It takes four, five girls to bring her down. She's a natural running threat because she can run over them or around them.

Right, girls. Form a circle and start running. You're quiet tonight - for a change.

They all feed off the fact that she understands only one thing when she's out there: play to win.

She loves the physical part of the game. She feeds off it.

Our camp was very encouraging. Annie (Pickford) is running as well as ever, but other girls are closing the gap. The league will be very strong, but I think we can compete with any team in it.

I know my girls always look forward to running in front of the supportive hometown fans. We've got Columbus (No. 3 in the state) coming to town and we look forward to the challenge.
