Love had a good tournament; he got two pins for us and I was happy -- he got 8 points for us. I think Donovan scored eight points as well.

Nothing is taken for granted.

It would have cost us about $630 just for gas for a pickup truck and trailer,

This was a critical win for us. Our guys were hungry. We were kind of stumbling and bumbling offensively, especially in the first half. But we gave the kind of over-the-top performance on defense that got us back on track tonight.

Jessica made some great saves, keeping us in the game there. They had a lot of pressure on us, but defensively, we did a good job. All in all, a 1-1 tie was a good result.

That is the first game this year Louis hasn't led us in scoring.
