 Notes & Quotes
Winning coach, Doug Sutor, Orland Park (Sandburg): "Why (Dan) Atkenson? He’s the best we had ready to go. He sat patiently, waited his turn and threw a one-hitter. For a kid to step us like that, it’s great. The key to the game was taking advantage of their mistakes when we got the chance."

“I was never quite comfortable because being up two runs is not that much, not against a team like Edwardsville.”

“Danny (Atkenson) threw strikes all night, and when they hit the ball it seemed to be right at us.”

“Dreams do come true.”

Losing coach, Tim Funkhouser, Edwardsville (H.S.): "Atkenson did a fantastic job. His fast ball hit the corner on a regular basis. When we did hit him it was right at one of their guys."

“Sandburg is a quality club. They’re really hitting the ball, they play good defense and they have outstanding pitching. They were the better team tonight.”

“I’m very pleased with the way we had some at bats during the tournament. Our defense was also good up here. I’m impressed with how hard our guys worked this year.”
