The school had never had a district win in 35 years.
It had never been to the playoffs, of course, in 35 years.
I inherited a program with 19 players.
Yet, I wanted to do something that had never been done.
And then we did. But it didn’t come easily.
One of the things that made the first couple of years tough, in some sense, was the success of the other programs at the school. My good friend’s softball team was a juggernaut and made it all the way to the state tournament in Tallahassee.
