We have a very strong group of players coming back from last year. We still need to get a lot better, but the conference looks pretty even right now and hopefully we can battle and be somewhere in the running.

These sophomores have limited experience at the varsity level. But they are all playing very well as of now.

We need to learn to communicate better. When we play well, we communicate well. We need to learn how to do that to be more successful.

Megan is out right now and Lindsay has been playing since she was a freshman on varsity. Mindy (a 6-foot-1 right-side hitter) gives us a lot of height up front.

We have some people who can swing, we just have to figure out how to pass and set to get them the ball.

I think people involved in politics make good actors. Acting and politics both involve fooling people. People like being fooled by actors. When you get right down to it, they probably like being fooled by politicians even more. A skillful actor will make you think, but a skillful politician will make you never have to think.
