hard improved player practice tyler
We've just been working hard in practice. (Goalie) Tyler (Herber) has come a long way in the net. He's our most improved player to this point.
ben
Eli used to play defense. But we put him up there to give Ben a break.
care expectation game kids losses pitch responsibility roles taking team understand wins
Our expectation is that our kids play the game the right way and take the responsibility of taking it one pitch at a time. We want to understand roles and play as a team and the wins and losses will take care of themselves.
ball base couple guys hitting needed plays
Offensively, we did what we had to do. We got some guys on base and were hitting the ball alright, but we needed to make a couple more plays in the field.
ben both chad games leading nice scoring terry
Ben has been our leading scorer. Terry and Chad haven't really been scoring much, but they both had really nice games tonight.
closer few final hopefully score second time
I thought it was a little closer than the final score indicated. We just have to make a few adjustments and hopefully the second time around it will be a little closer.
best close games heck played
(Tyler) played one of his best games to keep us close for the first two periods. They just had a heck of the fleury they had.
guys pitchers pleased three walked
I was pleased with the way our pitchers threw. We only walked three guys on the day.
confident defensive field solid
I feel pretty confident that we'll be able to field a solid defensive team.
gas momentum needed ran stifle
We were tired. I didn't think we needed to stifle their momentum as much as we needed a break. We just ran out of gas down the stretch.
game nice odd
It was an odd game. At times we did some nice things and we made some nice plays. Other times we didn't look so good.
beat defenders fast quick teams tough tremendous
They beat us to just about every puck. They have tremendous quickness; the kind you don't see on a lot of other teams. There are other teams with quick forwards, but (Dakota's) defenders are just as fast and it made it tough for us to get shots.
against job nice shots
We did pretty much what we wanted to on offense. Their goalie did a real nice job though, we must have had about 50 shots against them.
guys
We're going to have to get guys on base, because that's where we can do some damage.
