Mike Fields: State baseball tournament full of aces
A few facts, in lieu of fungoes, as we warm up for the Kentucky National Insurance/KHSAA State Baseball Tournament, which begins its weeklong run at Whitaker Bank Ballpark on Monday:
■ The 16-team field includes No. 1 Lexington Catholic, No. 2 St. Xavier, No. 4 Central Hardin, No. 9 Pleasure Ridge Park, No. 11 Apollo, No. 19 Lawrence County and No. 21 Clay County. Central Hardin and Clay County are the only teams back from last year.
■ Former champs in the field: St. Xavier (1942, '45, '49, '51, '81); PRP (1994, '95, '96, 2008); Newport Central Catholic (1946, '50, '54, '56), and Lexington Catholic (1999, 2006, '09).
■ Three first-time region winners are coming to town: Union County (2nd Region), North Oldham (8th) and Mercer County (12th).
■ Coaching experience covers the spectrum, from Bill Miller, in his 32nd year at PRP with 946 victories, including four state championships, to Taylor Brooks, in his first season in charge at Lexington Catholic. PRP and Lexington Catholic will face off in the first round of the state tournament. The last time they met in a post-season game was in the 1999 state finals at UK's Cliff Hagan Stadium. The Knights won 4-2 in nine innings as Mark Michael pitched a complete game.
■ There will be no shortage of aces on the mound in Whitaker Bank Ballpark. Among them: UK signees Taylor Martin of Lexington Catholic, Chandler Shepherd of Lawrence County and Ryan Loehnert of St. X, Western Kentucky University signee Matt Spalding of St. X, Louisville signee Mark Biggs of Warren East and Miami of Ohio signee Clay Cinnamon of Mercer County. (Matthew Honchel of Mercer County, an outfielder, also signed with Miami.)
■ Lawrence County's Chandler Shepherd didn't walk a batter in May or June. On the season he has 138 strikeouts and only eight walks. Shepherd's 40 career victories rank fifth in the state record books.
■ Players swinging the hottest aluminum bats: PRP's Cody Angus .557 (49-for-88); Clay County's John Wilson .552 (53-for-96); Central Hardin's Russ Morse .520 (52-for-100); Mercer County's Matthew Honchel .496 (59-for-119); and Clark County's T.K. Korb .491 (54-for-110).
■ Luke Guhy of Mayfield and Brady Hightchew of Newport Central Catholic quarterbacked their football teams to state titles last fall, and now they've helped their baseball teams get to Whitaker Bank Ballpark.
■ Mayfield, with a 10-16 record, should remember what Owensboro did two years ago. Those Red Devils were 10-15 after winning the region, then proceeded to win two sectional games and two state tournament games before losing to Lexington Catholic in the state finals.
