“Our offense has been our best asset all year long. 1-9, we swing it pretty well. The guys take good approaches at the plate, and they try do damage on fastballs and mistake offspeed. We also have a handful of on the bench players who we feel confident in at the plate as well,” said Choctaw County head baseball coach Ben Tillman.
“Our pitching rotation has been really good lately. We have confidence in our five guys. The big thing is to continue to get better offensively and defensively. Continue to throw strikes and make plays in the field,” said Tillman.
