ball base defense exception eyes hard hit looked nice overall possibly running totally
I think, with the exception of base running mistakes, we looked very good. The defense was totally solid; especially tonight, we made some really nice plays. We hit the ball as hard as you can possibly hit it, but it just didn't have eyes at times, but overall I was very pleased.
bat chances closer credit excellent game key plate played quite swing third ucla
I thought we played excellent and we had some chances but didn't quite capitalize. The game was closer than the score, but credit UCLA for making the play at the plate in the third inning and getting the one key swing of the bat to win it.
dynamite emily
I thought that Emily was dynamite in the first game.
ballgame break chances gotten outcome ready win
I think we were here ready to play and if we could have gotten a break or two here or there, the outcome could have been different. We had chances to win the ballgame and we'll have more chances down the road.
excited game happy lauren love passionate player work
Lauren Castle, wow, what a day for her. I'm so happy for her because I don't think I've ever had a player work as hard, be as passionate and love the game as much as she does. I am so excited for her.
divided except far needed paper programs realistic sweep teams track
This was one of those teams that we said we needed to sweep and we're getting it done. We divided the programs up as to what was realistic and who we thought on paper we should sweep and we are on track so far except for Georgia.
control emily except exploded finish quite realize scoring sharp statement talked total
We talked about scoring in the first inning because we realize how important it is for us. We exploded out, and made a statement immediately. We couldn't quite finish it, but we did get to play everybody. Emily (Turner) wasn't as sharp as she has been, but she was still in total control except for one pitch.
continues harris hill hole klein phenomenal power second
Stephanie Hill was just phenomenal today. Leslie Klein continues her tear. Camille Harris showed power from the second hole that we have been lacking.
against good knew last previous
I just knew that Quinlan was going to get that last RBI because of her previous at bat. She was making good adjustments against a very good pitcher.
emily junior kid mental pitcher senior since talent until year
I have to give kudos to Emily because that kid has come a long way since she started. I always thought it would take until her junior or senior year until you could really see what kind of pitcher she is. She's always had all the talent in the world and now she's getting the mental aspect.
again believe both change deal emily great leaders leaders-and-leadership lights perform pitchers starting step tough track
I like the way we look right now. Our leaders are starting to step up their play. Emily was lights out again for us. Dani had her change up working well again. It's great to see both of our pitchers perform so well because we really do believe we have that 1-2 combination but it's just been a little lacking. Once Dani is back on track we should be really tough to deal with.

Softball is an easy sport to fall in love because our game is fast paced and action packed.
