Ultimately, our defense let us down the entire week, and we were unable to generate a lot of offense or come up with clutch hits.

This was a good win for us, even though our bats cooled off significantly. We failed to make some adjustments until late in the game, but we wanted to go into the vacation week at 3-0, and we accomplished that goal.

Somehow in the locker room we lost our intensity. Defense is so important to us. When our intensity drops, we're not as tough defensively and we rely on our defense to start our offense.

The key for us was our defense. Our 'D' puts us in a position to go on a run like we did.

The defense played fantastic. They gave us the ball and great field position. We didn't do anything offensively until the third quarter. They won the game for us.

We made some turnovers early in the game, and we never recovered. Their aggressive defense got to us, and it affected our offense.
