We had some mistakes tonight that we need to work on in the gym. Overall, I'm happy with the girl's performance and we just need to clean up the little things.

It was disappointing to lose to Pittsburgh tonight. We were sloppy tonight and didn't have the clean landings like we did at West Virginia, so those tenths added up in the team score. We always want to see the team constantly improve but there were no major mistakes. We just need to get the routines cleaner and move on to Denver next week.

It wasn't a perfect night but we certainly have positioned ourselves into a best-case scenario to be fifth or sixth in the region when the new standings come out, which is much better than last year. I feel like the team is on a roll right now going into the championship portion of the season. We're anxious to get home the next two weeks and then take it into the Big Ten championship.

We are coming off a good win at the All-Ohio Championship and are ready to start in to our Big Ten schedule. We definitely have areas in which we need to improve in order to challenge Michigan State and will be focusing on improving our event totals, specifically on the beam. It should be a very good match up and a close competition.

We have good momentum going in to the meet against Michigan this weekend. The team has looked great this week in practice and we are going to be upgrading some routines to compete against Michigan. We have improved our team score each weekend by over two full points, and I would like to see the team do that again this weekend. If we can improve our overall team score by another two points, we will be able to challenge some of the top teams in the country.

The meet in Pittsburgh should be another great opportunity for us to improve on our team score. Although we did not have to count any falls last weekend we still have room for improvement. This team has really matured during the first half of the season. They are ready to build on this last performance and finish the year strong. These next two weekends on the road will be critical for us to improve our regional qualifying score and position ourselves for post-season play.
