Val is doing very well. She got some experience last year as a junior. Now she's our go-to pitcher. She's making it easier on everyone.

We have to get rid of that one bad inning. It has happened in every game we've lost, but we've also won in spite of it.

We just have to get her on base and she makes things happen.

Our players have been making things happen. Today it was Kaila Burns. She was determined to keep the inning alive.

We want to compete for the section title and progress further than the first round of the playoffs.

It was tight. They?re a good team, a solid team. It?s a good experience to have a close game and make the right decisions at the end and come out on the winning end of it. I was very pleased with the effort.
