"It has been a rough year for us with regards to injuries for sure ... with Bious, Chialtas and Small out it takes out 3 high level lefties and our best defenders in their respective positions ... this does not make us incapable of winning it just makes the margin for error smaller ... we have been getting solid play from Newman, Dunlap and Hernandez which should give us a chance to win if we can keep the game close ... We could did not do that with Seminole Saturday ... they got out in front of us early in both games and although we competed hard and mounded a come back we could overcome the runs given up ... we also have Nace down right now and he was beginning to make a move for us as s starting pitcher ... hey, when you make mistakes to good hitters they hit the ball hard ... we need to do better and we will ... We hope we can get back to full strength by the Region II Tournament ... if we do they we will be a test for anyone ... "  RW20
