They honored themselves well and McLean well. Some of the situations they were put in, in that last inning, they played very mature softball and it was incredible.

You can still play sloppy and not get after it and still score points. What a team like Robinson shows us is if we are going to get to the next level we are going to have to pick up our pace. This is what the good teams do.
game hoped opened slow stop sustain
You can't stop everybody, ... We just hoped to slow them down. But we couldn't sustain long drives, and that opened up the game for Long.
