I'm proud of the girls for the way they fought only, having five healthy players. The girls just went out there and fought really hard and that's all we can ask for. I'm proud of them and hopefully we'll get healthy soon.

We came out loose and ready to play, but they came out on fire. I'm extremely proud of the girls for their performance today.

This is going to be a hostile environment match. Saint Mary's is playing extremely well this year and having really good success. I would like to have a better showing than the last time we played.

We have new teams that have meshed well together. Our doubles have been fantastic so far. We have really become the aggressor when we take the court. This is how doubles is supposed to be played.

Today was a tough day emotionally and physically. Most of us had been up since 5:30 a.m. and to travel and play a night match all on the same day was rough. I'm just proud of the girls that they were able to compete hard and get the job done.

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.
