I think they understand that when I come here to play ball, I'm here 100%, ... I'm going to work as hard as everybody else works. We're going to work on what's in the future, not the past.

I think everybody's got different methods of working which suit the particular individual. Mine is to sort of play the part, and give 100%, to concentrate and focus on it while I'm actually working, but then leave it behind until the next day.

With our height we don't want to play too much of a half-court game against a bigger team. We don't know a lot about Sacramento Adventist so we've had to prepare for everything, which is a little frustrating. We're definitely not taking them lightly.

We just didn't make the play or the pitch we needed to win the game. You're not a human being if that doesn't sting.

I'm chomping at the bit to play this year. When I came back from the injury, I was only batting .150 and it was hard because I knew that I was better than that. I really can't wait for the season to begin.

They've finally reaped the benefit of their hard work. The best thing about this team is they have a lot more confidence in their abilities this year. They feel like they have a chance every week.
