The game was a little bit closer than what we thought. We ended up going with him for five innings. He threw extremely well.

I probably started getting recognized with the Prospects over the summer. Summer is different. It's more challenging because you're going against teams that have the top-rated guys in the country.

This is like a state tournament for some guys that will never experience the state tournament because of the amount of teams and quality they will face up here.

I wanted to make sure they got an inning as a workout. Both those guys might be playing on Wednesday. We haven't decided who is going to start in that game. We wanted to make sure they got one inning of work in this game situation.

It was a 4-3 match and he lost. But for a sophomore to wrestle a senior that close, we're very pleased with his performance.

It was nice to see these guys swing the bat a little bit better. To be on this side, it's a little bit more fun than being on the other side when we were at Canby. That wasn't any fun at all.

It seemed like Glover got us started in a few innings. He's swinging the bat well for us now. Both Jones' hit the ball well for us. Even guys who we made substitutions for, guys who came off the bench, they swung the bat really well. They were able to continue to add on.

That made us nervous. Were the students going to show up the next week? They did.

It's the only real pure American style of architecture.

It was an awful big win for us. I'm hoping it jump-starts us a little bit for next week. If we have a good week and happen to get two or three wins, we're in real good shape after the first round.
