But to get (South Bend) in the first round or to get them second doesn't really matter. Either way, you're gonna have to go through them.

South Bend in Vintage Postcards,

We had a decent first round. We got five kids into the second round, and we'll take it.

We've always said that you can't win the league in the first round of the season but you can lose it. I think that is the great part of playing in the NCC.

I can honestly say I've never had a team score 17 runs and I was on the top step [of the dugout] in the bottom of the ninth with a chance to lose the game.

[Chris] didn't have his normal command of his pitches. That's the sign of good pitcher when he can not have his best command and battle through it, and he gave us five solid innings.
