2018 HS TEAM PREVIEW: HERRON ACHAEANS

Head Coach: Rusty Hughes

Class: 3A
2017 Record: 6-10
Conference (2017 Record):  Independent  
Returning Starters/Pitchers: 6/2

2018 Team Strengths:

  • Speed/Aggressiveness
  • Hitting

Top Players: 

  • Jude Morey, 1B, 2019: 2 year starter, team captain, .467 BA
  • Dax Colby, SS/RHP, 2020
  • Xavier Garmon, OF, 2019: .314 BA

Outlook: Coach Hughes expects improvement in 2018.  For the first time he'll have five players that also play travel baseball, where in year's past only has a couple.  The Achaeans are still young, but they have talent.  With sectional realignment the Achaeans have a good chance of earning their first sectional victory in program history.
