We're playing pretty good ball right now. We're fielding around 98 percent and hitting really well. Overall, we're headed in the right direction.

I've challenged the team to make sure in the future when we have leads that we don't let another team back in the game.
against best decided facing kelly match pitcher start success team trying type
Kelly just had more success against Arizona. I was trying to match up the best pitcher against the type of team that we were facing that day, so I decided to start Kelly.
coming hitters hitting multiple point together
I think everything is coming together for us right now. We've got multiple hitters hitting over .400 for us so far. At this point in the season, we're hitting as well as ever.
almost coming fact game hitting home people pleased producing run seems weekend
Haley is hitting a home run almost every game it seems like. Everyone else was producing this weekend too. I'm very pleased with the fact that different people are coming through at different times.
entire errors four goal good hoping practice softball team three week
Our team is way too good to be having two or three errors in a game. We should have just three or four for an entire tournament. Our goal is always to play errorless softball and I'm hoping that the things we did this week in practice will make that happen.
four game games necessary point sweep three whether win
It's necessary that we go out and win a lot of games from this point on. Whether we get three out of four or we sweep this weekend, we just have to play every game like it's a championship game from now on.
against chance great kids match national opportunity top unique
This was a great opportunity for our kids to get a new kind of exposure. Some of our kids won't get to play in the Olympics, so it was a really unique chance for us to see how we match up against a top national team.

We need (Lauren) going down the stretch, especially with the four games this weekend.
coach home player seen three
Three home runs. I've never seen that as a coach or player in my career.
against door shut state threw
We didn't shut the door against Sac State when we should have. But Kristina threw very well, and that was big for us.
effort focused games stay talked week whatever
We should have been out of there in five. We just weren't focused and I was disappointed by the effort. We talked about how important it was to stay focused for games during the week and we just didn't get that kind of effort for whatever reason.
bring definitely difference game ranked teams
We've definitely got to bring our 'A' game this weekend. There's not much difference in the teams we're going to play from here on out. Most of them are ranked in the top-10.
seasons teams
We are disappointed. It was just two teams that didn't want their seasons to end, and I think that's why it went on for so long.
