Being on the other side and watching another team dog pile never feels good. However, I couldn’t be more proud of this team and what they have accomplished.

This is a special team, one that Helena has never seen before. 54 wins, a State Championship and a second place finish at the Northwest Regionals.

More importantly, a great group of young men that represented our program, community and State very well both on and off the field. I will always remember this team for their tenacity, their fight and their never say die attitude.

Thank you to the parents and Helena community for all your support. These boys loved to play ball for you. The way you packed the Kindrick stands this year was awesome. Our cheering section at State was amazing. Our boys played with energy and a lot of that can be attributed to our fans.

Thank you to my team, you took all of us on one heckuva ride! You played your best baseball with your backs against the wall. 6-1 in elimination games just doesn’t happen.

Playing for each other, extending the season one game at a time. One more chance to step on the field with your brothers. You embodied the “All In” attitude.

I love each and every one of you. Thank you for all you gave this season.
