That's why coaches tell players never to give up. That's a key example right there … In a game like this, little mental mistakes like that are how you score. |

The pressure is still huge. Coach Barker started a great tradition here and the girls know what to do to be successful. The stress level is pretty high. I don't think this team or this community will be happy if we don't win the state championship. |
There's a couple things we wanted to work on that I thought the girls were able to do. I think this was a good game for us coming off the slaughter from Friday and get us back on track. |
They were beating us to balls early, but we started to pick it up. Our forwards started running through the ball and being very aggressive. That allowed us to take advantage of their mistakes in the back. |
Three tough games and then we get ready for the second season. |
We are at a point where if you lose, you go home. On any given day, anybody can be beat. It's my job to get them prepared. |
We had a great practice. Scoring one minute in doesn't hurt, either. It sends a message to the other team that this may be a long game. |
We were able to get the ball wide, cross it back in and get our head on the ball. That really helped our people in the box get to the ball and get some goals. |
We were just trying to get it over with and get to the real season. |
When you get a two-goal lead it helps. I think we controlled things for the most part. |
