Competitiveness is the one area I stress to the team every day and that's our biggest attribute. Everyone on the team is held accountable by their teammates to go out there and get the job done.

Her number one attribute is her competitiveness. She refuses to let her team lose. She refuses to be stopped.

The whole team has really stepped up their game this fall. I'm expecting great things from everyone -- even the freshmen are expected to come in and make an impact.

This is a team that is a Division III powerhouse. We are excited about this match and are entering it prepared and ready to play. If we can stay aggressive and get on top of them early, I think we will be fine.

Washington State is a team that should be ranked and is very good. We had a tough battle with them last year and I expect the same this year. They have a tough No. 1 who is ranked very high nationally and they also have some big hitters down the line-up.

After the tough loss to UC Santa Barbara, I expect our team to respond fiercely. We had a little gut check playing a ranked team that was beatable.
