Hello readers and friends of the Mountaineer Echo, I hope this week finds everyone in good health and happy spirits. As you all have read Robert and I are coaching Baseball like we needed something extra added to us, but the need was there so we stepped up, and I am very glad to say our guys are coming right along. They are getting better every game. We are having very close games in scoring, so we are excited to see these boys grow. Now I am sad that this season is almost over. Crazy how things work like that. Maybe next year they will all come back to play and start off with a better year. I hope everyone has a wonderful week and As Always remember the Little Things.
