It's different than it was last year. We graduated a lot of kids last year. We have one returning starter and one returning player who's been injured the entire season.

I sat her one time, just to make an example out of her. It was on a Saturday and she came to practice late. We had to call her and wake her up.

We take it one game at a time, but we're looking down the road, too. This time of the year most teams are. That's something we have as a goal, to play beyond the regular season.

Christina stepped up for us. She has been playing well throughout the holidays and has improved for us.

What they've done is take the other younger kids under their wings and give them leadership. We're not the most athletic team, but something's working for us.
