Errors cost us the game today. It wasn't just the fielding, but the mental mistakes we made that took this game from us.

I'm very happy with what I saw from Jordan, especially with no walks. We have the defense, we just need her to give them an opportunity to win games for her.

Last year, a lot of the games we loss were due to our youth. We've worked on the mental aspects of the game. A lot of the mistakes and inability to come through with the big hit when we needed had to with maturity.

Merrill had good pitching and hit the ball hard, and I was proud that other than a couple of hiccups we were right there. It shows a lot of respect for our program that they would come down and play us, and I thought we both got a good experience out of it.

That's the kind of consistency we are looking for this season. We have good pitching, and the girls in the field are making plays.
|
The bar is set high. These kids are hungry. If we do what we're capable, we're going to be a team to reckon with. We have definite goals as a team -- win conference and go to state.

The thing I liked was our consistency at the plate. We scored six runs in the first inning, and we had seven hits in a row. We have been waiting until the third or fourth inning to get our hits, but today we started right away.
|
We came back, but we couldn't close the deal. Today was a great game, but we just didn't execute when we needed to.
|
We did a better job today of putting the ball into play. I think we've been doing a little too much waiting at the plate, and we've been trying to stress to the girls that if the pitch is close and they think they can hit it that they should be going after it.
|
We're going to make some changes. We had to shake up the lineup in the middle of last season and we went on a tear, and I think it's something we have to look at.
|
What I was most pleased with was the bottom of our order. Those girls came into the seventh with the mindset that it wasn't over yet.
