Top 15 freshmen players in OC high schools

That is the problem with lists. There are always a handfull that didn't get mentioned that are as good or better than those that were mentioned. No matter what your opinion it does come down to who you know or who you are around. The kids you see more often will get the nod everytime over the kids not seen as much. It always depends on who compiles the list. I know 75 percent of those kids personally and they are very talented and deserving kids. I also know others that should of or could of been on the list. In the end it is nothing more than an opinion. Congrats to those that were recognized. Good job.

I'm glad to be playing with a couple of the mentioned girls instead of against them. They are all deserving of their recognition. I think the top coaches should be named for bringing out the best in a kid. Jmho.

Most definitely coaches can bring out the best in their players. I agree 100% but I also believe that any of those players would still be as good on any team and would get that recognition (because they are just good). They are just outstanding players and will move on to be even more awesome playing for different, college coaches, pro coaches, National Team coaches, etc....some good, some not so good...There are always fabulous teams that don't have fabulous coaches...

I believe that a list like that should be all about the players. Coaches can get their recognition elsewhere, like a coaches list.

Congrats to Carlson and Dewitt. I can remember when both you two were about 6 or 7 on our West Grove 8u winterball team. I think the name was Rampage. How time flies. Good luck to you both this season. West Garden Grove rec league represented well here as well.

Thanks, Kevin! Rampage #1.. I believe it was your kid who chose that name.. Kay was 5 and Nic was 6, their first 8U team.. Believe it or not, I still have that banner in my garage! No idea why out of all the banners from dozens of teams over the years, I kept that one! Hope all is well with your family, tell eveyone we said hello!

All 3 of our catchers from 16U Cruisers were named. Great job Cruisers!

Sorry for my mistake, I missed seeing the player from Los Al on the list, she's a great kid.....well deserved to be on Jen's list..........

Their are so many kids missing that should be included on the Top Freshmen list, the Freshmen pitcher from Los Al is clearly the Top pitcher beating Mater Deli, and Pacifica, she wasn't even mentioned, and others from other Top Schools. It is good to see kids receiving credit, but, I don't believe this list represents the best kids, it's a good start.

I'm just making a observation, and understand it's just a list, I was at the game, the Pacifica freshmen lost, to the other freshmen pitcher from Los Al, and that player wasn't even mentioned on this list, and that pitcher also went on to pitch and beat Mater Dei yesterday. For what isn't worth, that list is just talking points at best. My comment was that their are great kids missing off that list.......JMO

As Charliehough said, she is on the list at #11.
