The Diamond Doggs have been busy on the practice field as well as with scrimmage games. In addition, the team embarked on its annual trek to camp at Mis sissippi State University, some thing coach Brian Smith said is always the highlight of the sum mer schedule. “It was another great camp,” Smith said. “They were preparing for their Super Regional. It didn’t affect the camp other than in a good way. We were able to sit in on their practices. It was a good atmosphere and there was good energy for the players and coach es involved. Arizona was coming in two days after we left.” The Bulldoggs had a chance to compete against schools from Florida, Louisiana, Missouri and several other states. Smith said it’s always fun to compete against teams you don’t normally see on the field. Following the came, WBHS returned home and has continued working.
