He's hitting everything on the screws. Even his outs are spectacular.

Kyle's has been hitting the ball really well for us in the last two weeks. Even his outs have been hard hits.

They just made the hits. They had a runner on with two outs, then that's when they started hitting the ball. They're a good ball club, one of the best hitting ones in the district. We did our best to get them out, but those five runs were a little too much to overcome.

I told them that I had faith in them. I said that you guys can do this if we can just get some people on base, and we did. I didn't expect what happened.

It was nice to see [that kind of offense]. Whenever you can play long ball, it takes pressure off your defense. I can't remember taking two from Cary in my five years [as head or assistant coach] at Jacobs.

He has a great arm, good speed and he seemed to make solid contact every single time. Usually with sophomores, they can struggle big-time with varsity pitching, but he's hitting shots.
