I don't want to deal with problems, and so you want to make sure that you don't give yourself problems by not doing your homework and maybe trying to take a kid that's got great ability but isn't going to get it done in the classroom.

I want kids who are going to go out there and compete, lay it all on the table. I think the big thing about this game is you have to care a lot about it.

It's a game of making great pitches at the right time, being opportunistic by getting a run at the right time and playing good defense.

We found out that no matter how good you are you can't go out there and compete against teams that have been together for quite some time.

That's the thing about this game -- you get a little monkey on your back. You go 0-for-3, you go 0-for-6, pretty soon you start pressing. You keep trying a little harder, and the harder you try, the worse it gets. So, anytime you can break out of it by getting a base hit, it feeds confidence.

It's not the most conducive weather to play softball in, but you've got to come out and play it.

We have been so impressed with the Pocket Radar that it has become the only radar gun we use for coaching and scouting.
