Tina Deese Against Quotations

That was a great first day of SEC play. The key now will be to keep it up Sunday and close out the series with a sweep of Kentucky. That will be a challenge against a hungry Wildcat club.

Beth has impressed early on this season. Against Kentucky, she got ahead in the count and hit her corners. She really looked good in her first SEC start of the season.

Beth had a great game from the circle. She was commanding, and the only real solid hit against her was the single in the eighth.

This was a great way to start out the tournament. Our bats were hot and Holly used that to her advantage. Now we look forward to our game against Florida Atlantic, which is a very dangerous team. We will need to be focused.
