Hokie777 72 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 Who are the top senior baseball players in our SWVA area? Va High always has good ones along with Abingdon.. What's your thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falcon Mania 235 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 Right now Tanner Barrs and TJ Taylor are leading Abingdon in batting average. Somewhere in the .450 range with each having double digit RBI stats Hokie777 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearcat Dad 439 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 I’m not touching the “who’s the best seniors” for the Bearcats with a 10 foot pole, but I will echo @Falcon Mania and say Tanner Barrs is the best hitter in SWVA and even if you add in NETN, he’s second only behind Gavin Cross for Tn. High. TJ Taylor is also a really, really good baseball player that can play multiple positions, very well. Trey Brown and the Cole kid for Richlands are good ball players too. (I think they’re both seniors.) Simmons is a really good player, but I’m not sure what year he is. Nate Bailey for Union is another good one I’ve seen this year. A few more I’ve seen do some good things this season are.... Moore (JSB) Osborne (Marion. Another one I’m not 100% sure of what grade he’s in) I can’t speak on the Graham kids yet. We haven’t played them, but we do play them twice this week. Hokie777 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That may be a tough one outside of Dixon for VHS and Taylor at Abingdon. Outside of those two, most of the good pitchers in SWVA are underclassmen. EDIT: I forgot about Bailey for Union. If I’m not mistaken, he threw well in the FCA tournament at the beginning of the season when Union beat Boone. EDIT #2: If the Parker kid at Tazewell is a senior, he throws it pretty well too. The Tn. side is loaded with hitters! EDIT #3: Jeez, I forgot Moore at JSB as well. Hokie777 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falcon Mania 235 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 Moore from JSB is a senior. He could certainly help. And he is a lefty. 50kw and Hokie777 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He actually chose not to play football his senior year but played basketball and has had some impressive outings in baseball this season which isn't surprising. Mabe boy from.GW is good also but not sure if he's a senior. Bearcat Dad 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
