Jamie Pinkerton Quotations

We were close. We need to find some way to get over the edge. We had an opportunity to win and didn't do it.

Obviously, we didn't come out and start well. We did a bad job of making adjustments. We've got to be focused for seven innings to win games.

Obviously, Sunday is our day. We picked up some hitting after a slow start and we had timely hitting. This team is young. They are learning how to win and win close games.

If we get solid pitching and play like we did against Missouri Sate for seven innings, we'll be fine. It's going to come down to the team who gets timely hitting and doesn't make the critical mistakes.

Four freshmen started tonight and they're learning how to win with good senior leadership. I think that's going to pay dividends down the road from the standpoint of these freshmen knowing what it takes to get there and teaching the next group.

That was a well-deserved honor. She pitched admirably and kept us in all three ball games. I'm really proud of her.

That was a good win against a very good ball club. The key thing is they are learning how to win.

We need to continue to play like we've been playing all season. We just need to be relaxed and go out there and play a good, solid seven innings. Hopefully, we'll have an opportunity to be in a position to win some games while we're here.

This team is playing really well right now. They are a very good hitting team. Their pitching is doing extremely well right now. It?s definitely going to be a good contest.

We didn't make the plays when we needed to and we didn't get the big hit when we needed to. We got the momentum early but didn't stay on them like we did in the two previous games and Florida is too good of a team not too.

We had pitching and defensive breakdowns, but I?m proud of the way we battled back.

It's just really frustrating because I thought in this series we had an opportunity to win all three games. And I think that's a frustrating thing when you're so close. And I think we're so close, but we're still a ways off.

That's the best pitcher in the country, period. She's simply the best. That's the best you're going to see in the conference.

I want to congratulate Katy. She pitched admirably and kept us in all three games she pitched this weekend.

You can't get mad at Katy. Katy has carried us for most of the year, and she just had a bad day.
