Rebels open district
The West Monroe Rebels, fresh off a weekend tournament where they won 3-of-4 games, are in good position to start the District 2-5A season, a season in which a new format will be unveiled.
With only four teams in the district, the coaches developed a schedule which would be competitive and helpful at the same time.
The four-team district of the Rebels, Ruston, Ouachita and Natchitoches Central will play each other five times to determine the district champion.
The format will give the district a clear path to the district title and the playoffs.
"This is something new," said West Monroe head coach Mark Sims. "We've got to get the district games in."
Teams will be seeded at the end of the season prior to the start of the playoffs with a vote of the coaches in each classification (1A-5A and B-C).
"It ought to be interesting," Sims said about the playoff system.
Last season, the Rebels advanced to the 5A-state championship game before falling to Jesuit by a 4-2 margin.
"We're playing pretty good right now," Sims said. "We've just come off a tournament where we won 3-of-4."
The Rebels begin the district play with a 3-game series against Ruston on Tuesday.
They play Natchitoches Central for three games beginning April 1, then take on Ouachita for three games beginning April 6.
The last game before the playoffs is against Ouachita on Thursday, April 24. |
