Coaches comments: Coaches comments:
Ken Campbell - "This will be a very tough series and challenge for our team. It is always tough playing conference games on the road, especially opening up on the road against a quality program such as Columbia St. They are very well coached and are very talented. We will definitely need some breaks to go our way to have a shot in this series " Jim Painter - "After losing on the road twice to North-West Shoals (AL), we have got to come back this weekend and play our kind of baseball. We must be better in every aspect of our game if we want to win this series this weekend. Walters has a very talented baseball team again this season and they will be a tough first conference series."
