Defensively Stephanie Walker had one of her best games. She made a lot of game breakaway stops and saves. |
I just think it's a great thing for both teams to have something to play for. It adds a finale to the season. I give [Willis head] coach Gonzales credit for coming up with it. |
I thought after that goal that we would finally get going. We had our chances. We just couldn't get the ball in the net. |
In my opinion this tie is one of the greatest ties or wins in the short history of the Montgomery Bears soccer team. This has really put us on the map. |
It wasn't a win, but it wasn't a loss either. |
It's been a special year for us. We've had a really good season. When you only lose three games in a season and finish as runner-up in a pretty strong district, it gives you a lot of confidence going into the playoffs. We need to use that confidence the right way. |
It's the first [second place] title of any type or trophy for the three year program. It's a wonderful feeling for a three year program to be this far in so little time. |
The girls played beautifully. It was probably the most intense game I've seen them play. They overcame a lot of nerves and anxiety to rise up. I'm so proud of them. |
The girls played outstanding. The girls played through injuries and played with a lot of heart. |
The whole team played well. There was not a weak link in our starting 11. We played hard, and we played strong. |
They came out and played hard. They are a hard-nosed team. I'm impressed with the way they played. I don't think we were fully prepared with what they brought us, but once we settled down it worked, and it took us a while to get going. It's a great rivalry, and it's only going to get better in the future. |
They showed a lot of courage coming back in the second half. I was very proud of them. |
This tells me that my girls can play. Anderson is a 5A powerhouse and we hung with them and outplayed them. We are a great team. |
We're a young program. Last year they made the playoffs. This year we have a lot of different girls. Last year was a great experience. The girls have more expectations for themselves this year. We're not looking past this game. We want to keep playing. |
We've really counted on them. When those two have exceptional games, all the other girls rise up around them and play. |
