12u Fall tryouts-Who are favorites & sleepers going forward?

[bigballer]

I would say it depends what OBS team and pitcher you talking about. OBS Kat's #1 definitely throws over 55. It also appears that Robert Ervin has joined Kat's staff. Should be a good fall for 12U.

12u Fall tryouts-Who are favorites & sleepers going forward?

Any predictions as of yet in the 12U world

[newASAparent]

There have only been two tournaments and it hasn't had all the big dogs. LTG won one Foothill Gold won in Madera and Ybarra got rained out last weekend so there hasn't been much. Breeze has kept quiet. They look strong. It is still to early for rankings or does anyone have an early set?

Agreed newASA, just not a big enough sample size yet to put any credibility into any rankings. Louie nailed the top four, as LTG, Gold, OBS & Breeze are all off to fast starts, though the order can and probably will be debated in the near future. Spartans are solid as usual, and watch out for Mizuno-Stewart. He has lost some players but has retooled with a few good additions. They can beat anyone on the list on any given day. TC has been a major underachiever thus far. By mid-October, things should sort themselves out a bit.

I've seen all the teams in the top 5 play except the Breeze. Have they played in any of the tourneys yet? If so how did they look?

[newASAparent]

Breeze lost to the Spartans before the rain hit last weekend. The first tournament had all the teams you mentioned except Spartans and breeze. I don't know scores but LTG best monarchs and gold. Last weekend in Madera didn't really have anybody accept team California and gold. Whens the next tournament every one will be at?

[jbl1465]

First weekend in Oct. LTG beat Gold 3-0. Don't know score of Monarchs game.

[newASAparent]

Which one are you referring to?

[jbl1465]

Ybarras tournament in Roseville. I just retread the team list and I didn't see LTG,Spartans 01, or the Monarchs. We may have to wait a while before we see all the teams in the same tourney.

[newASAparent]

I've looked and I don't think it will be til November. That's too long to wait! I think breeze is playing in a friendly this weekend against monarchs, ltg, usa elite
