1. Barbers Hill (5A)
Head Coach: Aaron Fuller
Barbers Hill brings back more weapons than SEAL Team 6 with a cadre of junior talent that HC Aaron Fuller will enjoy for two more seasons. The Lady Eagles bring back two all-state players in Jessica Mullins (2018) and Samantha Landry (2019) and will throw in co-district MVP Sophia Simpson just for good measure. There is "loaded for bear" and then there is Barbers Hill.
The Hill brings five legitimate aces and through 13 games the Lady Eagles are 12-1 and their team ERA is .092.
