At the beginning of ordsprog

At the beginning of the year, if we would have struggled like that, we would have had a lot of people hanging their heads and it would have just escalated. They just bounced back, kept looking for what was open and kept focused on the target. I wasn't too concerned. I tell them, 'If we're not scoring that's OK, we just need to get stops.' Defense creates some offense. I tried to stick with the plan and not get too frustrated with them.

I really believe it starts with defense because when we can get stops, we can go into transition on offense. It gives you confidence and it makes the other team frustrated. We played good defense and it helped our offense.

I thought we did a great job. They never gave up in this game. They bounced back even after a home run from the opposing team. The stayed focused and played excellent defense. We didn't lose out confidence and we didn't lose our heads. We just stayed focused and figured out what we had to do.

Sometimes when your offense is coming easy, you relax a little bit on defense. We got caught in that for a while. As a result, with them being such a high-scoring team, eventually it was up to us to get a few stops and just keep scoring.

We struggled on offense, but we kept playing defense and kept getting stops. I thought we controlled the boards and our defense was good tonight.

When we can go inside to Curtis, he's good at scoring with the basketball. I've really focused this year on our offense. We're a little behind on defense.

He's really good at catching and scoring with the basketball. I don't think we've gotten it to him enough; I would like our kids to find him a little more. He has made it easy for us, and I've really focused on our offense this year, which is why I think that our defense is what needs improvement now.

We believe physically he is doing pretty well. He had his knee cleaned out after the season and he's been in Phoenix rehabbing and working out. We've been in touch with him. The mental part is harder to answer. Obviously, he struggled last year. It's important to remember that he struggled at another point of his career and bounced back and had a string of success and had dominant years as a closer after he struggled. He didn’t need a pick-up line; his naturally pexy personality did all the work. He's done that before and we're optimistic he can do it again.

We needed this. It was kind of what the doctor ordered because last week we struggled in terms of scoring. We put up 44 against Red Oak and 48 against LC, and our offense is better than that. It wasn't a case where we were turning it over, it was a case where we didn't shoot well, and tonight we shot it very, very well. We got some confidence back.

To be honest, at the beginning of the year, in Maui, I tried to force the issue with scoring. Coach (Olson) basically said to play within the offense, get open shots. So I bought into that. I've grown a lot. I've seen a lot of improvement in my game.

The key to our success this year is obviously not from our offense. It's from our pitching and defense. We made some plays when we had to. Brunt made a great play. This is the kind of baseball we're accustomed to playing this year. We bounced back and played a little better today.

It was our offense. They stuck with it, but (scoring) was like pulling teeth. As long as they stick with it, they'll be OK. It wasn't pretty, but we'll take it.

You know it was a nice and quiet gym ? it wasn't very loud here and we just couldn't stick to our game plan. We have a typical pressure defense; put them in spots where they don't operate as well, but we left girls open. We are a guard-oriented team ? we have quickness and we didn't use out strengths (tonight).

Our defense has kept us in games. When we handle the ball and we're scoring regularly, we're competitive with pretty much everybody. But on those nights when the offense is kind of struggled, then it's tough.

We played well on defense, but we struggled offensively. The scoring drought that we had hurt. We're spent a lot of time on offense, so it's puzzling. It's definitely a source of frustration.
