You worked hard for the tie and deserve that tie. I wouldn't take that away from anyone for having a great game.

We play each other for a reason. We need this kind of competition to get ready for district. They need to get ready for the playoffs.

Everyone has adjusted well. I'm pleased with the way we've started. We're still many matches away from district.

It wasn't pretty, but a win's a win. We need to continue to step up our game in this district.

We made some mistakes at key points during the match that cost us. We were missing some people, but we still have others who can step up for us and that just didn't happen.

Yes, Alex is playing her first year on varsity, but she's been there before. She came with us to the state playoffs every year. She's a solid midfielder consistent with her play.

That's always a big debate. Not every district uses shootouts. It's not a UIL rule that a district has to use shootouts. I'd like everything to be done statewide, so everyone does the same thing.

I've tied many games as a player. That's part of the game of soccer.

We hope to keep playing with consistency. We played great (Tuesday) and we need to keep it up.
