Coaches comments: Coaches comments:
Ken Campbell - "We know we have our work cut out for us this weekend on the road against Southwest. They probably have the best pitching staff in the league. The key for us will be if our offense can put up any runs on their staff, which will be a very tough thing to do. We just hope we can come out and play hard and compete." Johnny Ray - "This is a huge series for us.  The fact is, we are playing the 9th ranked team in the nation and on paper they are better than anyone in the TJCCAA. Walters State can beat you in any facet of the game and it is important for us to play as well as we can to give us a chance.  Coach Campbell has done a great job with this group and it is up to us to step up to the challenge."
