Super proud of @Smitty__54 ! He played in the Washington All State Game in Yakima. He played great- looked great and won a Merit Scholarship Award for his hard work and leadership at LCHS! Thanks to Coach Weiss for all his support! Go get’m Smitty!!
Proud of these Wildcats!! Another great season! @Smitty__54 was 5-0 wins and 1.71 era, .186 BAA, and a .888 WHIP pitching. Thanks to all the coaches and trainers in this journey! Now off to summer ball and college!
1A District Baseball: La Center 11, Eatonville 1.
Justin Fuller goes 3 for 3 with a triple. Smith Stimmel with a three-RBI double and eight strikeouts over six innings on the mound.
La Center advances to a winner-to-state semifinal tomorrow against Hoquiam or King's Way.
1A Trico League Baseball: La Center 12, Castle Rock 2.
Wyatt Bethje goes 3 for 3 with three RBI for the Wildcats. Caden Taylor and Smith Stimmel each go 2 for 4.
Some things I wish I understood sooner:
• Eliminate BB’s by eliminating 3 ball counts by forcing action in 2 ball counts.
• Velocity is just a piece to the puzzle.
• Strength training is HUGE.
• Arm path.
• Change up tricks.
• Honest self evaluation.
• The controllable’s.
First game of Senior Season in the books! @Smitty__54 rocked the mound and a Sac Fly bomb!
5 innings, 8 strikeouts, 2 BB, 0 ERuns- pitched 69/47. Lets Go LC!!
So appreciative of LCHS, AD Matt Cooke and Coach Weiss for all the support for Smith as he signs the next step in his baseball life. Thanks to the team mates that showed up to support him as well! Looking forward to WWCC - pitching for the Warriors!
