 Notes & Quotes
NOTES AND QUOTES


Winning coach, Mike Napoleon of Winnetka (New Trier): "We hit the ball pretty good when we needed to. We were tight at first and just couldn't field the ball."


"We had outstanding pitching job from (Steve) Floersch. He really got his curve over for strikes but not his change up. He really gutted it out and that was the key to the game."

"Our seniors have been here before and I think that really helped us today."

Losing coach, Tim Funkhouser of Edwardsville: "I thought it was an outstanding game, an outstandingly played game by both teams. I was really impressed by the way our guys competed and the way their guys competed. We had some opportunities to score throughout the game and we didn't up with some big hits. But I was impressed by the way we played."

"New Trier's a quality club and one of the teams had to advance today and unfortunately for us it was them."

"The fifth inning was one of the points in the game where we could have put some runs on the board but we didn't come up the hit or the sac fly."
