Pretty Neat Experience!

Coach - That is great to hear what the experience meant to you. As a parent, I love to watch former teammates of my son's play. I'm hoping to get to see either some intrasquads this fall or see them play next spring. I also can tell you from a player's perspective that it means a great deal to have a former coach there. Son always was very touched to have one present and I'm sure would love to have the opportunity to perform for his former HS coaches at the college level. That's great that you care so much!

CoachB25: A very memorable weekend I'm sure! Is it likely that these two pitchers will be matched up again in the future? Have they learned to be friendly competitors regardless of the outcome? I'm hoping so.

4sale, be guessin' they're team-mates

I don't know if they will be matched up again against each other. Both are great kids. While watching the game, it was exciting to watch how both are maturing both physically and with their skills. One struck out the sides in his limited outing. Both were only allowed to throw 3 innings. The former player that was coaching is a former player that was very close to me and played AAA Ball for various organizations. It was nice to see him around the game again after a rough year this past year. One year, I had several players playing for one team. They played for Southwest Missouri State and 4 started the same game. THAT WAS VERY SPECIAL.

Bee: Silly me!
