We need to have better situational hitting. We could have lost all three of those games, so we need to use these mid-week games as prep and confidence builders for this weekend.

You're not going to win a lot of ball games with only two hits.

Again, we gave up a run in the first inning. That's three games in a row we gave up a run in the first. Hopefully, that won't happen (today).

Big players have to show up in big games -- and this is a big game.

We've been in some close games when we've let down. When that happens you need to make plays. All it takes is one play. Today our defensive line played strong all day and their blitzing was very effective.

We're a young, inexperienced team, and we have to learn how to win games. We have six freshmen and five sophomores and a junior without a lot of experience. That's the tale of the tape right now.
