conference determined earn four next ready three tough
If you look at the conference schedule, there's going to be a lot determined here in the next three or four weeks. It's going to be tough but that's the way we want it. We want to earn everything we get. We've got to be ready to play.
boys fourth half played seventh three
We were just flat. The boys didn't play very well the first three innings. From the fourth through the seventh, we played real well. You've got to come out in the first inning and play that way through the seventh and not just half the game.
four good guys held hits lead pitching proud runners scoring solid timely took
We had two solid pitching performances, good defense, and timely hits with runners in scoring position. I was proud of our guys the first game, when we were down four and just chipped away and chipped away, took the lead and held on.
four gave power settled slow solid
He's not a power pitcher, so he's got to make them put it in play. He started slow with his first two guys, but then he settled in and gave us four solid innings.
baseball came easy kept looked mentally motions physically prepared proud ready stay telling time
I'm proud of them. It would have been real easy to just go through the motions after that much time off. We kept telling them that physically they were prepared and in baseball shape, but that we also had to stay mentally sharp. Tonight, they looked mentally sharp. They came out ready to play.
conference score wins
Two conference wins - we'll take them any way we can. We just battled back, chipped away and were able to score some more runs.
came fantastic kept strikes threw
Brandt Barnes came in and did a fantastic job. He just threw strikes and kept them off balance.
felt good heads hung life longer sorry
We just hung our heads like we felt sorry for ourselves. We no longer had those good at-bats, and the life just went out of the team.
blessed conference continue determined earn good hopefully intensity level maintain ourselves playoff position spots start state time week work year
We've put ourselves in a good position for this time of the year and we have to maintain that level of intensity that we've had and continue to play well. There are no state playoff spots determined y e t. We've been blessed to start off that way but we have to continue to work and show up every week for these big conference games. Hopefully we'll continue to play well and earn a spot.
ability behind chance combined coming good guys hitters offense scoring
You get those two guys on and then you have some pretty good hitters coming up behind them who have a good chance of scoring some runs. Those two (Wallace and Barnes) combined have been a big part of our offense because of their ability to get on. Brandt has done great.
schedule
There's not a part of our schedule where we can relax.
excellent guys high last program several strong tradition
The tradition is strong here and it's been an excellent program the last several years because of the players. Those expectations are there. The expectations are high and these guys know that.
