COACH’S COMMENTS
“… We didn’t play very well against PCC we jumped up 6-0 in the first and took the foot off the throttle.”
“… Worked all summer and fall on infield drills and trying different things but they just heal every ball. Our outfield has been our bright spot so far.
“… Mackenzie Methax should have beat Johnson Central but We couldn’t field the ball.”
“…Alli Triplett and Abby Nelson were both bright spots against Pike Co. Central.”
