Yet, no question this is Soledad's biggest week of the spring.
Statements come on the biggest stages.
And this week is massive as the Aztecs have two games with Pacific Grove and one with defending Mission Trail Athletic League champion Carmel.
Two of those games are in Soledad, where the Aztecs have a seven game winning streak.
Five of last year's seven MTAL losses for Soledad came from Pacific Grove and Carmel.
Soledad comes into Tuesday's home game with the Breakers having won eight consecutive games, having scored 10 or more runs in all eight games.
A dozen of Nathaniel Villarreal's 19 hits this year have gone for extra bases for Soledad while Daniel Farfan and Jordan Morrison are among the team leaders in hits.
Pacific Grove, which dropped three of four in a tournament in Sacramento last week, has watched Anthony Coppla and Long Beach State bound Chris Fife sting the ball all spring.
Eric Boerner has won his last three outings for Pacific Grove, coming out of the bullpen in two of those games. Villarreal has quietly put together a nice season on the bump for Soledad.
