 Notes & Quotes
NOTES AND QUOTES


Winning coach, Mike Napoleon of Winnetka (New Trier): "We really swung the bats today. Scoring three runs off the bat really helped. I can’t say enough about (Brian) Rogers’ two-strike two-out single in the first. It really opened things up for us. I knew these guys could hit – in one weekend we scored 71 runs during the season.”

"We don’t have a lot of guys who strike out. When you put the ball in play, good things happen.”

“ (Peter) Elmer will start the championship game tonight. He hasn’t gotten much credit and we think it’s a chance for him to shine.”


Losing coach, Paul Belo of Palatine (Fremd): "We lost to a heck of a team. Eric (Willson) didn’t the have the stuff, giving them walks to start off immediately. Making them feel comfortable and allowing them to settle in doesn’t help.”

“I just thought it came down to getting one out at a time, stopping the big inning and making the routine plays, which are things we didn’t do. We lost to a great team we know that. We’ve had a really nice run and I’m extremely proud of the kids. Now we’re going to work hard to take home the biggest trophy we can.”

“It all starts on the hill and we weren’t getting done on the hill.”
