WOW! Where did the year go?

Where did a year go?

My last post was a little more than a year ago and the questions have been answered.

We went 26-10, 15-0, in the toughest district in the state. The kids played as well as anyone could have hoped.

Brandt Bourgeois stood up and was a solid #2 to Kurt McCune (now at LSU). Scott Stonestreet surprised everyone, winning the second base job and then proving to be a excellent 3rd pitcher. He made us go with clutch hits throughout district and even played some 1st base.

Sam Carriere proved to be the best shortstop to ever wear at DHS jersey. He backed out on Nicholls State and is playing at LSU-E, And Matt Smith is at Delgado now playing 2nd Base. Even Seth Montz found a place to continue his career (LSU-Alexandria), after a solid season at 2nd Base.

So what are the unanswered questions for 2011?

An infield in flux, no returners and plenty of holes to fill.

The outfield is more settled with three players with experience. Zack Schexnaydre will be another force in the middle of the line-up. Brett Hebert played DH in 2010 and will solid in the 4 hole, but who else?

Nothing but questions, yet I love it. This could be the most enjoyable year in quite awhile. Few expectations, lots of young talent and plenty of competition.

Let the battles begin, I can't wait.

And I promise it won't be a year until the next post.
