I don't usually post the competition's work, but Saratoga Springs pitchers Danny Hobbs and Cory McArthur gave an exclusive interview with fellow students, the Duchenne Duo. The nearly 15 minute segment gives a nice glimpse into the juniors' mindset ahead of Saturday's state semifinal, the starting pitcher-reliever perspective and just how goofy the two Blue Streaks pitchers are. Insightful and funny, nice work Peter!


Here is my Saratoga Springs vs. Orchard Park state semifinal game preview.

And in case you missed it, here is a story-by-story look at the Blue Streaks' run to the Class AA final four.
