I was very proud of how we (overcame) situations where, last year, we would've laid down. This time, we didn't let that happen.

We weren't aggressive today. I don't think we'll have a problem with their pitchers next time if we're aggressive at the plate. We struck out looking too many times. We need to put the ball in play and make them play defense.

We had a few little things we need to work on, but it's only our fourth time outside. We're doing well. I'm very happy with today. ... (Bullock Creek) is a good team, and I'm happy to come out of here with a split today.

The first game, we played all right. Dow played tough all the way through, and we kind of gave that one up. Katie pitched well.

I'm not worried about our future. We hadn't played in two weeks, and we came out tonight and looked like we hadn't played in two weeks. We'll be all right.

Sometimes life is a constant battle against the nostalgia of a time that can never be real again.
