Kris Kalivas Quotations

We spotted them a good 10 (points) in the first quarter. We played a real nice second quarter, defensively. Unfortunately, we didn't duplicate that defensive effort the rest of the ballgame.

She knows that that's her role. I think she's accepted it. I think she's accepted whatever role we've put her in. She's just a kid that goes hard every time she steps on the floor. Finishing her free throws is part of that.

I was happy with how the kids came out in the second half. They really stepped up and weren't afraid of the contact, and they went up strong with the ball.

That's the way it always is. We're a very balanced ball club and a very even ball club.

With the way we were playing, I felt I needed to reinforce that just a little stronger during that timeout.

Unfortunately, we've struggled as of late with consistency. I think we look at the scoreboard, we see we've tied or taken the lead and we relax. The last three games it has cost us.

We would like to cut down on the strikeouts, but that will come through facing live pitching. We just didn't put the ball in play when we needed to.

We were a little flat early on. I thought we got our legs under us in the second half, and were able to build the lead as the game went on.

We're not able to capitalize on our momentum. When we do have it, we lose it immediately.

The momentum shifted back their direction, and when it came crunch time, they stepped it up and we got scared. They picked up their defensive pressure, and instead of us reacting to that and stepping up to that challenge, we went the other direction.
