“We had a sophomore quarterback out there. Those kinds of things can happen with an inexperienced guy. He played well getting us down there. But you've got to give Olympia credit, they had a heck of a defensive game plan.”
Barry McKinnon
“He was their shortstop. He played shortstop as a sophomore and junior. He didn't play baseball as a senior because of football.”
Craig Trychel
“He doesn't play like a junior or a sophomore. He played like a senior tonight. He is a tremendous talent and there are times when he can take over a ballgame.”
Danny Grieves
“They have an excellent quarterback [in sophomore Brandon Colon], possibly one of Bates' best quarterbacks ever, so we're going to have to play a great defensive game, ... They have good wide receivers. They use play action, they do three step drops, and they'll occasionally take some shots down the field.”
John Walsh
“Kevin had a lot of nerves playing in his first match as a sophomore. He hung in there to get this one under his belt to make him a better player.”
Tim Marshall
“My sophomore year I didn't really have a position. Whoever was pitching, I played their position.”
Chris Wagner
“Even in our sophomore year when we were on JV together, it was the first time he had every played organized [basketball]. Where he's at now is incredible. His size and his height are such an advantage, and he's taken it further than I ever thought he could. He's made a lot of progress.”
