Friday was Good

Northern Colorado beat New Mexico State today. That was not supposed to happen. On a positive note, Brandon continues to shine in games where it counts for him personally. He went 2 for 4 today with two doubles and two RBI.

He told me after the game that he didn't see one fastball today, only sliders which is a testament to how well he is hitting the ball only seeing offspeed pitches. Northern Colorado went right at New Mexico State's All American (who BL is covering being in the four hole) which says that they realize how well Brandon is hitting right now.

BL said that he couldn't tell which person was there to see him because there were so many "scouts" in the stands. He continues to shine at the right moments when specific people are there to see him in particular. His senior year is continuing to be a good one, in fact, he has probably done enough already to solidify his goal in reaching the next level where everything that he does from here on is just "icing on the cake" and will only lead to bigger and better things for him.

He never ceases to amaze me in the way that he can perform under intense circumstances, but I only hope that he is enjoying his last year of college baseball. These games only lead me to believe that it is not his last year in baseball, but just his last year as an "amateur".

We always hope that NMSU wins each game, but if they don't, at least it takes the sting away knowing that BL had a good day in front of an important audience.
