excited job mistakes tools
He is young, will make some young mistakes but has all the tools to do an outstanding job and I am really excited about him, also.
looks outfield start transfer
It looks like Alfonso Carrillo will start in the outfield and Dane Houser, a transfer from Marist, will also start.
chances complete game kids missed signs themselves took
Missed opportunities. We had our chances and we didn't execute. We didn't play well today. We missed a lot of signs and the kids took themselves out of a lot of innings. We need to play a complete game and we haven't done that.
happy talent
At the varsity and JV level, we have a lot of talent and I am very happy about it.
coach deepest excited head kids quality season seniors since starting three time
This is the most excited I have ever been starting a new season and this is the deepest roster of quality kids I have ever had. This is going to be the first time since I have been a head coach that I can start three seniors on the mound, so I am really excited about that.
earn point reason signs view
It is frustrating from a coaches' point of view and there is a reason they are losing. You give signs out there and they say they don't see them. No one is going to give us a game, they are going to have to earn it.
blame guess players ready
We all have to take the blame for this one. As players and coaches, we have to look in the mirror. I thought we would be up and ready for this game, but I guess not.
close games hope lost turn wins
We lost a lot of close games and we hope to turn those close games into wins this year.
asking kids last maturity older responsibility strength year
We are asking the kids to take more responsibility for conditioning and strength this year. Last year we didn't have the maturity and this year we will be older and smarter.
hitting year
We haven't been hitting all year long and I don't know why right now. That has to change.
excited good pitching prospects
The pitching prospects really look good and I am very excited about that.
