COACH’S COMMENT
“… Coming into the season we were thinking 14-15 wins and that was before we lost our top three pitchers. To do what we have done so far is pretty amazing.” It really shows what type of kids we have and our depth as a program as well.” Nobody has shied away from being on the mound and that will only help us down the road. All but two of our kids have been on the mound this season.”
“…Really good win for us vs Fairview their record doesn’t show what kind of team they have. Their schedule is brutal. We had a couple of tough ones the last two nights and our kids really battled after falling behind.” Really proud of them.”
