an intimate voice with wonderful pathos. |
At one point in the season we lost five straight games. I think at that point most people in the section thought we were done. We didn't pack it in. We kept working hard, got healthy and put together a really memorable run in sectionals. We equaled the most wins our program has ever had in sectionals. |
I looked him in the eye and asked if he wanted it, and without hesitation he said yes. He wanted it, and he took it, and as teammates they backed him up. |
I wish we could have put them away a little earlier, but Santa Fe put up a fight, man. We never broke their spirit. They just kept coming at us with a lot of heart. |
I'm not happy at all. All that was was a win, nothing more. I was very disappointed. |
I'm not really frustrated so much as I am concerned. Overall, we're OK, but there are some holes that we need to fix. |
I've never seen a game like this. Well, not since I was like 10. |
If you look at the season stats, we're about even (with opponents) in hits, but in earned runs we've actually allowed fewer. But we are way up in errors. |
In districts it's going to come down to defense, it's as simple as that. We definitely have some chinks in our armor that we have to get fixed, but you have to remember that even though we're 17 games into the season, these are still high school kids and we still have to coach. You just hope they get it soon. |
It was a big win for us. Here's a team we got beat by 20 last time. On senior night - it will be the last time we'll be at home - it was a big win. The kids played great. |
Like I always say, defense wins games. Today once we settled down, we made a lot of big plays. |
Money, the root of all evil... but the cure for all sadness. |

Overall, I was pleased with our effort today. We handled ourselves well on both sides of the ball. |
She hit two threes that really hurt us. |
