It's been a combination of issues for us. A lot of it depends on how we do in the circle, but we also have to play defense and hit. I really don't like (losing) because it's frustrating. But I do think everybody is trying to figure it out.

Successful pitching is reflected in the won-loss column. If our pitching staff performs well, our team as a whole will do well. Pitching is very important in the game of fast-pitch softball.

Christa got ahead of her batters and had the ball moving. She pitched an outstanding ball game. I'm very excited for her performance.

We are beating ourselves. We're giving them too much, giving them too many opportunities. We need to make them earn their way on base.

Kent State is coming from behind and scoring a lot of runs. They are playing confidently. It should be a challenging weekend.

In order for us to be effective as a pitching staff, we have to get ahead in the count. We have to make them earn their way to the base. We can't continue to give out free passes.

It's very important that we make a move now. We have to start playing better, although I feel our record would be a lot better if we had got to play all of our games (of which five have been cancelled). We're worried about one game at a time and we just have to have confidence that we can get the job done.
