a couple of more surprise teams have to be RYE and SCARSDALE both teams are playing very well. i also agree with joe b kennedy is a big surprise i just dont think they have enough fire power to go all the way. keep an eye on westlake in class B started out 1 and 5 now playing 500 ball. very young team with a new coach they also have 2 wins over kennedy this year

JFK has to be the surprise team of the year. Nobody expected them to be 10-4 at this time of the season. However they still have to prove themselves this weekend in the N. Salem tourney and then face Put Valley. Thier biggest game of the year will come when they take a giant step up in competition against Carmel HS on May 21. This team is good enough to make it to the Sectional finals. And should be one of the top 4 seeds in B.

Just curious are there any surprise teams this year that are doing good who weren’t expected to be doing this well?

Today at the Yorktown Beacon game, Paula Devito made one of the nicest catches I’ve seen in HS ball! When Ytown was up 3-1, Beacon had 2 runners on and a Beacon player(sorry I don’t know her name) hit a long towering shot. It looked like Beacon was going to take the lead as the ball sailed over the fence. Devito timed it perfectly and leaped for the ball as it was leaving the field. A spectacular catch that saved the game! Very easy to talk about hits, rbi’s and strikeouts. Great defense doesn’t always make the news(Although it did today in the JJ game as well)
Great catch Paula!
