CHAMPIONS 5 YEARS IN A ROW!<br />
<strong>RIS</strong> Boys Varsity Softball Team<br />
he boys’ varsity softball team<br />
Tkept their winning tradition alive<br />
by capturing their 5 th consecutive<br />
SEASAC title. While the team<br />
struggled in the short season losing<br />
all 4 games it played, coach Dave<br />
Cote’s boys never let their poor start<br />
defray them from their goal.<br />
“Early in the season, the boys were<br />
finding ways to lose games,” said<br />
coach Dave. “They were ahead in<br />
each one of their games but had<br />
mental collapses in the big innings.<br />
We just kept things fun and positive<br />
up until the SEASAC tournament and<br />
you could see the hitting and overall<br />
team confidence-level improving.”<br />
When asked whether or not he thought<br />
that the <strong>RIS</strong> boys’ team would go<br />
undefeated in the tournament, Coach<br />
Cote said, “I wouldn’t have bet my<br />
life on it, that’s for sure! The boys<br />
played solid defensively and batted<br />
almost .600 for the tournament. It<br />
is difficult to lose a high school<br />
tournament when you are playing<br />
that well!”<br />
Congratulations to the <strong>RIS</strong> boys team<br />
for winning SEASAC this year!<br />
