I believe Stevenson Show case was this weekend. Anybody really standout or look very good?

I was impressed by the pitching in the North Suburban conference - knew we had lot of quality pitchers, but seeing them back-to-back-to-back like that was really impressive.

The North Surburban is stacked with pitching! Stevenson has 3 great pitchers in firth, Robin, and Sorkin. Libertyville also has two studs in Barton and McDowell. And the big suprise for me was even Zion and Wacaunda had a pitcher that threw pretty well!

Stevenson Showcase Scouting notes: Great scouting turnout: Notre Dame, Creighton, Purdue, heavy East Coast presence, lots of D1's and 2's.

NCSAS - Where did you get 60 times? Haven't seen anything posted on the website yet.

Times were posted for all to see at the field yesterday

Where? Looked for it, but didn't see it... guess we'll have to wait to see them on the website.

chase medown ran a 6.45 60

So, times are posted - NCSAS, none of your top three are even listed in the times, let alone at the top. So I'll ask again - where did you get your times? The fastest time listed is 6.90 and you have four players with a faster time than the fastest posted time...

There were also a few who ran who apparently got no official time.

The times posted on the website are missing quite a few times. I know of at least 5 other players that had under 6.9, and the times that NCSAS posted are 100% correct as I saw the list posted AT Stevenson. Brett Kay did run a 6.58, the fastest along with the other 3 he listed are correct.

As far as the list on the site missing several players, I don't know.

I agree with spinit2. I saw several guys with lower times. Also, I just checked and my son is not listed. So the list is definitley incomplete. NCSAS seems correct.

What is the website where you can find the info?

find it here

My kid is not listed either so there appears to be more than one kid NOT on the list. Maybe they typed it in too fast.

I know of another player not listed that supposedly ran a 6.8. I counted 115 players with and without times and there were 141 players on the rosters. Seems like a few are missing. They still haven't posted rosters for this weekends Plainfield showcase.

Something obviously happened, as there are players who did run who have no times posted, and at least one that I know for sure did NOT run who has a posted time. Maybe they'll get it fixed... not a huge deal.

As should your icon picture.

Looks like they're working on fixing the posted times on the website - all of the irregularities that I could see are now corrected.

Mythree, 60's posted at field. Plainfield Showcase up next.
