All that stuff takes time, but unfortunately for us, because expectations are so high we've got to come out the gate ready to play. So there's a lot of little things we've got figure out. But when in doubt, you just throw it to Shaq.

That's what I came here for, ... to be able to give us another threat from the (power forward) position.

They wanted this one. This is a big game for us. They beat us 1-0 last time and got a goal late in the third period and we had another chance at them and we got it. Now, all we have to do is go beat Granite City. They beat us this season, and we still have one more shot at them, too.

It took us a long time to gain control of this game. The expectations we have for ourselves are so high, we feel the frustration.

Adrienne has been a stabilizing force for us much of the time in the outfield. Her bat is something that has really come on strong and has been very consistent. She is explosive, powerful and very dynamic on the offensive side.

Bree really exceeded the expectations of a lot of people, I think even including her self. I think it will be a good challenge for her to keep progressing and moving forward while everyone is gunning for her.
