1. River Bluff (5-0)
Last Week - 1 

- The Gators have scored 39 runs in 5 games and only allowed 2.  Clemson recruits Alex Urban and Ricky Williams are off to red hot starts and the rest of the team is following suit. 

2. Boiling Springs (5-1)
Last Week - 7

- Winning the IP Classic is a great way to start the season and this well rounded Bulldogs team can win in several different ways. The pitching staff is deep and the offense can explode at any time. Davis Brown is off to a solid start and the pitching staff will only get better as the season goes on. 

3. T.L. Hanna (5-0)
Last Week - 4

- The TL Hanna offense has been rolling early and 2021 Luke Johnson has turned in two quality starts to lead the pitching staff. A quality win last week over a good JL Mann team has this team trending in the right direction. 

4. Dutch Fork  (3-1)
Last Week - 2

- Dutch Fork went 2-1 in NaturChem action before beating Irmo. The first real challenge for this group will
come this week when they open up with Chapin. Sam Hatcher is 2-0 on the mound and Bryan Helms
has been productive at the plate early on.

5. Riverside (4-2)
Last Week - 3

- 2 wins over Mauldin were a nice rebound for the Warriors after a 2-2 effort at the IP Classic.
Presbyterian College recruit Landon Shaw ended last week 5 for 8 with 5 runs, 3 RBIs, 2 2Bs,
and a walk to pace the offense.

6. Fort Mill (7-0)
Last Week - NR

- The Yellow Jackets have scored an astounding 70 runs in route to a 7-0 start. Flagler recruit JT Marr and
UNCC recruit Connor Manco have paced the offense so far, but the biggest challenge to date is waiting in
region rival Nation Ford.

7. JL Mann (4-2)
Last Week - 5

- College of Charleston recruit Peyton Nelson and uncommitted 2020 Caleb Freeman turned in two
quality starts and UNC recruit Tomas Frick homered to lead the Patriots to a 4-1 record in The Battle of
the Piedmont before dropping a game to TL Hanna last week.

8. Dorman (3-1-1)
Last Week - 10

- The Cavaliers went 1-1-1 in the NaturChem tournament before winning a pair of games last week against
Byrnes and Union County. TJ White and Russell Parry are off to solid starts for Dorman will make for
added fire power around Kentucky recruit Dylan Rogers in that lineup.

9. Hillcrest (5-0)
Last Week - NR

- The Rams downed Spartanburg and Woodmont last week to follow up a 3-0 effort in The Battle of the
Piedmont. College of Charleston recruit Trotter Harlan has been getting it done at the plate and on the
mound for the Rams so far.

10. Blythewood - (3-3)
Last Week - 8

- The Bengals finished the IP Classic 2-2 and split a two game set with a talented Lexington team. The Citadel recruit John Lanier will look to continue his strong start this week as Blythewood hosts a trio of non-region games. Westwood (Mon.), Clover (Thurs.), and Mauldin (Sat.).
