As sophomore Ryan Hill walks up to the plate, he tries to stay as focused as possible. The crowd yelling his name, the pitcher digging his cleats in the mound, so many things are going on around him, but he must relax. The pitch is thrown and Hill makes contact. A run scores and the Broncos win.
“The fans have contributed by just being there and supporting us,” Hill said. “The key moment was when we defeated Summit and Waxahachie after we had previously lost to them.”
