We have got to be ready to play because we have a lot at stake. We have an NCAA bid on the line [and] we have an opportunity to host the first round of the regional tournament on the line, so we can not afford to go out there and play poorly and not get the job done. |
We have no reason whatsoever to take Cleveland State lightly. They've lost a lot of tough games this year, and this will probably be the biggest game of the year for them. |
We know they're going to be tough, especially at home. They're a Florida school and they've got good players and a good coach. |
We were hitting the ball hard, and Toledo was making the plays. Even when we were being no-hit, I thought that if we kept doing what we were doing, we would be all right. |
What we've done so far has put us in position to have a very special season, but in order for us to finish the job, we have to get the job done over the next four weeks. |
Whoever it is, we'll get a little preparation for them and we'll get ready to go. My guess is that they're probably going to split up the game with a number of pitchers, but I don't know that for a fact. |
Wright State out-pitched us. I told coach (Rob) Cooper that if his team pitches like that all season, his team will win a lot of games. |
You'd like to see more of a battle from your clean-up hitter in that situation. |
You'd much rather be recognized by the pollsters and the people in the community than not. The thing we have to guard against is living in the past. |
