bottom fifth game good situation
We were up 7-0 in the bottom of the fifth and had only one good at-bat. That's a situation where you have to have good at-bats and put the game away in five.
bottom errors extra game learn teams until
It was a back-and-forth game until the bottom of the sixth. We started off with two fielding errors and they had a bases-loaded double. We have to learn not to give teams extra outs.
ran
Lisa (pitcher Koehler) ran out of gas. We got a little tired.
defensive great nice struggled third
We struggled early, but the nice thing about it we rebounded in the third inning on great defensive play.
late matter team
This was just a really well-played game. It was just a matter of which team would get the late break.
game playing softball taking timing together
We're taking our lumps. A lot of it is just playing together and being outside. Softball is a game of timing and you can't get that from the Barnett Center.
errors good improving mentality weekend
Now our errors are not killing us. Our mentality is improving too. It was a good weekend for us.
bat defense great playing swinging
She had a great at-bat. She's swinging the bat well and playing great defense for us as well.
carry gets senior team
She gets better every outing. That's what a senior does. Sometimes they have to take the team on their back and carry them.
enjoy hard team
One thing I enjoy about this team is they play hard and never quit.
ball both capable hitting knew lift teams
Psychologically, it was the lift we needed. Both teams were hitting the ball really well. We were just hitting right with them, which is something I knew we were capable of doing.
against amount awful coach division fortunate great northern opened opportunity position respect tremendous
I've always wanted to be here. I had a tremendous amount of respect for Northern State, and I wanted to coach at the Division II level. I have nothing against the NAIA, I just want to be a Division II coach. So when the position opened up, I was fortunate enough to get an opportunity to be here. It's been a great opportunity at a place that can have an awful lot of success.
days goes ladies respond teams
Days like this happen. Teams have days where nothing goes right. It's how you respond to them. I told the ladies I was disappointed for them and not at them.
audrey cost error instead pitcher rough three
Audrey (starting pitcher Decker) had a a rough start. She should have been down 1-0 instead of 4-0 at the end of the second. An error cost us three runs.
