Nobody went past her. She may not be the fastest defender, but she reads it extremely well. Her confidence level has to be quite high right now.
excellent illinois level played sunday turning
We didn't play well on Friday, but Sunday we were excellent again, at the level we played in the Illinois and Northwestern games. We're getting to overtime, and we're turning it up a notch.
air balls last picked played poorly seven taking winning
Without taking anything away from Syracuse, I thought we played poorly in the first half. We weren't winning balls in the air or on the ground. But for the last seven minutes, after they scored, we picked it up.
defense four last loss takes team time
This will be a different team than we had last year. It takes time for a defense to gel, especially with the loss of four seniors.

We will treat this as a special game on Friday. We've been talking about the Big East for about a year and a half now, and it's finally here.
best course direction ecstatic extra game good legs start step walk
We walk away with our best start ever. We had that extra game on our legs and they didn't. Are we ecstatic with the tie? No. Of course we wanted to win, but it's another step in the right direction for what right now I feel is a very good team.

Right now, (Martin) could play 90 minutes, but (her hip) would be very sore the next day. We have to get her healthy first.

We came out with something to prove today. As we walk away from today, we earned something. It wasn't exactly what we wanted, but it was something.
field happy longer night offense overtime second senior special straight took
In the second half, we were able to use more of the field and get our offense going. It's our second straight overtime game, the second time it took a little longer to win, but we'll take it, especially with it being Senior Night. It's a special night for them, I'm happy that we were able to win.
confident credit defense deserves deserving feeds honor integral involved named national players rest shown team
Being named to a national team-of-the-week, she has shown she is deserving of an honor like that. She deserves a lot of credit for our start. She's an integral part of our defense. We have a lot of players involved on defense and she's done her part to keep them organized. She's confident and the rest of the team feeds off that.
ball days expect field five flow four game great playing relatively spread turned
At times we turned the ball over a little too much, and we didn't try to spread the field enough. But the way we're playing right now is still relatively new. We only implemented it about four or five days ago, and you can't expect a great flow to the game all the time.
goalkeeper great hit line pulled
It was a great shot. Their goalkeeper did play off her line and (Kelly) was about even with me. I told her to hit it, and she pulled the trigger.

It's the best start in school history. In the pre-season we felt like the mix was there, but we had some injuries. We had concerns but I don't think we had doubts.
