COACH COMMENTS: "It's always tough when it ends, but like I told the guys, they have nothing to hang their heads for. We had a very good season and I'm extremely proud of how the guys competed today and on the season. They made great strides this year for themselves and Charlestown Baseball. We really enjoyed the seniors and we'll miss them very much. They were a big part of what we've accomplished here this season and they will leave big shoes to fill." - Coach Ricky Romans

COACH COMMENTS: "What a wild ride! I can't say enough about the kids and their effort in this tournament, especially tonight. It definitely wasn't easy and we really had to battle to win.

COACH COMMENTS: "We just got outplayed tonight. We didn't really play that bad, but Salem just put the ball in play and did all of their damage with 2-outs each time. The first inning was huge. I thought we came out very focused and ready to go, but it just wasn't our day. We'll keep working. We have to put this behind us and look forward to our next opportunity." - Coach Ricky Romans

We have to start playing more fundamentally sound defense or it's going to catch up with us, but it's nice to get two victories today" - Coach Ricky Romans
