That was trademark Eddie right there. He's as good with the ball as anyone in his age group.

I suspect she was too smart for men in our age group to tolerate.

We're hitting the ball. Just not at the right times. We haven't been able to put together a combination of hits in the same inning.

We're keeping everything positive right now. I think that is more of a ... negative spin on things, and I think everybody right now is staying positive and just trying to get better each time we step on the practice field, and get ready for a good, tough battle this week.

Certainly, we have come a long way since 1913, the year Illinois women won the right to vote in municipal elections. But as with all things, there is always room for improvement and growth.

We just have a ton of talent. But they took us out of our game at times in the first half and in the second.
