Famous Quotes & Sayings

Don Buford

As a team, we had a real good spring. Guys swung the bats real well, then all of a sudden everybody went into a slight batting slump together and right now they seem to be working their way out of that and hitting the ball consistently.

Other coaches have said to me it looks like our offense goes through him most of the time. And it does. At some point he has to touch the ball and every coach knows that. They are coming out to try and stop it, so Tyler has to work especially hard on the offensive end to keep people from stopping him.

Riley Wallace
