I didn't play as much as maybe I thought I should or maybe I thought I would have. It wasn't the totally perfect experience that I wanted. I have a lot of friends on the team, and I was glad I could help out. And it was a great season.

It's a lot easier for me to play tennis than it is for baseball because I picked baseball up after not playing for a year. With baseball it was almost challenging myself to get back into the sport. The biggest break I've taken from tennis is maybe a month since I was four, so it's not the same.

I never thought I could get a state title in baseball and somehow not get one in tennis. After the season ended, I thought, heck I'll end my baseball career with a state championship and go back to tennis and see if I can duplicate that.
