easy family ready sacrifice settle
This isn't an easy thing to do. You sacrifice a lot to play on this team, and you're away from family and friends. I'm ready to settle down.
home
We?re a little subdued, but we?re happy. We go home with some hardware.
mind
It's uncomfortable. I don't mind supervision, but that was too far.
absolutely closer fans fun game games seeing
It's absolutely important that for this sport to grow, we need closer games. A 16-0 game is not fun for the fans. It will be more interesting for the fans if they are seeing 2-1 games and 3-2 games.
bronze easy older proud
It's a bronze medal, and they're not too easy to come by at the Olympics. I think we'll be pretty proud of it... when I'm older and I can show my kids. I have the whole set now.
definitely difficult picked task
It was definitely a difficult task for the coaches. We didn't know who would be picked for the team.
few
They battled hard. We got a few too many penalties, but we battled through, and I'm proud.
couple olympic scares softball worry
I think it scares a couple of us. We were around when softball was made an Olympic sport, and we were so happy. It's just something you've always got to worry about.
happy home subdued
It was subdued after the game, but we're happy to go home with at least some hardware.
black girl kicking people racism
It's really good. I'm kicking racism into touch. I'm black and I'm a girl so people say you can't play football. You can. I am.
definitely easily easy fall hang test win
That was definitely a test for us. We battled hard. That wasn't an easy win for us. We had to hang together. We couldn't fall apart. We have a young team. We could have easily folded. But we didn't.
hurt power regular stood
(Martin) stood on her head, to be honest. We had opportunities on the power play, we had opportunities on regular shifts and we didn't put them home, and I think that's what hurt us.
definitely goal hard playing
That will definitely be in the back of my mind. I want to keep playing hard for the team, but that is a goal I will think about.
