biggest game of the high school season. Ardrey Kell will host Providence at 7pm. Probably need to come early if you want a seat for this one. AK Head Coach Hal Bagwell will send Elon signee Jordan Darnell to the hill to face Danny Hignight's ace Richie Shaffer. Dont think for a second the starpower ends there, with AK's lineup including Ryan Stetson, Logan Ratledge, Jonny Eaker, Taylor Patterson, Brett Nyenhuis, Andrew Miller and plenty more the Knights can wrap up the league title with a win here. Providence brings starpower as well with the Seminuik's (Eric and Kurt) CA Clayton, Will Helms and Greg Lawson.
Most would venture to say this will be a pitching duel, but I bet the winning team will go over 6 runs.... I am not about to pick a winner in this battle, but I expect the best of the best to step up and lead their team to victory.
Expect to see quite a few scouts around the field and why not when you can come to one ball field and see 4-6 players that will play for money one day along with 15-20 kids that will play college baseball.
This game is a testamant to the outstanding youth baseball programs in the area, I am sure that 90% of these kids played for Olde Providence, MARA, or Park Sharon just 4 or 5 years ago. Many have trained with On Deck, The Megastars and more recently Carolinas Baseball Center.
Tuesday night should be a night to make us all proud of what we have built in South Charlotte for baseball.
PLAY BALL
