I would imagine with his bat, he would have been somewhere in our lineup last year. We thought we might have seven sophomores in the lineup until he came, and he's done a great job so far. |
It was a great way to start. |
It's real good right now, and if the storm is out of here by Wednesday it will be fine for Saturday. We will try to keep it firm. It will have some give. You only get a hard course when the weather is hot and dry. |
Now we're getting timely hitting and that's what I feel good about now. The defense isn't where it needs to be to do well in the County tournament, but each game these kids have to grow, and right now we're doing that. |
The track is in excellent shape. Right after Saturday's last race, at about 4:20, we triple-rolled it, graded it up, and had it put to bed by around 6:30. We were able to let it lay, and the cover of snow insulated it. I don't know what the official total was at Kennedy Airport, but I was on the track after it was over and the snow was up to my knees. I'd say it was at least 18 inches, probably more like 20. |
We'll have the ark built by midnight tonight. We're only letting horses on. |
We're expecting a lot of rain and it should be windy. Right now, we're pounding down the dirt. If we keep it good and tight, we'll be all right when it passes. |
