The 2010 Cougars return seven starters and nine seniors. Jake McWhirter, who has signed with Tennessee Tech, and Turner Bush return as the top pitchers. These two won over half the games last year. Other pitchers who have some experience on the mound are Lance Jarreld, Devin Wrye, Tyler Bivens, and Jackson Chambers. Returning infielders are 3B Connor Hawkins, 2B Seth McFerrin, and 1B Jake McWhirter. Lance Jarreld, Chase Snyder, and Hunter Miller return in the outfield.  Weston Wolfe returns behind the plate if he can recover from a football injury on his throwing shoulder. The strength of this team will be senior leadership and experience.  Areas of concern for this team will be the shortstop position, injuries, and pitching depth.  The key to success is to play as a team rather than a bunch of individuals.

The 2010 CPA lions are seeking to establish themselves as a legitimate AA baseball program this year. Year after year, the Lions have been a middle of the district team. In the school's history, they have never won a district, region, or sectional championship. This years' team has high expectations after only losing two starters off of last years' team. The strength of this team in 2010 will be experience and a deep pitching staff. Returning to the starting line-up this year will be Seniors: Will Drummond (OF, BA .365), Michael Gibson (3B, BA .416), Phil Hardman(OF, BA .366), and Lincoln Lakoff (2B, BA .337) Juniors: Michael Jean (1B, BA .333) and Clayton Nichols (SS, BA .475). The pitching staff only graduated 18 innings from a team that played 33 games last year. Returning starters include Seniors: Michael Gibson (50 K's in 29 IP) and Will Drummond (ERA 3.75).  Junior, Michael Jean (W/L 6 - 2).Sophomore, Davis King (ERA 5.89).  The Lions will also look to two other Sophomores to fill big roles on the mound this year, Hunter Thurley and Zane Russell. Coach Larry Nesbitt said "In order for us to be successful this year, we must change our mentality of just being average.  It is time for us to get over being in the middle of the district. We can do this by simply competing in all phases of the game.  We have the talent to make a run, now it is up to us to compete."

The 2010 Raiders have some big shoes to fill after an outstanding 09 season that saw them capture the District Championship for the first time in school history and set numerous program records along the way including wins with 26. While the Raiders did lose 6 seniors last season 4 everyday position players return as well as 4 of the top 6 pitchers. In the infield 4yr starters Sr. TYLER BIGLER *Columbia State Commit* (.432/2/26)and Sr. KYLE THERRIAULT (.346/0/10) return at Short and 1st. Sr. JOHN KENLEY will work in some at 1st as well as DH. 3B will again be anchored by 3yr starter Jr. AUSTIN SCHUBERT(.381/1/22)with Jr. JEFFREY SCARRITT (.366/0/10) taking over at 2nd. Behind the plate So. Taylor Ellis will be given the chance to start everyday after having a very productive summer. In the outfield Sr. Kyle Brochu *Columbia State Commit* (.448/2/23) will again be at the helm in Center for the fourth straight year. The corner outfield positions are two of the biggest question marks for the Raiders heading into next season. Sr. TYLER KLEIN(.231/0/2) and Sr. WYATT SHERRY will battle for Left while Sr. HOLDEN HOWARD (.286/0/3)and Sr. STEPHEN HARDISON battle for Right.
On the mound the Raiders look to have a staff that could rival last years that had a team ERA of 3.00. Sr. Zach Walton *Walters State Commit* (6-0/1/1.05) returns as the unanimous number 1. The number 2 spot is up for grabs between 4 players: Sr. BRENT WHITE(3-1/4.53), BIGLER (0-2/8.25), BROCHU (1-0/4.30), and Jr. BRAXTON TEAL (0-0/6.30) who really came into his on this summer. For us to be successful this year we have got to have exceptional leadership from a group of 10 seniors that have helped build this program since they stepped in school. If we get that coupled with a great approach on the mound and at the plate this could be another very good year for Raider Baseball.

The 2010 Page Patriots are replacing 9 seniors, 6 of which went on to play collegiately. This year’s team looks to build off of the back to back region appear-ances that last year’s seniors helped build. Seniors Ben Olivares and Garrett Gross (Wallace State, AL) will anchor a staff which loses 95 innings from last year. Jr's Daniel Johnson and Joey Caporali will also throw a lot of innings. Speedy senior David Seeman (90 career stolen bases) will lead an outfield which looks to replace all 3 spots. The infield will be led by senior Sean McComisky (.500 Avg) at third, Sophomore Keirce Kimbel at shortstop, and Jr. Daniel Johnson at 1st. The biggest questions are at the outfield corner positions, second base and behind the plate. For us to be success-ful the seniors are going to have to step up and lead a very inexperienced team.
