2008 Pre-Season Rankings
Don't know enough about the 12u age group. Suggestions or comments would help THE GURU out!
14U
1. Lady Sharks - Hands down the favorite in Nor-Cal, a year older, with good coaching!
2. Strikkers - Good pickups to go along with team from fall, also good coaching!
3. Sorcerers - Will have another good team, good athletes, pitching is the question!
4. Grapettes - Need some help, but if they get a few bats, should be dangerous!
5. Sting - Need alot of help to go along with some key players, not sure about them!
6. Strikezone - Very good athletes, pitching questionable, but this team could be sleeper!
7. Tornadoes - Watch out for this team!
8. There's alot of teams that would make the final cut, but too many to choose from (suggestions, and why)
16U
The most balanced of the age groups!! This group will be fun to watch this year!
1. Grapettes(Bindii)- Great athletes, good pitching good pickups, and good coaching!
2. Sorcerers - Nice merge with AA, will help this team out alot, good pitching!
3. Grapettes(Reid) - Some say better than Bindis, pretty close, will see on the field!
4. Strikezone - Struggled last year, Much improved, with some key pickups!
5. Sting - Young team with good talent, pitching will be the question!!
6. Breeze - Always great team, might move up quick. Good coaching!
7. Strikkers - Good athletes, pitching needs to improve from fall! Good coaching!!
8. Mize Diamonds - Old team, good athletes, could be the sleeper of this group!!
9. Flames - Seem to put out good team every year! Same ole story!
10.Heat - Heard they had a great group of athletes, going off hear say!
I'm sure I missed some good teams out there, but with the help of many coaches, this is what THE GURU came up with! Suggestions are welcomed !
