It's a disappointing loss because I thought we could take these guys. It was a frustrating game.

challenge felt girls message mission owed proud reckoned send team
The girls were on a mission to send a message that we are still a team to be reckoned with. Having Permian was kind of a challenge for us, and I think the girls felt like we owed them one from that first game. I was proud of their effort.
attitude easy felt game halftime longer needed pressure putting scoring settle stronger team took
The longer the game went without us scoring the more pressure we were putting on ourselves. We took the attitude at halftime that we just needed to settle down and play the easy game ... take the easy pass. We felt like we were the stronger team and we were pressing too hard.
ball bit bogged credit defense field game moving sharp spreading
I thought we started the game sharp because we were spreading out the field and moving the ball quickly. But I thought we bogged down a little bit and you can credit Odessa High's defense for some of that.

I think that maybe some of the pressure has been relieved from her by the fact that she's surrounded by some really talented players and that really helps. I don't think she feels that she has to do it all herself. She does a good job of directing things from the back and I tell her to not be afraid to be vocal.
came difference game girls hopefully learn lost obviously score talking thinking though thursday tough
It was a really well-played game. Obviously the way we lost the game was tough for the girls. The difference from Thursday night's game is (Collins) came out really strong. Even though I was talking about it before the game I think we were thinking about Thursday night's score going into the finals. Hopefully we'll learn from this.
