I caught up with Malachi Moreno at the Great Crossing basketball camp this morning. Here is what he had to say about his new teammate Milan Momcilovic.
"He was the best shooter in the country last year, he fits Pope's offense perfectly. We're going to be dangerous."

"He is genuinely one of the biggest heroes of my life"
Ethan Hindle on what Nick Mingione's mentorship means to him. Mingione is very emotional right now in the press conference.
@BBNTonight | @LEX18News
"We were trained that we were never out of a game"
Hudson Brown on Kentucky's resilience. Brown had a monster game, two homers including the three-run shot in the top of the 8th inning.

"I thought the comeback we made showed their true character and heart"
Mingione said this team has faced the most adversity that he has coached at Kentucky, but tonight showed their character.

Nick Mingione opens up his press conference by talking about the first-class event that was put on by the Morgantown regional from the organizers to the umpires.

"I think it would be great"
West Virginia head coach Steve Sabins said he'd be open to scheduling a regular season series with Kentucky if the weekends lined up. Mentioned the importance of scheduling quality regional games.

For the second straight season, @UKBaseball sees their season end in the regional final to West Virginia. This time, a 6-5 10th inning loss to the Mountaineers.

Mitch Barnhart and Nick Mingione embracing after Monday’s season-ending loss.
Barnhart brought Mingione to Lexington, and since then they’ve grown very close.

Nick Mingione talking with his team after a devastating extra innings loss to West Virginia.
Kentucky had so much heart, and it showed. But the Mountaineers beat the Wildcats in the margins. End of the road for UK

Ethan Hindle fights off Chansen Cole enough for West Virginia head coach Steve Sabins to go to the bullpen.
In comes Dawson Montesa, who threw 122 pitches yesterday against Wake Forest.
There was ZERO momentum going in favor of the Wildcats. West Virginia had Kentucky dead to rights, yet two home runs tie the game.
Pour that coffee, take a quick bathroom break. This could be a long night.
