I thought our effort was definitely there. Our girls worked very hard. This is always an emotional game.

Pinch me, I can't believe it. The girls played fantastic. They are so focused and knew that this is what they wanted to do.

We got caught flat one time and it hurt us. But the girls walked away feeling good about how they played.
love girl heart
Now, girls, if you want to observe a young man hustle out after a pick and shovel, just tell him that your heart is in some other fellow's grave. Young men are grave-robbers by nature.
anxious girls good opportunity
The girls are very anxious and excited. It's a good opportunity for us.

The game got physical, and we had too many turnovers. But all year, our girls fought hard, and they did tonight until the very end. I was very proud of them.

I'm sure it will be really strange for him. You can imagine when he steps out on the pitch everyone will go crazy - he was more than a great servant for this club. And I'm sure that if he has to put his foot in then he will!

I'm thrilled with the performance, but disappointed to lose on a technicality. It's a tough way to learn a lesson, but it doesn't take anything away from the way the kids ran.
ability attacking fact grown impressive quality
I know the quality of these boys. All the youngsters have grown in confidence. With our attacking ability and especially -- what for me is the most impressive thing -- the fact we are not conceding goals, I can say we are cautiously optimistic.
forced needs scoring stopped
I know when we stopped them and got a turnover, then forced a three-and-out and were still down 14-10 that there was something wrong. That scoring needs tweaking.

I'm looking forward to the second half of September. How could you not want to be in a pennant race with the Yankees?

That helps her 400, to be able to run a good 200 like that. We're excited about her running that. That shows a little versatility, and it's nice to have.

That is the kind of cultural and social planning that we have to reinstate.
