Scott Hodkinson Quotations

I thought we started the game sharp because we were spreading out the field and moving the ball quickly. But I thought we bogged down a little bit and you can credit Odessa High's defense for some of that.

It's a disappointing loss because I thought we could take these guys. It was a frustrating game.

We moved the ball well, but it was not as clean as I'd like to have seen it. We'll have to be better with our first touch on Saturday.

I think that maybe some of the pressure has been relieved from her by the fact that she's surrounded by some really talented players and that really helps. I don't think she feels that she has to do it all herself. She does a good job of directing things from the back and I tell her to not be afraid to be vocal.

Maybe it was a PK (penalty kick), but I don't think there was any intent and the player has to gain an advantage. That hurt and we let down after that. We started pushing too hard and trying to do too many things.

That's the question mark right now. Chemistry is a big factor.

I don't think I ever felt comfortable. They were dangerous when they had the ball.

The longer the game went without us scoring the more pressure we were putting on ourselves. We took the attitude at halftime that we just needed to settle down and play the easy game ... take the easy pass. We felt like we were the stronger team and we were pressing too hard.

There were some tense moments there in the last 10 or 15 minutes when it was 2-0. I was happy with the win today.

I wasn't really sure what to expect. Last year we went down there and won 1-0 and I think we scored in the last 10 minutes of the game. I just told them we needed to get off to a good start.
