COACH’S COMMENTS
“… We had a good group this year but just couldn’t get over the hump. We will have a great group of seniors next year with Luke Williamson, Bray Mollette, Gage Dawson Jeremy Vanhoose and Cam Perkins who we lost for the year because of an injury during basketball season.”
“… We made some mistakes that cost us big time. Couldn’t make a couple routine plays defensively and really didn’t take advantage of their pitching as much as we wanted.”
“… But we have a good group of freshmen coming up next year and we will be working over the summer and the fall in the weight room, field work and play some games. And I will have someone coming in to help with pitching and batting as well.”
