goog luck to the green team—my son played on the ’97 team that went to the colt world series–it was a great experience for all of us! he had great teammates and good coaches who were excellent examples for the team—-they overcame a lot of adversity by winning 5 straight games after losing their 1st game—i am glad this program is still successful.
Olczak, got it and that is going to be a tough to remember, but we will get and expect to see big things from that kid in the future along with our other new names over the past few years of Kuxhausen, Jaylin, Holleman and others….
I think Olczak was at NWG last year and he is headed to HP Wesleyan this upcoming school-year….
