“As a coach, your dream is to win a state title,” Warriors Manager Emil Castellanos said.
“Just getting here is a tremendous accomplishment, but everybody says that if you don’t win
it you don’t remember it. This is one that we are going to remember for a long time. We have
been chasing this record for a long time. I am just proud of my boys. It was a team effort
today and the guys played great. They work hard and it is just a special moment for our
program and Westminster Christian.”
