'Reflections... Remembering The Senior Class Of 2006' The Class Of '06 was stocked with a group of outstanding senior athletes, that will be remembered as the group, that set the standard(s) for all of the classes that will follow them... While they didn't capture a region championship -- finishing as the Region 4-AA Runner-Ups to the perennial Class-AA Juggernaut, that is The Pike Co. Pirates -- the Trojan Seniors did finish with an outstanding 21-5 record on the 2006 Season. All of them were outstanding players in their own right(s). Several of them still hold individual & career records. Two of the top Pitchers to come thru the Trojans Program were Kyle Brown & Chad Andrews. Brown signed a scholarship to continue his pitching career with the Emmanuel College Lions, while Andrews still holds the individual & career records for Most Wins In A Season (9) & Career (16). Andrews, also, claims the record for the Most Ks In A Season with (83) & Ks In A Career with (155). The '06-Bunch', also, had a roster that was composed of some senior players that could have been referred to, as 'The Lumber Co'. Seniors that assaulted the record books were Matt Dyal -- Most HRs In A Season (5) & Career (8), Kelly Piper -- Most Hits Career (92), RBIs Career (70), & Doubles Career (20), Ron Fletcher -- Most RBIs Season (30) & Triples Season (6), & Kyle Brown -- Slugging % Season (.714) & Doubles Season (11). All of the above pitching & hitting records still stand... Defensively, the '06 Team was led by Senior-Shortstop, Hugh Strickland, whom many observers in the region loop considered as the top player at that position. Senior Outfielder, Logan Hooks, was a steady defensive-presence in Centerfield, and a good stick, offensively. Disclaimer... The above achievements of the '06 players are documented on the website's RECORDS page, which can be found by clicking-on the RECORDS tab in the navigation panel at the top of this page. Any other accolades that are mentioned are soley the opinion(s) of the author of this article...

The new 6,000 Sq. Ft. Indoor Hitting & Training Facility is 90% completed... What an awesome facility!!! It looks even better in 'real time'. There will be a delay in getting into the new facility, until 'turf' flooring can be installed... Financial constraints will have to be resolved, before the facility can become fully occupied & functional...
Trojans Baseball Tidbits Work is continuing on readying the new IHTF (Indoor Hitting & Training Facility) for the fast-approaching baseball season. School maintenance personnel were busy with electrical installations on Friday, Jan. 15th. Also, workers with Championship Field Turf, Inc. edged & trimmed the entire perimeter of the infield, applied 40 tons of the same premium clay & conditioner that is used on the Atlanta Braves infield at Turner Field in Atlanta. And, then laser-graded the playing surfaces. Coach Williams says... "It is in excellent playing condition and looks real sharp." Six Trojan Players attended the 2010 GSSU (Georgia Southwestern State University) High School Prospect Camp in Americus on Monday, Jan. 18th. Players from several high schools across the state attended the event, as well. Scouts were expected to be in attendance from Middle Georgia College, South Georgia College, ABAC, Brewton Parker College, Georgia College & State University, Andrew College, Darton College, Auburn University of Montgomery, Gordon College, & Southern Polytechnic State University. Trojan Players attending the camp were Trent Nix, Marc English, Mike Sneed, Devin Couch, Bailey Thompson, & Gavin Lance.
