We played hard, I can?t fault any of my kids. We?re young, we battled today. We just left too many opportunities out there.

Walks come back to bite you. You've got to make them put the ball in play.

Our kids gave it everything they had today. We won three state champ­ionships today, and that's a good performance by any standards. Memorial just had a little more than we did. Our kids had another outstanding season. There's nothing wrong finishing second at the state meet.

Too many kids today are playing major league ball and don't belong there.

We were juggling kids around today, and the kids came through. As I said before, we?re going to have a team that?s versatile, that can play lots of other positions.

I think we learned a little bit ourselves today. Hopefully, the kids are starting to learn how they win matches. I think the kids enjoyed it. The competition with Columbus North was pretty good.
