Athens Drive is the Cap9 #2. The Jaguars, state runners-up in 1999, are legitimate title contenders, again. Their potent offense is paced by the bats of Division I recruits Jake Hall (SS, Georgia Tech) and Cameron Mitchell (P/C, Brown). Other noteworthy players include Hall's brother, sophomore Mickey (P/1B), Karl Buer and Adam Paul (both P/C) and junior Hilton Pittman (OF), a Baseball Factory All-American. Athens Drive's defense, though, at times has been suspect. The Jaguars' chances of reaching and winning the championship series will hinge on their ability to play stellar defense for four consecutive games.
