Buffy Baker Good Quotations

It's knowing and letting good be good enough, and believing that their good is going to be fine. When that's not working, just trying not to do more than what they are capable of doing. Once they play within themselves, they put themselves in a position to do the right things, string points together, and that wins you games.

There is good energy there. They're still learning but they're accepting the challenge. Not it's just getting them to shake off the nerves.

St. John's has quite a few international students on their team, some good players that we have seen at regional qualifiers. A team that will force us to step up and compete, that will press us and make us play which is what we want.

I think they are going into their doubles matches with more confidence because they've had more confidence in that area. We know we can be successful, and we know we have good doubles teams. They've been getting better. It's been more finding chemistry between partners that will be able to complement each other.

I would like to see us come out and get a lead early on and maintain that. To know when and how momentum is available to us and just reach out and grab it. I feel like we have it knocking at the door, and some of our girls are oblivious that it's there to be taken. Whether that be showing good body language, like pumping a fist, or continuing with the same game plan.

I'm upset we lost two tough matches, but I'm not upset with the team's progress. Every weekend, it's a matter of who's managing the emotional state of where you are in season, and we did a good job of managing that.

Each time we show up, we've got two good teams out there trying to win, trying to compete, and that puts us behind the eight ball.
