(Mayfield) has been stepping up for us. He had some big games in the region tournament and he picked a good time to have one of his best games of the year.

Men do not really live for honors or for pay; their happiness is not in the taking and holding, but in the doing, the striving, the building, the serving

That was a well-deserved honor. She pitched admirably and kept us in all three ball games. I'm really proud of her.

If we can pick up six points from two games then we can close up on the teams above us and make a real fight of it.

I remind them of a few games that got away from us and the mistakes we made in those games. I remind them of the three years we worked to get to this point and the sacrifices they made over the summers and everything the team and the community did for us and we don't want to have brain freezes once we get out there. They have never backed down from a challenge since I've been there.

These are the type of games where we all have to step up, and we just didn't do it. I didn't agree with the foul calls, but I shouldn't have fouled out. And all of us had to score more. We all know we didn't do enough to win.
