COACH’S COMMENTS
“… Good to get two district wins under our belt early. Floyd Central seems to always play us tough through the years.”
“… In Game 1 we came out rolling and seem to just take our foot off the petal offensively. Credit them for chipping away and we were fortunate to come out with a win on the road.”
“… Game 2 I thought Jake did a great job on the mound of attacking the strike zone and we took care of business pretty quick. We had double digit hits in both games and really found a lot of barrels up and down the lineup.”
“… I believe when the season gets settled in this will be a very dynamic and dangerous offensive ball club.”
