It was a good experience. We learned a lot as a basketball team. It's definitely going to help us.

It's shear joy. For those girls ... we've got five seniors who have dedicated their whole lives to basketball - summer open gyms, summer camps, traveling all over Western Pennsylvania to play games - and I'm happy for them. It's an achievement for them.

It was huge because I knew we had a target on us all year long. A lot of teams were gunning for Union. To do it back-to-back, to me, is more important sometimes than that first one. I was excited about that.

She was phenomenal. Beth felt like we needed a high performance tonight, and she gave it to us.

It was a really, really heavy and intense experience for all of us.

This deal gives us some short-term help ? two pitchers that can help our club ? and in our minds a future everyday front-line center fielder who's not that far away, which is hard to find.
