We just did not play the way a varsity baseball program needs to. No one was into the game, and it was a total team effort because everyone was out there almost like they were sleeping.
baseball blessed came coach community great guide help high men program retired
Coach Powell came to help me in 1998 when he retired from teaching. He has been a great help to me ever since, and this baseball program as well as this community are very blessed to have him here to help guide these young men when they are in high school.
advantage ball bunch except left pay runner scoring
Except for two innings, we left at least one runner in scoring position. When you come up here to play this bunch in this ball park, you have to take advantage of those opportunities, because they will make you pay for it if you don't.

Even now, Coach Powell will sit me down about how I should handle situations. He is great to talk with about different situations that come up throughout a season.

Curtis Young is one of those guys who can literally play every position on the field. We are going to put him where we need him most.

We have Russell County here for Senior Night Tuesday, and we'll hopefully hit and play defense the way we did today. We've got games against good teams after that as we're trying to get ready for the playoffs, so we'll hopefully have some guys step up and fill the holes that have been left because of injuries.

We are a team that is still trying to find its identity. We are trying to find the right people to put in the right places with the right combination of people that will help us the most, but we are starting to figure that out I believe.
