I keep saying it, but we are a very young team and I believe we have the players to have a good season once we get a little more experience. I thought the way we finished the tournament showed that we can compete.

This loss is a really tough one to take. We get guys in scoring position and then can't get the big hit to put runs on the board. Very frustrating.

Adam has thrown three great games in a row and certainly didn't deserve to lose this one. They way he battled out of jams early on and kept us in the game is a tribute to the type of competitor he is.

You would think the word would be out that you don't want to run on this kid.

We had the bases loaded three times and get one run out of it. We need to get some guys to step up and get the big clutch hits when we need them.

Kyle was actually throwing real well but it was obvious the Buchanan batters were leaning into both those pitches. That's baseball and I don't blame then for doing what it takes to get on base but the umpires need to be strong enough to see what is happening and make the right call.
