Coach's Perspective:

UFTL South Regional Coach of the Year David Ernst praised Lujo as a consistent middle-of-the-order threat, highlighting his tremendous work ethic, leadership, and positive presence.
Coach Ernst"  Rolo was a part of the most wins in program history as well as the best single season winning percentage in program history. His production and leadership will be missed, His  hard work should copied by anyone who wants success. He is a great baseball player but a better human being.
