We had a lot of fight in us, but we're struggling. We're in a groove and we have to get out of it, and we're not playing as well as we have or as we can. We have some young kids who are not ready to play with the big dogs, and Central is clearly a well-coached team with a ton of talent that has the confidence we would want to attain in the next couple of weeks.

We hit the ball hard. The (box score) doesn't show how well we hit the ball. I mean, we hit some nice solid shots, but with the wind blowing in they didn't look that great. I was pleased.
