On the Road to Peoria

With HS tryouts underway who do you like this year. I will start the conversation saying I think that Moline is going to bring home the hardware in June. I have DDs at DGN and Benet, both good programs but I think that Moline has the total package and will be there in the end.

Discuss........ 8-)

Moline has probably the best lineup in the state, but pitching will probably be biggest question, if someone can step up, they will again be fighting for a state championship.

Yes they are 4A. I am not very well versed in 1A-3A. Mostly 4A up here near the city.

UT and Moline will play again in Sectionals and this year Moline still has the better line up, but UT has the edge at pitcher. Should be another interesting playoff match up.

Moline and UT will not play softball in sectionals. Moline is 4A and UT is now 3A in softball.

UT is United Township High in East Moline. When IHSA did there multipliers last year it knocked UT to 3A, which we dont understand why because UT has won the Western Big 6 2 years in a row, eventually losing to the State Champs. Year after year its usually Moline, UT or Alleman battling for the Big 6 title.

Its actually suprising to me that UT didnt even get a little "consideration" in the polls, but oh well its a preseason poll, it will all be settled on the field!!!!
