    “So far... we’ve made very, very few mental mistakes,” head coach Bill Covington said. “I can take a physical error a whole lot more than I can take a mental error, and we really have done a good job this year.”

    Covington said the Warriors are running the bases intelligently and making the right defensive throws. So far, he said, he can think of just one play “where we didn’t do the right thing.”
