It's a shame that either Shelby or Asheville won't make the state. Both are very good teams.
I’ve kept up with the games and have seen a few here and there. Both of those teams should be in it and would be better than most of the teams in it. Don’t get why only one team gets in, besides Cherryville. It’s the best division in the state every year and you let one in because they host it and then leave another team out which is better than Cherryville. Like the other poster said, it’s a shame.
But it looks like georgia doesn't have any teams this year going to regionals.so they may take 3 nc teams.
But unfortunately it’s like the burns fan said, Shelby or Asheville will left out.
Well unfortunately NC legion is run by Bobby Dale and Cherryville and no one wants to address it. It really stinks that a Shelby or an Asheville will get left out due to an average cherryville team getting an automatic bid. Cherryville has no shot at winning a state championship this year so it’s a wasted spot.
Last year's Cherryville team was not good at all. This year's team will compete much better. They've got pitching depth and they're the only team to beat Shelby this year. The host team has always made the tourney. If that wasn't the case, no one would want to host. Last year 3 Area IV teams made it because it was another Area's turn to host but no one wanted to. This year it's Area IV's turn. So only two spots available. Cherryville getting two free rides to the state and then the next two years getting two free rides to the regionals is not right though. But that's life. The only thing fair in life is a ball hit between 1st and 3rd.
BleedBurnsBlue (somebody try saying that five times real fast), I wish you wouldn't stir up all the guys towards Cherryville. There are Post 100 people reading these threads and some are pretty sensitive. You might drive them to drinking, and relatively speaking, Cherryville is a pretty dry place, at least since the Red Door closed down, and that's been a long time... If any of their old customers are still living (They would have to be 85 YOA or older), they probably don't even drink anymore, course, they probably don't drink any less, either... Consider this, there could be many Post 100 fans who would be good friends to you, and I'd venture to say you'd probably like them if given the chance...Well, maybe not... Anyway, couldn't you try being more neighborly.
Cherryville shouldn’t lose a game with the draw of Catawba County and Lincoln county guys and even the guys he gets from Rutherford
iCav, I know they got one Catawba County player, from Maiden, the catcher. Never have seen a map of areas a team can draw from, but I got a feeling that some of would encompass a lots more eligible players than Cherryville has.
Also Cherryville’s base school is Lincolnton.
Also Cherryville’s base school is Lincolnton.
Oh, also, iCav, the East Rutherford Player could live in Cherryville and is a student at East Rutherford as a result of a parent teaching there, or at least, that’s what I’m thinking.
They have 2 maiden guys the best pitcher and the catcher, they have 2 guys from east Rutherford, they even have a kid from crest it’s also been said they cherryville moved their home school to Lincoln charter to make sure they get those kids, only 5 kids on the roster that’s cherryville kids.
Seems to me they could already get Lincoln Charter players.
Thanks for the update on their players. I don’t know about the Crest player, but I’ve read your posts. I know you check things out, from a long time ago.

This roster list is not completely correct. First of all Chandler Wooten is not on the Post 100 Senior roster. He is on the Post 100 Junior roster. Also there are two players not listed here that are on the final 18 man Senior roster. They are:
Talon Dalton SS/2B Cherryville '26
Tyler Gates P/OF Lincolnton '28
As Mr. Lincolnton implied there is lots of anti-Cherryville posting going on on this thread. Also some mis-information going on as well. Sounds like a lot of sour grapes. But it is not going to drive me to drink.
First, I will address Cherryville Post 100's recruiting area and make up of this year's team. This year Post 100's base school was changed to Lincolnton High School. That means their base school is the closest base school to 5 high schools (Lincolnton, Cherryville, West Lincoln, North Lincoln, and Maiden). It is not the closest base school for East Lincoln, Lincoln Charter, Burns, Crest, or East Rutherford. However, if a player's legal domicile is in Post 100 recruiting area then they obviously can play for Cherryville no matter what high school they attend. Also, there are a couple of players on this year's roster that received valid releases from other Area IV legion teams to play for Post 100. I can assure you all the players are legal.
The folks in Cherryville don't apologize for all their efforts to impress state and national officials to get state and regional tournaments. State officials made it known that they were not happy with how tournaments were run at other NC locations in recent years and were eager to consider Cherryville. If someone wants to say Cherryville is now running NC Legion because we have been awarded state and regional tournaments by the legion decision makers, then so be it. Cherryville gained the favor of the officials by working hard to support the vision the officials had for all aspects of a successfully run tournament. Their experiences from past Cherryville run tournaments, the great commitment from the community and the city government, stadium upgrades, and attention to the fan experience were all key factors they considered.
Hosting a legion tournament takes a lot of financial support as well as volunteer support. That's why you don't have many locations putting bids in for them. You can call it unfair for the host team to get an automatic bid but no program would host the tournament otherwise. Interesting I didn't see a lot of complaints about Randolph County getting a regional for 12 consecutive years but when Cherryville gets awarded some tournaments all of sudden it's so unfair. That's OK. The folks at Post 100 know we are the most hated team in Area IV because of our past successes. I invite anyone that can make it come to the tournaments In Cherryville. We welcome your opinion and input for any improvement in how we do it.

I agree with most of everything you said......except the Randolph thing. I heard a lot of complaints about them hosting for that long. That really shouldn't be allowed in my opinion.

Might be interesting to see how the elimination rounds turns out. Got a feeling it’s headed for a grand finale. Couldn’t help but notice that Caldwell beat Shelby, Monday night, and even more noticeable it was in a close game. If Post 29 can play that much defense against Post 82 they can do it against anybody in this area. Going to be a hot summer.
