We practice them throwing to the bases all the time, and if they don't get it right they have to do the rep over and over and over again. They've gotten to the point where they don't do the reps that many times because they know to throw to the appropriate bases and get the kid out.
I think they just got a little bit frustrated. They are not used to not hitting the ball the way they are used to and some frustration came into play.
She understands everything. She's a great field general. I think we have tremendous strength up the middle.
Where we're standing currently in the conference doesn't mean anything. It's too early to throw in the towel -- it's one weekend of many weekends that's left to play.
Well, defensively we're returning all of our starters so if I don't have confidence in our defense then we're in trouble. I expect more of the same.
I think this team understands what the Big Ten conference is all about. It's pretty tough to say we're going to win a Big Ten title with Michigan returning but we expect to be in the thick of it.
I'm more concerned with how we perform as opposed to outcome. If we get out of the gate and are doing things well and we end up losing some of those games, that's okay because that's what you build on. If you come out sloppy and win a game, that's going to come back to hurt you.
Sometimes, St. Francis comes in here and gives us a scare -- not that I'm not confident that we will beat them -- but if you don't take them seriously, you could end up on the wrong end of that stick.
It's really hard when you get 12 hits in the first game, and you think you're going to do the same in the second game. You need to prepare. The second game is always different than the first game.
It's pretty tough to say we're going to go out and win the Big Ten title with Michigan returning. But our aspirations are to battle for a Big Ten title.
