Coaches’ quotes: “To get beat by one of the best D-II teams in the state on Monday 12-1 and then go to their place today and beat them 13-5 is just a great victory. My kids showed up ready to play and I couldn’t be more proud of their effort.” – Brady’s Skip Foy
“Can’t make eight errors and expect to win a baseball game. We will bounce back, as there is way too much talent on our team to stay down for long. Baseball is beautiful that way, the next day we get to work and move on.” – Stark’s Dennis Pelletier
