Coach's Quote (Lou Proietti)
- We competed today but didn't do enough to win.
- I liked the way our defense played and thought Robby Black did a great job out of the bullpen.
- Kyle Mahady has been a bulldog for us all year. He did a good job battling without his best stuff. I liked our energy and hope to maintain it tomorrow
