Pam Adams Quotations

We've always been known for our defense. We have so many seniors and they've worked so hard. Defense is just what we try to do.

We're at a disadvantage, because there's kind of a gag order in the Fayetteville area --none of the coaches will talk about other teams. We've just found out what we can.

We didn't win both like we would've liked, but we still won three of four, which is always a good thing.

She's fine. She's pretty sore, but she's fine.

She basically lit it up. She was very effective.

If we can keep their scores down and score a few, then that's going to open up some doors for us.

Cassidy pitched well in that game. We should have won it for her.

It hurts. The kids were a mess after the game - we all were.

Our pitchers have to do a better job moving the ball and changing speed.

That baton was handed to them and now they have to hand off the baton to the juniors. It's tradition and they've picked it up and ran with it.

I was very happy with our defense. In three of the quarters they had four, five, and five points, and that's just us playing with a lot of heart and on Senior Night that was great for them. We were on the floor for every loose ball and we got after it.

It definitely was a defensive battle -- almost like a chess match. And at the end, for those last few minutes, it was just pure grit.

We need to play better (today). We just need to come out swinging. We still think we can get it done.

We really should have scored 10 runs in that game.

We played solid ball (Friday). (Today) we play a really good South Dakota State team.

We have more in us than we showed. I hope we find it (today).

We need to find a way to get healthy. And then come out firing at Regis.

We didn't play our best (Friday). But we're still right in it. We're pretty beat up, but we're right there.

We had some pretty pooped kids at the end of that third game. But hopefully we can stay focused with just two games in a day.

We had to get back on track going into the states. This was a great conference and we had to find a way to get back on track.

We had a little bad luck. Barb usually catches anything coming at her, but this was a weird thing.

We had some communication problems on how far to go down the court. We just made a little adjustment.

Sometimes, you get stuff thrown at you that incorporates all of your learning.

They were just good games. Most teams are pretty tired at this point in the season, and the injury bug has got us a little bit.

This is a fickle, fickle game. We've just got to come back (today). We're playing hard, we just didn't get the wins.

They never quit. We could never put them away. But the bottom line is to win and move on.

There was good pitching in the first game for both sides. We each got a break and scored with an error, but then we earned the winning run.

It was close, we just couldn't hang on. We were up, and they came back on us.

It's tough to get that fourth game on somebody.

It's kind of like a scavenger hunt. You get on the Internet, and you try to find coaches who'll talk to you. ... We're exhausted trying to find stuff.

It's our first ever on Hays. At least, I know it hasn't happened in my seven years (as coach). I don' think we've ever split to win three of four to win three games is really special.

Everybody has talent. You'll adjust when necessary, but the bottom line is that you'll need some luck, too. Some things, you can't plan, and you're just happy when they go in your favor.

It was a good day for us. We really played well.

In that second game, we just started hitting better and better and better.

The important thing about tonight's win is that it gave us the conference outright. We talked about how important that was before the game.

You've got to give a lot of credit to Regis. They are a solid team.

The girls have felt the pressure to get back. We are a different team than last year. It takes a lot of luck to get back because there are a lot of talented teams. I can only hope we do as well this time around.
