We didn't play hard. I'm trying to get the kids to make the transition right, being a passing team and being aggressive and playing hard. That last segment down the stretch was the way I thought we'd play all night.

We're trying to find that right balance so that kids don't play too much baseball but don't play too little. We hope that we ' re offering them good value.

Some of the younger kids are nervous and the older kids are trying to lead them the right way. Every season is exciting because of the different personalities. Hopefully we'll find our way and find what we do best.

We don't have tremendous size. We have a couple of big guys, but we have a lot of smaller guys. We're gonna use our depth and our speed and hope for the best.

Trey stepped up tonight, gave us a leader, somebody to follow. We used our depth, and we were fortunate enough to wear them down over the course of the game.

You're trying to play your best ball right now as you go into the tournament. I really think we are. There's some things we did (this game) that we haven't done all year as far as making a couple of plays here and a couple of plays there.
