Eric Carlson dives for the ball @ Harry & David Field (5/15/14)

@ahs_baseball @eric9carlson @ADTsports

This photo sequence is somewhat symbolic of the AHS season. What started out so promising (14 wins in a row) has recently slipped down the left field line (3-4 in last 7 games). However, the season isn’t over. With a doubleheader sweep @ Eagle Point tomorrow (5/17/14), the Grizzlies should have one of the top seeds in the state championship tournament. A mere 6-game winning streak to end the season is what the Grizzlies really need.

Carter Glick – Ashland High School Baseball

@ahs_baseball Ashland won today over Grants Pass 5-0. With Ashland committing no errors and Glick walking no one, that one hit was the only thing keeping this from being a perfect game. That’s 14 wins in a row for AHS.

AHS Baseball – Tommy Hulick

I’ll never understand the OSAA ranking system. The Ashland High School baseball team (previously ranked #1 in 5A) extended its winning streak to 12 straight games by winning both games of today’s doubleheader in dominating fashion. Meanwhile, #2 ranked Bend lost two of their three games this week (to a 4A team no less), but they move up in the rankings to #1 above Ashland.

AHS baseball – Max Montgomery

@ahs_baseball …but first they must get win #11. It’s a doubleheader at North Mountain Park vs. North Valley (Grants Pass). First game starts at noon.

North Mountain Park (Ashland, Oregon)

@ahs_baseball Ashland High School, currently ranked #1 in the state of Oregon at the 5A level and having defeated the previously #1 ranked 6A team, goes for their 10th straight victory against 6A Roseburg in Ashland today at 4:30. Even though Roseburg isn’t ranked in the Top 10 for 6A teams, beating any 6A team is not easy for a 5A school. This should be a good game.

Ashland High School Baseball – Tommy Hulick

So I mentioned last week that Ashland High School was going up against the #1 ranked 6A team in the state. AHS won thanks to the shutout thrown by Tommy Hulick! 6A teams aren’t supposed to lose to 5A teams, especially when they are ranked #1. What does this mean? Does Ashland High School have the best team in the state regardless of size? Maybe. Today they go up against 4A Klamath Union in Ashland at 4:30. Another win will further pad their #1 ranking in the 5A OSAA category.
