well." -Adam Bettigole

"I was hitting my spots, A-Rod [Alex Rodriguez] calls a lot of fastballs, I like using my curveball, but he likes the fastball and I was hitting it. We're not hitting the best right now [the last five games], so [the pitching], including myself have to make sure the scores stay low." -Cody Fisher

"I had two strikes on me, I was trying to get the ball in play; he hung a curveball and it felt good off the bat. I think we can really make a run in the state tournament. With [Zach] Sultar on the mound we're really dominant, and our hitting has really come together." -Jake Siracusa on tying the game and the Bobcats chances going into the playoffs
"[I've been] mixing it up, changing speeds and throwing the right pitch in each situation." -Zach Sultar on season success
"[This win] gives us tremendous confidence going into the tournament, we've been playing very good baseball for the past two  and a half weeks. The defense has been outstanding: we've been making all of the plays defensively. With the combination of great defense, good pitching and timely hits, you couldn't ask for more as a coach. [Zach Sultar] keeps teams off balance, he mixes speeds and he can hit his spots." -Coach McDermott on team and on Sultar's success
5/26 - W v East Hartford (A), 2-1
