This was a good win for us, even though our bats cooled off significantly. We failed to make some adjustments until late in the game, but we wanted to go into the vacation week at 3-0, and we accomplished that goal.

Ultimately, our defense let us down the entire week, and we were unable to generate a lot of offense or come up with clutch hits.

We have so many things in our playbook that if a team thinks they have us scouted out, we'll just throw something else at them. We have a lot of ways to keep people on their toes. It can be hard to remember sometimes, but it's obvious it works.

He's due to pay us a visit in the spring.

A big and disappointing loss to close out a tough week. This is always a game I personally look forward to, having graduated from and having played for A-B. We out-hit them by a 9-5 margin, but left 11 runners on base. We left the tying run on in the fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh innings.

Peter was a giver. He was always trying to put me in a good position - and set up the interview that got me a teaching job in Andover in the same department he worked in.
