Jefferson County, still one of the best programs around, was THE best program in the state at that time. Even if they didn’t win a state title in a particular year, they were the Class AAA favorite to do so in baseball. In fact, when the Cougars came to Bridgeport for the regional final that day they were ranked No. 1 in the state and had a 32-5 record. Despite the Indians’ 25-5 record, the prognosticators had Jefferson already penciled in for a chance to defend its Class AAA title in Charleston. It wasn’t because Bridgeport was lucky to be in the game – far from it – it was that this was Jefferson County and in 2006, they were as automatic in Charleston in June as the Legislature being there in January – it’s just that the Cougars were more productive.
