Sue Peet Quotations

She was just on fire in that game. I'm not sure what it was but she just took over that game.

She plays the whole game, she's always moving forward and she's opportunistic in front of the goal. When you have a player of her ability with the passion she has for the game, it's contagious for the whole team.

She really impressed me as our captain. She really stepped up and made everyone feel okay. She didn't show disappointment (after losing in the finals) and she let her teammates know how proud she was of them.

I think it makes everyone want to raise their game. Honestly it's something that you can't teach. I think you're born with it.

I thought we had much more of the play in the second half. It was definitely better after the goal. Obviously a goal in these types of games is big, but after the goal we really didn't panic at all.

That was probably our best chance and we took advantage of it. Like them we had our share of chances but the defenses and the keepers kept coming up big.

That's the way the games always go. The players have a lot of pride and take this seriously. There's a lot of pride on the Newsome sideline. They've been to a final four. It's the same here.

We have had our games where sometimes it takes an hour to get to Gaither.

We know them very well and they know us very well. I expect it to be a fantastic match.

We have been knocking on the door for the last three or four years. We feel this team was knocking on the door last year and that we had a stronger team this year. We wanted it.

This team is very resilient. Every week presented a new challenge, but I knew there was potential all along.

It was a through ball and Kelsey had a lot of effort. Kelsey's strong and powerful, and she made a great run.

For me, it was one of her best moments. She was trying to round everybody up and trying to make everybody feel good about their season and what they did.

It was OK, we've got to play better next time. There's a lot more on the line so we have to play better.

They were real nervous in the beginning. We got more into a rhythm, realized we could play with them and then I think our fitness helped us a lot.

They were very sad. But we haven't had her all year long. (Thursday) was just her third match after surgery on her knee. We lost her after the first match of the season. But she's the heart and pride of this team.
