I think she has a good team in front of her and gets a lot of support from the other girls. At the same time, she's come up with big saves when we need them. |
I'm a firm believer that these two teams are well matched. I believe Grand Forks is a big rival for Minot. They come out ready to play. The key is matching their intensity. |
I'm pleased with the way we played. |
Our girls have been through it before. They know what they have to do. They managed to stay calm. We believed we were going to win. That's a sign of a team with character. |
She's pretty much it. She's the only goalie we have. |
The biggest problem for us was staying out of the penalty box. We were never able to get into a rhythm. If we would stay out of the penalty box we would score more goals. |
The first goal we scored was huge. Once we got the first goal we had life. We believed we were going to win that game. Most of these girls are veterans and every year we have been through overtime. |
The girls were saying they were still a little tired. I told them they still have one more game. The girls were happy with how they played and executed. |
We have a number of girls that can put the puck in the net. She's a good goal scorer. |
We needed to take care of our zone. South plays as a team, so we had to take care of our zone. |
We'll just play our normal game. Traditionally, what we've done against them is roll our lines and just be aware of those two players. But at the same time, we don't want to change what we do. |
