He's the Texas League champion. The first part of the season he was trying to kill everything because he's a big, strong kid. I told him to just try and put the ball in play and see what happens and he and Nick Cook have done a wonderful job for us in right field.
We just didn't boot the ball as many times. We settled down a bit after that third inning.
Playing Western Mennonite at our place is an advantage. They're a good basketball team. But we'll be in friendly confines and I think we can compete with them. Everybody has a shot on any given night and if we want to get to Pendleton, we've got to win two games to get there.
The first quarter we played extremely well. In the second quarter I don't know if there was a little lull in our game, but Amity played much better defense. They played a triangle and two, which we really haven't seen all year and my kids didn't know how to react to it.
Amity is a much-improved team. They kept battling the whole game.
I thought we got lucky. Amity's playing a lot better. When you're a ranked team everybody comes after you and that's what Amity did. We were lucky to keep enough composure to get out of here with a win.
