Hoefs A Good Choice

For any Mayo baseball players wondering what they're getting in interim head coach Dan Hoefs, I have this to say: rest easy, you're in good hands.

Hoefs is someone who has been around the game for a long time. He knows how it should be played and knows how to coach. He's able to be a player's coach while still laying down the law when it's necessary. I trust his decisions on line-ups as well as in-game decisions like pitching changes. It should be easy for the Spartans to perform for Hoefs. They have plenty of talent this spring and Hoefs will keep them focused, but loose.

My only concern is that Mayo will make it to state, and the Rochester Royals will have to do without him for a few weeks.
