My curveball was actually a strike about 80 percent of the time. The umpire had a high zone and I think that helped me a little.
Last year I really had to step it up for the team and for myself. I think last year it really opened things up for me and showed me how it is, and now I'm like a veteran.
It's great. We've got three good starters (including junior right-hander Matt Smith), and he's a solid No. 2 hitter. He laid down a couple of great bunts (Tuesday). I feel like we have a complete team again.
