This was a key match for us because the kids need to realize that this is a team, that they can still play and that we have more than one or two key players who can control the game.

For my kids to come back after losing that first match took a lot of gumption. They could have easily died. I'm very proud. They needed to know they could do that.

I don't pay any attention to that (rankings). I like being ignored and staying under the radar.

She's a team player. She goes for everything and puts it all out on the floor. I hate to take her off the court, but we have some strong defenders and we have to play to our strengths.

We've been struggling with that lately. Every once in a while, we'll lose focus and give the other team momentum.

We spread the attack out well. We've got a lot of good hitters and we try to set them all.
