COACH’S COMMENTS
“… It was good to get another District win at home versus Prestonsburg. The girls adjusted well to the pitching. We have been preaching all year about making adjustments with the different style of pitching we see. Also had a good effort Saturday at Greenup Co. Seemed like the bats got going a little and that was good to see . As we get close to the end of the season we need to get in shape. This coming week will be busy for sure but that’s just gives us more opportunities to get better!”
