If you haven’t heard by now, St. John the Baptist had a dramatic, steak snappin’ 2-1 win over Kellenberg on Friday. It was a playoff atmosphere and also the best played game I’ve seen so far this season, on both sides. Couldn’t fit all of the postgame reaction in the story itself, so we’ll post it here for your viewing pleasure…
“Sometimes luck goes your way, sometimes it doesn’t. They executed, we could have executed a little better offensively and we knew that. This motivates them to continue working hard in practice. It’s one game, that’s the way we look at it.”
On Hoffmann’s hit: “In that situation, especially in a pressure situation when you know the game is tied 1-1, the weight of wanting to be the hero in that situation can sometimes make you take big swings and not make anything happen. I think she just knew that she needed to put the ball in play and that’s what she did and that was the difference.”
