Ashley had an outstanding game. She's not a strikeout pitcher, but she did the job today.

I expect the market to be down today but continued concerns of winter season supply will put a high floor in prices.

It's progression. I certainly pitched better today than last week. I have to get better each week and get ready for conference play.

All of the teams are going to be tough; I wouldn't want to predict who will win. They have good pitchers in this tournament, and anybody can have a good day. I just hope our defense holds up and we don't make errors, because any time you put the ball in play, that's what can happen.

It was supposed to be a squeeze, but we froze up. After that, I told our coaches we had our chance (to score runs) and we blew it. I was just hoping we would get another chance later.

This year, we've played good defense, and we're playing well together. We weren't bringing runners home early in the season.
