Considering all the transitions the program has made and all the new things these girls have had to endure and learn, we'll take where we are. I'd rather be 3-3 right now than 1-5.

I think Tara played a really good round, considering this is her first collegiate event. Elaine played a good round but had one bad hole, which really hurt her score. Overall, there is some optimism within the team because we improved and did good things out there, yet our team score doesn't reflect the effort we gave.

She [Serrano] pitched outstanding, and when you pitch a no-hitter, I don't know too many coaches that complain about that. It makes life pretty easy.

Hopefully as we go along in the season we play better and we start playing better competition. But whoever you go out there (against), the object is still the same.

It's just one of those things. Katie is just going to have to stay patient and do what she can.

We had phenomenal pitching, and when you can take their offense and shut it down like Ashley did, that was awesome.
