We expected to be competitive. We just didn't know how early we'd be able to mix it up with these guys up at the top.

We're going to be all right. We won our first region game and A.C. Flora is a really good baseball team. We got a lot of guys and we're trying to find out what we're capable of and I think we're going to get much better as the season goes along.

I told our guys, it comes at a good time when the pressure's off from region games. You can relax a little bit. It's a tune-up for the playoffs.

I just told the guys yesterday, you want to win the whole thing you've got to beat everybody. We just have to play them earlier.
