From Coach Brent Landrum:
It was a great week for the Dragons. The entire experience at Minute Maid Park was incredible. Getting the win versus an outstanding Second Baptist team was the icing on the cake. The extra innings loss to Concordia Lutheran was another tough loss but it was more proof that we can play with anybody we step on the field with. We hit the ball well all week, which is a great sign as we head into the final two weeks of the season. I am proud of how the boys have continued to fight through some tough losses, five losses in extra innings. I expect great things out of this bunch as we head down the last stretch.
