iHigh Top 100: Naming Kentucky's Top High School Baseball Players

May 13, 2011

News from iHigh.com


Lexington, KY -- iHigh.com has released the midseason edition of the Kentucky high school baseball Top 100 player rankings, as voted by coaches and media members from around the state. The mid-season edition names the top 50 players at mid-season and lists others in the running for the season final vote of the Top 100.

Chandler Shepherd, a pitcher from Lawrence County, tops the list. While elbow surgery forced the 6-2, 190-pound senior to step away from the mound last season, he still managed to bat over .500. Shepherd, who was named a TPX Louisville Slugger High School All-American earlier this year, has signed to play his college baseball at the University of Kentucky.
