(Matt) Miller did a nice job pitching. The wind was blowing hard to left and he really settled down in the middle innings for us. |
He's one of the better ones you'll see. Daniel Bennett threw well this week, too. And Steve (Phillips) has done a good job in the bullpen. |
I think that nine of the top-10 runners are back from last year. So you'll see at least one really strong runner almost every race. |
If we had not have dropped the fly ball it might have been a different story in the first. I would feel comfortable starting him again. |
It was a good game between two good teams. (Matt) Miller threw really well for his first start. |
It's very competitive at the top. |
Pitching should be one of our strengths. We have a lot of depth. |
That's one of the best individual performances you'll see out of a right fielder in high school. |
They're high school kids. We're just a little off our game right now. We'll go have to good practices and start coming around. |
Thirty pitches. That was three innings last week and one today. |
Those guys are in the part of the order where we can do that. Dane did a good job. Unfortunately, he hurt his finger doing that, but if anybody can come back from that, it's him. |
To come back after the tough loss in the first game, we needed that. |
We didn't really look at one of our goals as to win this meet, but it's nice. Zack Buxton's hard work over the summer paid off. I think some of the other guys are in a little better shape than they thought. |
We talked the other day and some of our goals are close to the same. We'd like to be fighting for the conference championship. Mount Zion is going to be tough. They won it last year and have everybody back, but we want to be in it until the end. We have a lot of guys to replace, but these guys have been pretty successful in the past and they are working hard. |
Wilson got a big strikeout and he was the key to the game. |
