chance felt gave good people players
I think we felt like we had a chance to be a pretty good defense. And the only people that gave us a chance were the players and the coaches.
good
We have a lot of (younger) fans, and this is a good thing.
best cannot definition game good overcome stupid
We cannot play our best game and still put out the win. Penalties, stupid mistakes, things that used to get us down, we're able to overcome now. That's the definition of a good team.
determine good officials outcome people seemed speak start
When the officials start to determine the outcome of the game, people have to speak up. It seemed just about every good play we had was called back.
ahead pay played quality satisfied stand talent team watch
I thought we played satisfied hockey. We were ahead of a quality team and we just let off. If you stand around and watch a team with the talent they have up front, you're going to pay for it.
clutch nervous
I thought Shawn was going to be nervous and scared, but he never was. He's been really clutch so far.
exam game games hurt job played ready saturday week weekend win
I think that exam week hurt us, but we haven't played well in a Saturday game yet. We just need to do a better job on our weekend games. We've got to come ready to play, as the games just don't win themselves.
both excited together
We're both really excited about it. We'll probably end up rooming together so it should be really cool.
came forward looking schedules since talking yeah
Yeah it's a big rivalry. We've been doing a lot of talking over the summer. Ever since the schedules came out everyone was looking forward to this game.
allowed bats came continue four hits innings picking point runners score scoring seven struggle three
We continue to struggle to put seven innings together. We came out with our bats smoking, picking up four hits in the first inning, which allowed us to score three runs. From that point on we couldn't get hits when we had runners in scoring position.
feet moving results shown starting though
We are starting to get back on track. We are moving our feet better, even though the results haven't shown on the scoreboard.
easy game great hard plan work
We work hard in practice. They make such a great game plan during the week, it makes it so easy in the game.
behind fast fourth games pitchers point run sat six walks win within
We battled back to within a run in the fourth inning. From that point on, our pitchers got behind in the count. So, their batters sat on the fast ball. You can't win many games when you give up six walks in an inning like we did in the fourth.
bad listen quickly saying turn turned
We've got to keep going out and doing our thing. Don't listen to anything anybody's saying because it can turn bad as quickly as it turned good.
