The Bombers had the best pitching and hitting in the state and that has to be attributed to the coaching. Rustad took players that were mediocre during high school ball and coached them to success in the legion season. The defense was also exceptional and the only reason they made errors in regionals is because the had to play 7 games in 3 days.....they were obviously fatigued. And as far as homerun celebrations go it shows team chemistry and comradery, I'd be pretty excited if one of my teammates hit a game changing home run in the biggest tournament of their young career. It's not showing up the other team when a you cheer for your success and the you are respectful towards other teams mistakes. So quit talking about how terrible the Bombers and their coach were, when THEY WERE THE BEST JUNIOR LEGION TEAM IN THE HISTORY OF THE PROGRAM AND THE WHOLE STATE.

And they also weren't mediocre during high school ball; many were varsity starters. And the errors were not due to "fatigue", it was due to playing that way all year. No one who hit a homerun for the Bombers was in any way respectful towards the other team. Cocky gesutures towards opponents players and benches isn't exactly respectful. I'm not sure how anyone could know that this was supposedly the best team in the history of the state either.

you must really have something against the kid who "bernied" when he hit his home run, because you have talked bad about him in other forums also. but i agree, it was very arrogant of a kid who should have matured and gotten out of that "b.s." by now. but all i want to say is stop saying whats going to happen or not going to happen; time will tell if they will be a good team or not. Your arguments will not have any affect on the outcome.

This program has much deeper problems than the head coach. (though I have always thought it was a bad idea to have one of the local high school coaches running the summer program. Not just Fiechtner, but anyone tied to a school). Hopefully the new coach brings a new system of coaching and evaluation. And is independent enough not to be pulled back, into clearly what is not working.
