We are getting confidence in what we do. We have a good sequence now and we feel pretty good.

We're excited. We had a good practice out there yesterday in the field and it will be good to be home so we can start to find out our routine. We've had some pretty good success here on our home field, so we're looking forward to playing and opening it up.

We've felt good and the past two games we haven't made any errors. We got some pitching and some timely hitting. We really manufactured some runs and played more of our game, so I think we've turned the corner here. We're pretty excited to get back into things right now.

It gives you an advantage. The second game we got a little better swings at her and the third game the same. It just helps -- you have an idea of what they are throwing.

Our chemistry is awesome, the best in my four years here. We all got to be on the same page. It's great to see people pulling for each other on the bench.

Our pitching is really coming around. They are starting to get comfortable.

We could have put Austin away with one or two more runs. They were down and dead.

We want to get all the games in that we can. We know we are going to lose a few to weather up north so we don't want that to happen down south. We didn't get the same opportunity to start getting better.

We did a pretty good job. It's just hard to lose no matter what the circumstances.

It's a tough weekend. You need some breaks to beat some of the bigger teams. We need day-to-day consistency to keep ourselves in games in the sixth and seventh innings and get some big plays. We are going to grow a lot in a week.

I told my players that we have worked too hard to give up now.

It's a great thing to get a run in the first, you can do more when you're ahead. You can be more aggressive and take more risks.

They just happened to get one more run than we did. I was happy with the effort.

I know our record isn't great, but we've played a tougher schedule than either one of these teams. So hopefully we'll be able to stand out a little bit here.

The freshmen played great. They soaked up everything around them and took time to evaluate the other team. They played with a lot of swagger and hunger.

The coaches were aware, but it was one of those things where you don't say a word about it. A huge groan came out of the dugout when she gave up that hit.
