We have a game recap on the High School Blog and will have more on the outstanding matchup between Clint Frazier's Loganville High and Austin Meadows' Grayson High later this week. To whet your appetite, here is footage of Frazier's first home run on the evening—an epic, three-run blast to put Loganville up 6-3, on their way to winning 14-4.

Posted by Cubs Notes 3/13: McLeod a GM candidate?, Frazier hits 2 bombs, Baker pitches 3 innings | Cubs Den | March 13, 2013 at 12:00 am | ShortcutAs billed, the match up between Loganville and Grayson was classic with Frazier getting the better end of the stick. The kids, both Frazier and Meadows are outstanding. But one little know and unpublicitized point is there is yet another school in Loganville, Georgia that plays baseball. A small, private, Christian School, Covenant Christian Academy is geographically between Grayson and Loganville. Covenant is the defending ICSGA State Champion who boasts some great talent as well. Senior Michael Barton and Sophomore Isiah Gilliam are no slouch in comparison to the others. Covenant touts three Sophomore pitchers who all stand 6'-2" plus and throw into the upper 80's. Covenant's non conference games are all the highest level GISA schools who will actually put them on the schedule. April 4th-10th they will travel to Jacksonville, FL to match up with Bolles and Episcopal in a round robin format just to get stronger competition. Make no mistake, the kids in Loganville, Georgia play second fiddle to no one on the baseball diamond.
