The difference in the game happened in that inning when their first baseman made that great play and took the momentum. Then they got a few runs and just ran with it.

Erika sets a level of play that everyone aspires to play at. She has been a blessing.

We didn't make routine plays early that could have gotten us out of some innings. But you can't take anything away from Auburn - they made plays they needed and got it done.

They'll definitely get up for that game. We sometimes tend to look at the immediate instead of what it took to get to this point - but they've earned the right to be here.

We've got three region losses by five runs. We needed that one.

We played well as a team. We executed our sacrifices, got two-out hits. That's what its all about - putting all phases of the game together.
