These were two nice wins even in the cold weather,” said coach Drew Weber. “The spring weather hasn’t cooperated at all and it’s cost us a lot of practice time that we normally have, but it hasn’t affected the boys very much,” said Weber.

I’m very please with our pitching thus far and we’re doing a good job of getting on base offensively. We really need to continue having a balanced attack at the plate and throwing strikes on the mound,” said the coach.
