■ Rock Bridge's Miles, Phillips make All-State (Columbia Tribune)

Miles, a Missouri signee, established himself as the ace of the Rock Bridge staff by posting a 6-0 record and 1.14 ERA despite facing many of the toughest opponents. Besides his team-leading ERA, Miles also led Rock Bridge in innings pitched (43) and strikeouts (61) while walking only seven.
. . .
Phillips actually led the Bruins with a 7-0 pitching mark to improve his school-record win total to 21, but he was equally valuable in the field as a shortstop and at the plate as a leadoff batter. He collected a school-record 43 hits to top the Bruins with a .473 average. Perhaps the most impressive statistic posted by the Missouri commitment was that he struck out only twice in 108 plate appearances.
