8 To Keep An Eye On

Geoff Parker, Zephyrhills

What can't he do? No secret why the Seminoles desired the Bulldog pitcher.

Tyler Guy, Zephyrhills

A 6-foot-6 freshman? Dang. Was a key contributor on Dade City's Senior Little League team that had so much summer success.

Josh Debyhah, Zephyrhills

Has big shoes to fill behind the plate, but all the tools to be just fine.

Sam Donataccio, Hudson

The Cobras centerfielder hits for average and has a touch of home run power, and has to carry the Cobras.

Hunter Newton, Hudson

The freshman shortstop and son of former Gulf football coach Keith could make some noise.

Zach Maggard, Pasco

The Florida Southern signee will handle one of the top pitching staffs in the county and arguably the best in the district.

Dustin Brown, Pasco

He's one of those top pitchers, and a pretty good shortstop, too.

Kyle Trouton, Gulf

Lefty pitcher was 7-4 last year and will anchor the Bucs staff of eight this season.
