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 />
