Those mistakes will hurt you when you're playing good teams like West Florence. You make mistakes in the field, next thing you know they get a couple base hits and boom, they score some runs. You've got to come ready to play defense, and we didn't do a good job when we needed to. And that's the result. |

We're still trying to find ourselves hitting. We still struggle with that. But we've just got to keep working hard and hopefully things start clicking pretty soon. |
When he's out there on the mound, he's gonna give you everything he's got. Even if things aren't going well, he's gonna want to stay out there and battle through it. That's the kid of kid he is. He's got a lot of heart. |
