We had a couple of opportunities, but give Kelsey Ruitenberg credit. She made some nice pitches and got a couple of strikeouts when we had a runner on third.

I really think that we lost this game in the first few innings. We did a nice job getting people into scoring position, but we didn't come up with the hits when we really needed them.

She's back in her element now and she's happy, has a smile on her face. She's not one that likes to sit and watch, she just wants to get out there and play.

Over the next three years, we're basically going to attack every part of West Circle Drive.

For a bunch of young kids, I thought we played real good. We had opportunities. We had a chance but just didn't come through with that key hit.

East Aurora handled our trap (defense), and they went to the boards. I knew we had to play well (to win). We knew they were an improved team.
