late matter team
This was just a really well-played game. It was just a matter of which team would get the late break.
enjoy hard team
One thing I enjoy about this team is they play hard and never quit.
carry gets senior team
She gets better every outing. That's what a senior does. Sometimes they have to take the team on their back and carry them.
best good teams
Pittsburg is the best we're going to see. They are solid, one through nine. We want to play good teams and be able to play with them and play better each day.
days goes ladies respond teams
Days like this happen. Teams have days where nothing goes right. It's how you respond to them. I told the ladies I was disappointed for them and not at them.
ball both capable hitting knew lift teams
Psychologically, it was the lift we needed. Both teams were hitting the ball really well. We were just hitting right with them, which is something I knew we were capable of doing.
bottom errors extra game learn teams until
It was a back-and-forth game until the bottom of the sixth. We started off with two fielding errors and they had a bases-loaded double. We have to learn not to give teams extra outs.
added biggest competition concerns depth fill harder hurts knows lack last small teams
Depth was one of our biggest concerns last year. We only had 13 players, so we really added to our depth. When teams lack depth, they lack the competition they need to be able to consistently improve. That's one of the things that hurts teams when they have a small roster. Everyone knows they're going to have to play. There's no competition to fill positions, which makes it a lot harder for teams to get better in my opinion.
ball good hard hit hitting innings
We hit the ball hard the first two innings right at Wayne. If you keep hitting the ball hard, good things will happen.
good runners second twice unable
We had runners at first and second twice with no out and were unable to score. We did everything else as good or better than they did.
game playing softball taking timing together
We're taking our lumps. A lot of it is just playing together and being outside. Softball is a game of timing and you can't get that from the Barnett Center.
bat defense great playing swinging
She had a great at-bat. She's swinging the bat well and playing great defense for us as well.
errors good improving mentality weekend
Now our errors are not killing us. Our mentality is improving too. It was a good weekend for us.
ran
Lisa (pitcher Koehler) ran out of gas. We got a little tired.
