Two former Paducah-area high school star pitchers, Louisville's Gabriel Shaw and Middle Tennessee's Chad Edwards, could face one another in the NCAA tournament regional at Louisville this weekend.
Shaw has been the workhorse in Louisville's bullpen, leading the team in appearances and relief innings, while going 3-1 with a 3.75 ERA and three saves. Edwards has been both a mid-week and weekend starter for the Blue Raiders, going 8-1 with a 5.99 ERA for a team that swept the regular-season and tournament titles in the Sun Belt Conference.
Louisville, which won both the Big East regular-season championship and tournament, takes on Indiana in its first-round game, with Middle Tennessee meeting a Vanderbilt club with which it's split two contests this season. Edwards threw a complete-game six-hit shutout against the Commodores on April 7.
