Auburn High School Baseball

They play for a state championship next weekend vs. Hoover I think. They swept Central-PC at their place this weekend, who were a great baseball team as well.

Back in my time with rotary phones and horses and buggies the roles were reversed. Central was the juggernaught. AHS won a baseball state championship when I was a freshman, but we finished second in the area all but one year to Central when I actually played varsity. Great baseball program in their own right.

Coach Cimo is a neighbor down in Auburn. Great guy and has some fantastic minor league stories from his playing days. The interesting thing about Cimo is that he hates travel baseball and how many games that are played. His philosophy is that you get better in practice and in drills.
