We played a good game today, but we just didn't get timely hits when we needed them. Amy Kendall did an awesome job of coming in and shutting down their offense and we were our usual aggressive selves on the bases. We played well, but it just didn't work out today.
This was a disappointing day but not because of the outcome, but because of our lack of effort and toughness. We definitely didn't play to our full potential and with the effort we played with in Vegas or against Kent State. The end of the second game was a little better, but we shot ourselves in the foot too early on. At least we got back on the right track for tomorrow.
Hitting for the cycle is a great accomplishment for any batter. That was a pretty amazing thing to witness tonight, especially since Brooke was able to do it in four at-bats.
The bottom of the batting order really came through for us today and Amy Kendall did a great job on the mound. We need to do a better job with our short game and getting some bunts down.
We weren't as sharp as I would've liked us to be. But good teams find a way to win, and we did that today.
With a public loss like that, the issues are very different because you are in the media. People that don't know you know. You can't hide. You get no relief anywhere. I'm sure in the supermarket people are whispering. It makes it very different. The fact there are kids involved is always very tragic.
Indiana is a little bit like us. They're in a tough conference and trying to re-build the program. It should be a good game when we go head-to-head tomorrow.
We need to keep our confidence up. If we start over and play well we can still accomplish what we set out to.
