It's always been unbelievable when we play here. When you match up this game day atmosphere, a regional-type atmosphere, with one of the best programs out there it is great for college softball.

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.
coaching concerned great knew proud rest staff stretch team time
I was very proud of the team this week. I was kind of concerned because they knew they were getting some time off and I didn't want them to look ahead. The team and the coaching staff are going to get some rest this weekend. It comes at a great time with the stretch that we are about to encounter.

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.

I thought it was an exceptional day for the Tigers. We hit the ball hard and played good defense. Everyone had a chance to play. The competition gets a little better tomorrow, but overall I was very happy.
against ball bit control emily hard moved oregon outing rough state threw throw
I thought it was important for Emily to throw tonight. She had a rough outing against Oregon State and we wanted to give her back a little bit of confidence. She threw hard and I thought her ball moved well. She was in control during the game.

Stephanie Hill was just phenomenal today. Leslie Klein continues her tear. Camille Harris showed power from the second hole that we have been lacking.
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.
business came care cylinders firing left people second series
We came out firing on all cylinders in the first game. However, in the second game, we just left too many people on base. The series is not over. We still have to come out and take care of business tomorrow.

Dani looked very good tonight. She was in complete control after the first inning and really only had one bad pitch in that inning.

It was a good job by Dani for a few innings and then a great job by Emily. Killian made a great play at the end that helped keep them from scoring.

I've got to hand it to the team. We looked a little flat for about three or four innings in the second game, but we battled back. We came from behind and never game up. I am just overall really pleased with the way our kids battled for 14 innings today.
