An attendance committee looked at the enrollment and Pinkham still has room while Washington is quite full.

In our lineup there was an opening. But she still had to earn it. Our needs ended up being her strengths. She was a Chicago kid, and being close to home was a plus for her.

It's great to be home, but we really haven't been here. We have to establish more of a home feeling.

It just isn't right to take private property and pass it in the hands of other individuals.

It was basically two different games and two different pitchers. We had some trouble figuring out (Brittney) Robinson, but I was very proud of the way we bounced back.

America is about having hope and owning land. And knowing that it's yours today and tomorrow.

Your year in school doesn't determine the contribution you'll make. The underclassmen are talented and they're very experienced from playing travel ball in the summer. They bring a lot of skill and energy to our team.

As a team we want to set a bar one day and improve upon it the next.

The more options we have the better we are. It makes it harder for our opponents to prepare for us. If someone has a bad day we have options.

You either move on or you don't. If you don't, you're not getting better. We moved on today.
