caught front great job spot sweet
She caught one out in front off the sweet spot and did a great job of getting around the bases.
counselors expect gone good join meet needs records teachers whatever
Most of these students' records are underwater, gone forever. We will make adjustments where appropriate to meet whatever needs they have. They've got good teachers and counselors to take them in. We expect them to join us and do really well.
balls base caught chase couple errors good job played problem second spot win
Second base has been a problem spot for us. Chase did a good job and caught a couple of balls there that we hadn't been getting to in games. Hannah played real well at short. No errors at all. You get no errors and you are going to win most of your games.
growing
She's just a sophomore. She's growing up every day.
armstrong character continued hit pitch spots throwing tonight
Armstrong continued to pitch real well. We showed a lot of character to come back two times when we were down. Dana hit her spots pretty well tonight and she was throwing with some velocity.
best drove good pitches taught team top
They are a very good team. Top to bottom, they are the best team in the league. They just went with the pitches like they were taught to do. They drove it in the gap.
complete gets goes hat hit pitches three
You've got to take your hat off to her (Armstrong). She goes three for three, gets the game-winning hit and pitches a complete game.
ball earned runs
That was a big strikeout. They put the ball in play, and they earned the runs they got.
ball battling playing rest takes whatever win
We know we're not out of this (playoff chase). We have to keep battling and keep doing whatever it takes to win ball games. We're playing our best, and I look for us to keep playing well the rest of the year.
despite found losing proud starter win
I was proud of our kids. They found a way to win despite losing a starter right before the game.
create ordinance unfair
I just don't want to create an ordinance that's going to be unfair to stores. That's my only concern, I don't want to create an unfair system.
almost ball capable game guy hands hard honestly kids mind played shot surprised surreal tight
I honestly was in the mind set that this was going to be a tight one (after the first quarter). I'm very surprised at the way the game evolved. It was almost surreal the way we find the guy that should have ball in his hands at the right time, and I don't think they ever really got into anything offensively. I'll give our kids credit, they played hard defensively, and I don't think Aurora shot the ball the way they're capable of tonight.
community difference proud seen steps students time
I'm proud of our students and our community. Students have seen a need and they've made a difference and the community steps up every time there's a need.
anytime early lead relaxed
The early lead relaxed us a bit. Anytime you can get on them early it really helps.
