It's been a little curious. We didn't know who the coach would be, and we were always wondering who it would be. It was a big part of my decision if I'd come back or not.
Our biggest problem will be finding pitching. We have eight or nine pitchers, but four are sophomores.
I think I said to the players last year that they had one day to celebrate. And then they had to start concentrating and thinking about this year.
We could die from youth ... that's the bottom line. We only have one senior and three juniors and the rest are sophomores.
That's the kind of style I like - up-tempo and fast.
I think pitching will be one of our biggest problems. We'll be very young and we need someone to step up to be our number one. We only have one senior and four juniors, That concerns me. I've said we could die from our youth.
We had that losing streak after we won five in a row, and I think we kind of doubted ourselves. But we've come back and started playing again. All season, we've been in tight games, and we've been pulling some of those out now.
It's really big, to put ourselves in the No. 1 position like this. When we were down like that, I didn't see it coming.
