COACH’S COMMENTS
“… So proud and happy for all of the girls. This has been a long time coming. We got close against Huntington St. Joe and I knew we would get one soon. They have been putting in the work to get better and it slowly paying off. We got good pitching and some big hits as well. The credit goes to the girls and my coaching staff.”
