In the season opener, it wasn't typical Brian. He came back last night. He pitched great. He came back after a so-so outing versus Marshall.

The [Jefferson] infield and outfield were [playing] in. He just smoked one right up the middle.

We didn't compete. Bottom line. From what we have been playing in the last three games, we didn't compete tonight. I'm not mad we lost. I'm mad we didn't compete. There's a difference.

Our goal is for everyone to be a hard out. Everyone contributed. All of them were tough outs.

No matter what the score is, they've now been in that situation. They now can say we've been there before and we can come back.

I'm sure in some form they'll be tough. Jefferson comes from the Concorde, which is great in baseball. I'm sure both will impact our district.
