COACH’S COMMENTS
“… Proud of our guys tonight, we dropped the ball up at the HIT over the weekend lost a couple games we felt we should have won. Really good to get back into the win column. They are a good Class 3A ball club and very comparable to some of your better teams in Single A.
“…Our effort was outstanding tonight all around I thought we really flew around on defense. Austin Salmons was really good tonight, he had a tough go of it the last two games but really came back with a positive attitude and knocked down a bunch of shots and played well all around tonight, he really stretched out their defense. He was a zone buster for his.”
