I used to come down and polish John Wayne because I was proud he was here and proud to be here. Not anymore.

We had a couple of bad innings. It's unfortunate because I think this is a game that we could have won.

I was amazed at how well both teams did under the conditions.

Delta is a team that's always real competitive. We are pointing to them as the top team in the league. They are well-coached and have great ballplayers.

It was beautiful weather. I told the guys before the game that this might be the best weather we see all spring. We had a lot of fun.

We had some good performances by individuals. We just came up a little short.

We scored early, but the bats kind of fell silent in the middle of the game. They take their baseball seriously. It was fun to go over there and play them.

We had a great opportunity to score in the first inning, but we couldn't capitalize.

Our team is still hibernating. But if our guys can avoid getting down, I think we will continue to improve and will be competitive in the Western Slope League this season.
