Van-Far has a nice team and Smith is a really good player. We were down only five at the half, but we just didn't come back out of the dressing room the way we would have liked.

Granted, we played a JV team, but by the same token, instead of messing around, our guys stayed focused and played well.

Their guys did a nice job and the credit goes to Winthrop. They are a very good team.

There really is something nice about it as far as energizing this team. This team has some deadbeats on it, anyway, and the coach is one of them. It's good to have some people out there that are enthusiastic about the game.

We weren't in a good rhythm, not like we should have been, but Van Buren's a scrappy team and they played well. Shepard pitched her heart out.

Donovan is the franchise player here. We built this team around him. We're going to go as far as he takes us, so we all have to be behind him, and that's all 52 (teammates).
