It was good for us, and good for them. They looked good, we looked good. And we all got to do some things.
defensive double hard last nice second teams third year
There were 275 teams (in Division-II) last year and we were the No. 1 defensive team in the country. That double play was a nice way to end the game, and that was the hard way. That was third to second to first.
coming earned four freshmen gave last realizing respect second time year
The first time they gave it to us out of respect and tradition, what we had accomplished last year and what we had coming back, not realizing we had four freshmen starters. Now, the second time around, we earned it out of respect.
gone home key last national played until won year
The key last year was we didn't get to play at home. I've said it before and I'll say it until the day I die. If we had played (that tournament) at home we would have won it. And then we would have gone on to the national championships and won that, too.
