Don Bethel Quotations

You have to credit (Martins Ferry) hitters. Katy pitched six strong innings, but it's a seventh inning game. She's still young and she'll be back, and we'll be back.

We've had 16 dress rehearsals up until this point. Tonight was show time and act one, so we have to finish the entire play and if you play bad you could get booted from the stage.

This was definitely a tough one to lose. It was a well-played game and Martins Ferry deserves all of the credit because they hit the ball, it wasn't like we booted it around.

There was no stopping on that hit. (Annie) was going to do one of three things: die of exhaustion, get thrown out or score. There was no question I was going to send her.

I am proud of all of my kids. This was a heck of a softball game, and give St. C. credit because they are much improved from when we played them early in the season, but I am happy with how we fought back twice.
