Frank Romero Quotations

We take anything that we get and put it back into our program for the kids to use. I just think it's fun, especially for our senior kids. They've been here a long time and it's a chance to honor them a little bit.

He's a strong kid. He's usually throwing in upper 80's and lower 90's. I think it's those guys who have gotten the experience that are going to have to step up and be the leaders.

He's going to give you everything he's got, and he's going to give us a chance to put us in the ball game. I feel confident. The team had a good workout today.

I thought we were rolling along really good, but we just couldn't close the door in the seventh. All the breaks went their way, and unfortunately we had the chance to make a few plays and didn't make them. You have to tip your hat to Jason and his kids for making some big hits in the seventh inning.

Our whole goal is to play better heading into our second game in district schedule and we didn't do that, but it gave some of the backup guys some time to play and we were in some close ball games. You can only practice and simulate that a few times. There's no substitute for that. Hopefully this can be something we can learn from as we start district.

We played hard, but we didn't always play smart. We got some opportunities in the game, but just didn't do it.

You'd like to get off to a good start. It's a long season, and you aren't going to be out of it early if you have a few setbacks. If you aren't ready to play every night, you will get your feelings hurt.

We are really swinging right now. I think it says something of our kids and what they are doing well. We are winning that part of the game and putting it in play, and as a result we are getting more opportunities. I hope we can continue to do that. It will be a lot of fun.

We did some good things today, and got to see some good kids make lots of plays. It was a great crowd, good ballgame, and it was really a good weekend. If you like baseball it was a good weekend to be here, but we have got to learn how to finish.

We didn't play very well. We had been moving guys over and getting hits with runners in scoring position. We had a lot of opportunities. We have to be better with two strikes. We're not doing the things we did earlier in the year. We have some people hurt and we've played a lot of different people. We're out of sync. We have to find a way to play better.

We didn't play very well, but you wouldn't know because they didn't hang their heads, but we really need to play well for our own sake. I think our kids are the ones that can do that. In this district you can't afford to fall into a slump and a losing streak can hurt you.

We'll take it. We came out and swung the bats early. I told them they play hard at home. They've lost four ball games by one run in district. They made a comeback. I was really proud of our kids for hanging in there at the end. It looked pretty bad. We came back and made some big pitches and got through it. We sure needed the win. We have games the next two days. It was big for us.

We'll take it. Klein Forest played well and we didn't play bad. We made some plays. Klein Forest hung around. This district is so competitive.

We didn't get it done. We left 11 guys on base.

We'll have rounds of golf on auction, baseball related items, signed balls, and an autographed jersey that the kids sign. The parents get different items to sell. It's not just baseball stuff, it benefits everybody.

We went 10 innings with them the first time, and I expect it to be a good ball game on Tuesday. They have two good right handers that I expect to face, so we'll try to see what we can do with them, but it's going to be competitive all the way through. You just have to come out ready to play every night.

You got to take advantage of your opportunities, and so far we've done that. We haven't played well defensively. If you can make routine routine plays you can win ball games and we have to get to where we can do that. Some of the conditions were a little wet the past few days, but I think we will get better in that area, it surely gives you something to work on.

After he won his first league championship game, he went out and bought scooters for everybody. He never said anything to the league, never asked permission.

It's a big one, we didn't really have a good weekend. We are hoping to bounce back and get something going.

It's a big one. Tomball, over the last few years, has won as many games as anybody in the state. Their staff does a great job. Hopefully we can have a big crowd. It's a shot-in-the-arm for our kids. This may be the best ball club we've face this year.

It was a total team effort. We played 16-17 guys per game. It's really good to see contributions up and down our lineup. When they get to the ball park, they are ready to play because they know they are going to play at some point and time.

It was a rough weekend. We were kind of a little banged up when we came this way. We held a couple of guys out, and we wanted to get some continuity this weekend.

It's a chance for us to play some different people. We'll get away and spend some time together as a team. We want to get some consistency going heading into the big part of the district schedule.

It's a fun deal for our kids. It's one of our fund-raisers that we do. We'll present the varsity kids with their jerseys, and try to introduce all the kids and give them recognition. It kind of gets your season going a little bit.

It was a big win. North Shore had beaten a good Cy-Fair ball club. I told our kids they were going to be in a seven-inning fight. I was real proud of the way we played. We made plays when we had to. Jeremy showed a lot of composure and we made some big plays behind him.

It was a dandy game. We were fortunate. We hung in there and got clutch hits. That's what you have to do in this district.

I'm glad to have it. We played well early and Stephan pitched well. They came back and got a few runs. I was glad to see the top of our order hit well (6 of 9 hits). I'm really glad to get that one behind us. Jason Washburn does a great job at College Park. We're excited about playing The Woodlands tonight. We'll have our hands full, but we'll play hard.

I'm excited for our kids. We'll keep playing them one game at a time.

I'm proud of our kids. We got ahead early. I'm proud of them for hanging in there when it got tight.

I'm really proud of the way we played. Beau Ballard pitched an outstanding game. We scored a few runs early and made them stand up. We made a lot of plays defensively.

I'm just waiting for us to break loose and swing the bats a little better. We just aren't aggressive as I thought we were going to be. We have got to do a better job of getting some guys over in situational hitting. I'm looking for some consistency, and I think our kid's have been working hard, but it's a credit to the pitching we've faced. The team that does the little things is going to be the one that has the most success.

I'm proud of getting there. I'd like to play better when we got there. We were in it, but we were just a little in experienced. We struggled a little bit, and we couldn't stop the bleeding.

In the seventh we didn't keep the ball in front of us. You get excited in the heat of the game. It didn't lose the ball game for us, but you have to tip your hat to them. They played hard, and that's just the way it is in this district.

This is a gentleman who wants it all, who wants the best kids so he can win the championship. He didn't go through the chain of command like he was supposed to. He had the say-so of everything. It was a very difficult year.

The end of the year is a tough time for an event, and I like seeing all of our kids and parents. Everybody is excited about the season and starting baseball again.
