I told the girls that we expect to compete in every single game. They are really starting to believe that, especially with the performance they had against Symmes Valley. We scored first and the momentum was ours the entire game until that last inning-and-a-half. |
Mount Vernon is supposed to be pretty good. They played some pretty tough teams last season. Their schedule was pretty tough. |
Taking them on a trip will help build team chemistry to the next level. The girls bring a lot of heart and a lot of enthusiasm. Anytime you can build on what they've brought to the table and do some kind of team building it will be a good experience for them. |
The girls look forward to playing Liberty because we have played them in an indoor league the past two years. We feel like we've battled them quite a bit. It's developed into a little bit of a rivalry because they're a newer school also. |
Things are coming together pretty well. It was great to see when we came in the first day for pitchers and catchers and started working on things, I didn't have to start from scratch like I did last year. The girls picked up right where they left off last year. |
This isn't what we had hoped for. We're hoping to come back and play a lot better than what did toward the end of last week. Hopefully we can get back on the right track. There is still a long season ahead of us and we just need to come in every day expecting to compete and do everything we can to win ball games. |
Watkins is the only game where we've gotten beat really bad. They handled us both times. They're just a good team. They hit the ball really hard. We were in the other games. It's a situation here or there. |
We had to throw a team together that is typically what we wouldn't have. We did the best we could with what we had, but we didn't play very well. |
We're hoping to get a couple of wins and get some momentum for the tournament. The win against Fisher Catholic helped a lot because the girls know that they can do it. |
