Any time you get kids to work as hard as they are and showcase their talent, it's exciting. The kids from my team are an exceptional group.

The kids are a delightful group to spend time with. They enjoy each other's company and they represent themselves, their school and their community well.

When you move kids it takes time. We have some situations to work on. We have to fine tune some things. We know our weaknesses. To play good softball you have to do it as a team. That's what we did last year. We don't have any girls with attitudes.

I'm looking forward to maybe bringing in some more kids who have that talent level. There's just no telling where this program can go.

We've got enough talent to be competitive. We've got some kids that know what it takes to win. We certainly can be in the hunt for the league title.

He's one of those kids. You know when a kid's got talent, but a lot of times you see 'em struggle with new surroundings. In his case, it was the total opposite. He's a kid who, if he doesn't open your eyes, your eyes are shut. He has a chance to be a star in this game.
