Dale Buvid Quotations

We stumbled. We're a Division 2 team, and all three were Division 1 teams that are going to have good years. We do think we can beat those teams, but on Saturday that didn't happen. We're still 1-0 in conference. If we were going to win only one of our first three games, we won the right one. It's still early.

Pitchers are generally ahead of hitters early in the season. She is pretty good at changing speeds but I thought we did a nice job of making adjustments when we needed to.

We're carrying a big roster and it's hard to play everybody at times. When you get a chance in games like this to get a lot of people some playing time, it's nothing but good.

Timely hitting continues to be an issue. We had a great time, the weather was great and we got everybody into the game.

To beat these guys you have to play almost a flawless game. Give them credit, they made a few more plays than we did tonight. We're not happy with the result. We're going to fight hard to win all our other conference games so when they come to our place it means something.

When you're struggling a bit offensively, you try sometimes to generate some offense. Give them credit for making those plays.

We actually save the school district a little money by playing these games. There are no bus transportation costs and no umpires to pay.

We'll have fun at Disney for two days. It's not really about winning and losing when you're down here.

We're in a bad rut, there's no doubt about that. This isn't the way we've played offense the last couple years.

We seem to be headed in the right direction. That was a good ball club we beat. Timely hitting has been a problem, but today we got the hits when we needed them.

It's 50 percent for softball, 50 percent for fun. It allows us to see some quality teams and play in nice weather.

It was bang-bang. It was a nice play by McArdle and Wyss to beat her back to the bag. Wyss got to a couple balls up the middle today showing her great range. She's a very, very good defensive player.

It's frustrating because we didn't get it done offensively. They found a way to win.

It took a long time. The first few years were a struggle. There's been a lot of parent and community support for the team in recent years.

In games like that, sometimes you have to get a little lucky or get a break.

I'm real proud of the eighth inning after what they did in the sixth. She mowed them down.

(Beckman) did a decent job. She didn't get the ball down like she has been doing, and there were a few close calls that didn't go her way. This is a tough venue. It's tough when you haven't been here before.
