giving nominating russell selecting teenagers year youth
Russell is one of the most mature, thoughtful, giving teenagers I have ever met. In my 6 1/2 years here, nominating and selecting the individuals, he has to be the most outstanding youth of the year we have selected.
awhile butler coach felt finished great hit last monkey todd year
It felt like the monkey is off my back. When I hit that ball, it was a great feeling. Coach Butler (hitting coach Todd Butler) told me, 'You can't go 0- for-the-rest-of-your-life.' I know that. I experienced it last year. I was 0 for awhile then finished the year strong.
change plan year
We can plan what we'll change this year but it's done on a continual basis.
building extra minimum three time torn year
We told him a long time ago that the building had to be torn down and he'd get a minimum of three years' notice. He actually got an extra year out of it.
great huge last pressure season winning year
Last year was huge for us. I think it has put a little pressure on this year's team. But that's all right. We had our first winning season last year and it was just a great year.
aggressive attacking bad ball connecting good hitting pitches seeing swinging trying year
She's been hitting the ball most of the year and she has good at-bats and bad at-bats, but I think she's seeing the ball very well for the most part. Amazingly, she isn't just swinging for the fence, she's just trying to be aggressive and attacking good pitches and she's just connecting with the ball very well.
fun last people pressure qualified qualify year
Baron went (to state) last year. As he said all year it'd be a lot more fun if he had people going with him. So put the pressure on him. He's got to qualify in the 100 and get some relays qualified with him also.
statement year
The only statement we've made this year is it's anybody's state championship to win.
anyone based bigger cost cover derived hopefully income loved meet might move people simply somewhere ticket turn year
We would have loved to move to the bigger arena, simply to accommodate hopefully more people so we don't have to turn anyone away at a high-profile game. The cost is just prohibitive. Based on the income that we've derived each year from ticket sales, it wouldn't be enough to cover the rent. It wouldn't even be close. . . . I thought (the estimate) might be somewhere where we could meet and negotiate, but it wasn't even in the ballpark.
company excess grown million year
We have grown from a company that did $5 (million) to $7 million a year 18 years ago to one that now does in excess of $60 million a year.
award community eagle extremely giving hard kids players positive projects proud service sponsors summer thank winners worked year
We are so proud of our Eagle Award winners and our championship teams. All of the GBA players worked extremely hard this year on their community service projects and on the court. We thank our sponsors for giving these kids a positive summer activity.
against correct division excuse last league next played successful teams understand win won year
You're not going to be very successful in this league if you can't win in your own division. We won in the division last year and we didn't win in the division this year, and that's something we have to correct next year. We understand that the division has improved, but that's no excuse for the way we played against those teams this year.
couple extensive joe men missing newspaper people roger send town year
There were a couple of men in town who had extensive records, Roger Jarvais and Joe Penley. People would see a year was missing and send me newspaper clippings or some information.
against beat break catch ended far game last mean meant ourselves playoffs prove season starting wonder year
As far as the standings go, this game didn't mean much. But it meant a lot to us, just to prove to ourselves and to everyone else that we could beat them. They beat us this year, last year and ended our season in the playoffs last year. So we were starting to wonder when we were going to catch a break against those guys. That's why this game is so big for us.
