We did really well down there. We got better as the week went on. We got solid pitching performances out of Philip Dean and Patrick Cooper down there.
This was a competitive game. Both teams wanted it and played hard, and they were fortunate enough to get there.
Patrick in that last game pitched really well. Dean pitched really well and got a win. Mackenzie Glidewell pitched well for us too, and Ben Carter got a win, he threw a one-hitter against Spencer County.
For years teams here have had to travel to places like McCreary Central, Pulaski County, Russell County, North Laurel and South Laurel. Now we will have a chance to stay closer to home.
Patrick lost his rhythm in the fourth and had only one bad inning. He was able to work out of jams in two of the first three innings. He's a quality pitcher, though, and he'll bounce back.
He is only a sophomore but he did a nice job keeping us off stride all day. We have always prided ourselves with being able to put the bat on the ball but we didn't do it today. We haven't struck out that many times in a game since I have been here. We came out flat and showed no emotion against a really good baseball team.
Tyler Morris had a huge day at the plate.
He's hurt us in previous years, and he did what he does best.
We were a little more patient, letting him pitch more in that inning and weren't hitting the first pitch.
