A lot of those girls felt that pain from last year. |
Defensively, we didn't help our pitcher out. She made a lot of nice pitches and we either made an error or made a mental error and we just have to work on that. It's early in the season. |
I respect the athletes' wishes. She is a competitor and will help us no matter where she plays. |
Our main goal this year is to advance to the regional final. |
She (Kaufman) is coming with more speed, control and picking her pitches better. She is giving her defense chances to help her. |
We wanted to avoid Stilwell if we could. She's a good hitter. They came up with the clutch hits every time they had someone on base. We made mistakes we can't afford to make. We can't continue to give them five outs or they will come back and punish us and they did. |
We will not need a lot of them (runs). |
