With tryouts pretty much over, who are some of the faces that will be seen on new teams next year. Any coaching changes?? Are there any shockers or major shakeups??? Any good free agents still on the market?? I personally am interested in the 16U and 18U.

Alright then, I'll get things started.....

Looks as if the Stingrays-Tolar has totally revamped there lineup. Several Buckeye Heat-Allen players (Gibson, Huck, Kilbane) as well as a few from the HOO Prowl (E & K Detwiller), and (McDermott) from the Lake Erie Tidalwaves.

Classics Purple has picked up (Hurley) from the Heat.

Looks as if the Lasers White has picked up a pitcher from the HOO Force (Johnson), (Pugh & Rossi) from the Heat.

I'll throw few names out there just to let folks know who to expect when you see the 13u Stingrays -Caton next year . We kept 8-9 of the same kids , picked up 2 girls from the classics , Taylor D. and Tera D, a girl from the vipers , Alyxis M, and Shyla M from the Doom. We lost a few players , not sure where all of them landed but one -- Hutch , moved over to the doom this year. MD

Here is a team photo of the Trenton Trallops 16U team. Bring it on.

Seriously though, there were a lot of players moving teams for whatever reason. It will be an exciting upcoming season.

Shayne, we changed teams and looks like we will be facing you this year. The dd is playing up on a 16U and I'm coaching the hitting. Hope to see you at the clinic Oct 4&5.

Whatever the changes, it's nowhere near the changes I've seen here in Washington. I'd estimate 50-70% of each team's roster changed. I guess that's normal here. I might as well toss all of my 2008 team rosters.

Maybe that's the way it is, but it doesn't seem nearly as fun that way. My Heat team stayed mostly intact for four or five years and it seems most of the teams we played were pretty stable. It would have been stressful trying to replace half of the team or more every year.

Anyone hear anything on the GCKA Nightmare, or the 18U Wolfpack team put together this year by Jamie, or Tim's Cincy Doom 92 team??

I guess you never had any tryouts, Joe.

Feiste moved from Breakers to MC Madness with a load of strong talent plus strong new additions.

Lots of changes in the local SWO 18U teams with the Cincy X-Treme and Charisma breaking up.

16U Pitcher from Cincy Storm moved to 18U Charmers. Charmers also picked up a couple of girls from 18U X-Treme.

Hannah (Bannana) from Cincy Charisma went to Valley Storm. They'll love her enthusiasm and the way she plays.

New 18U Cincy Static looked like they had some good talent at their tryputs.

betterhitter: We did have tryouts every year and were usually looking for 1-2 players. We were always specific about how many players and what positions we were looking for.
