We just did not hit and play defense like I know we can. We committed six errors that led to six unearned runs. Auburn came in and played great. I have to give them credit.
against ahead backs complete expect pitchers played region tough wall work
This is a tough region that we play. We can't put our backs against the wall like this and expect to win. They made our pitchers work and got ahead in the counts. They played a complete game.
again ball classic guys hit pitching played proud second six stayed straight week winning
I am very proud of my guys for winning the Boll Weevil Classic for the second straight year. It was a long week in which we played six games, but they stayed focused. We hit the ball really well this week and once again our pitching was outstanding.
learn playoff proud second team teams
While I am proud of the win, it should not have come down to this. We have got to learn how to put a team away when we have the lead. If we are to make a playoff run, we can't give teams second chances.
course four game good guy knocking losing plate production runs scoring three
Without him, we were good for three or four errors. Of course when you have a guy at the plate that is scoring two or three runs a game and is knocking in two or three, you are losing four-five runs of production without him.
defense glad region
We did not play defense well. We are going to have to get a whole lot better when we get back into region play. I am glad to get the win, but we made too many errors.
chance further great last plenty work
We feel we have a great chance to get back where we were last year. We can also go even further with plenty of work and dedication.
coming defense difference pitching team
We really didn't know a whole lot about this team coming into the game. We were a little off at the plate. Our defense and pitching made a difference for us to win.

Our overall sports program is losing a great athlete. He is one of the better athletes to come out of here in a long time. He has meant a lot to this school.

I was proud of the way we hung in there and fought. It's always good to get a win in regional play.

Our guys are just playing great baseball right now. Things can always change in the blink of an eye, but I think this bunch will stay focused and take this season one game at a time.
ahead ball few games happening hitters job last pitchers result run support
Our pitchers need to do a better job getting ahead in counts. Our hitters have to give them some run support for us to win. In the last few ball games that hasn't been happening and the result has not been good.
counted guys help season week
Our young guys got to play a lot this week and that will help us down the road. It is a long season and you never know when one of those guys will be counted on to come in and make plays.
