COACH’S COMMENTS
“… Its always good to start the season the way this bunch has this year. Ciana has done a great job in the circle going 3-0 only giving up one run per contest. I’m really proud of her effort and this entire group. For the first time in several years we seem to be pulling in the same direction.”
Assistant Coach Dennis Bowen
“…Hali and Abby both had great games. Hali made some really big plays on defense and was lights out at the plate. She is so versatile at the plate and very fun to watch. Hali did exactly what was asked of her each at bat.”
“…Abby did a great job behind the plate and was huge with the bat. She was just all over everything. It makes our jobs as coaches easier when you have coachable kids like these that will buy into what we’re selling.”
