Casey was exactly the person I wanted to have at the plate in that situation because she does an excellent job of watching the ball she doesn't swing at many bad pitches. She had the opportunity to win the game with one swing. |
Even though we had to get up at 7:30 in the morning on Saturday to travel to St. Norbert, it really didn't affect our game negatively at all. I just told the team to bring their best and have fun, and they put out a combination of both. |
It definitely showed the fight in us when we came back that late in the game. |
Megan is a great example of someone coming in and really taking advantage of her opportunities. She came in and didn't waste any time. Hitting the ball right away really has proven that she deserves to be in the line-up. That's exactly what you want as a coach, someone that makes you make those tough decisions. |
One of the things we always talk about is that the game is never over until we say it's over. The team believed that and hung in there and created some breaks that led to the win. |
We played well enough to win game one. That's the bottom line. It was very stressful though because we didn't score until the seventh inning. |
When a player makes that transition from high school to college, you never know what to expect from them. |
