As we prepare for the upcoming 2015 high school season, we will be taking a preseason glimpse at programs from around the state.

Team: Patrick County
Nickname: Cougars
Class/Division: 3A West
District/Conference: 32/Piedmont
Head Coach: Matt Mabe
Twitter Handle: N/A
2014 Overall Record: 7-14
2014 Post-Season Finish: Lost in Dist. Semi/Conf. Semi

TOP RETURNERS (Commit)
Tucker Brown, 2B, 2015
Cole Helms, RHP/UT, 2015
Cody King, CF, 2015
Brandon Turner, LHP/1B, 2015
Patrick Turner, Catcher, 2015
Eli Horton, SS/DH, 2016

Other Players of Interest for the Cougars:  Austin Vernon (RHP/3B, 2017)

Outlook:
Patrick County is coming off of a down 2014 that saw their season end in the Conference Semifinals. The 2015 Cougars look to be better as they return a large portion of their line-up and a couple of arms. The line-up will be led by Patrick Turner (C, 2015), Eli Horton (MIF, 2016), Cody King (OF, 2015), Cole Helms (UT/RHP, 2015) and Tucker Brown (MIF, 2015). The pitching staff will be led by Brandon Turner (LHP/1B, 2015) and Helms. Patrick County will be a strong pitching and defense team that will need to produce consistently on offense in order to compete this year in Conference 32 or the 3A West.
