We decided to run a girl and double-team (Michelson) and get the ball out of her hands. It kind of got them off their heels and we got some kids from Marshall to shoot the ball that they probably didn't want to have shoot it. |
We definitely felt like we had something to prove after we lost down at Bandon. We came out really weak there and they just jumped all over us. But we knew we had to come out with a fast start, and that's exactly what we did. |
We definitely have to keep an eye on Crosby a lot more. I thought we just played him like a regular player, and he showed us that we can't allow ourselves to do that. We have to play him tough and try to get him off his game. |
We did a good job of playing offense three days in a row. I thought our kids had good approaches at the plate. (Sunday), just like Friday, we had all three phases of the game: Pitching, defense, offense - I thought we did OK. |
We did a pretty good job today - fighting. This team has fought hard all year. You can say what you want about them. We're not the best team in the league, but we fight pretty hard. That took a lot of guts. I'm proud of them. |
We did better than we had in the past. It's hard. I ask the boys to play so fast, push the ball in transition. Then all of a sudden with 3 minutes left, I'm standing, yelling for them to slow down, go to our spread [offense]. |
We did exactly what we wanted to on that drive, ... We used the pass to get inside of the 50 and then completed two more passes to get into field goal range and ran the ball well enough to make (Baltimore) use their timeouts. |
We did free runs, nonstop. Just me and him. We just went snowboarding. We just went up, we made turns, we slashed. Instead of standing up at the top, letting pressure build staring into the pipe, we went out and had some fun. |
We did him a great service by letting him go when we did. We gave him a chance to make a club, and he did. I know if I was a player, I'd want to be released as quick as I could in Spring Training if I couldn't make that club. |
We didn't do the same things against Cotton Valley. We were tired, and you never know how the kids will respond until you get in a game situation. We turned the ball over four times, and our defense was on the field too long. |
We didn't drive in a run. One was a balk and the other was an error. We missed so many opportunities to break the game open. We failed to execute a bunt and there's just all the little things that keep you from winning games. |
We didn't execute at all on the power play. Fortunately it didn't come back to haunt us. 'When you get a couple of nice goals at even strength like the ones Danny scored and a short-hander, it kind of helps to make up for it. |
We didn't have much of a choice. We are not going to be in the clear for a while. Sometimes you just gain a lot by stepping back a little. We have to focus on the positive things. We all here believe in good, hard work ethic. |
We didn't have nearly as many shots as we've been getting in other games but we were pretty happy with our shot selection. When we did take shots, we got them on target and that's a big improvement from our last couple games. |
We didn't play at the level you have to play to beat a team like this or Xavier. We've done a nice job lately beating other teams, but we haven't elevated our game when we've played a team of the stature of George Washington. |
