Coach Hill demands a lot of his players. He's a great coach and a great baseball guy.

We're on the same page with pitch selection. It's been fantastic.

Coach (Jim) Thomas does a great job of teaching game. When his players get to this level, I feel they're a step ahead in baseball knowledge.

The main thing for the team is to get to Oklahoma City for the Big 12 tournament. We need to take small steps, and improve each week.

We're learning every day, and that's why we're turning the corner. I'm trying to take it one pitch at a time and let the defense do its thing. I'm trying to stay within myself.
