Whatever team they are going to bring they are playing together longer than some of the teams here. It looks to me that the Cuban team may have more cohesion. And they always have pitching. In a short series like that anything can happen.

I want them to get accustomed to playing together. I like the way the outfield looks. They are working well together.

It was a very even game. These two teams have grown up together, and I think they really bring out the best in each other.

All the injuries that we went through, not too many teams could stay together the way we did. Our team could have easily fell apart but Coach Sherman kept a positive attitude. We stayed together through thick and thin. It was rough. We're watching players go down one after another but we continued to battle.

They were a physical, tough team. Those were two teams getting after it and playing aggressive. We didn't outbound them and they got more free throws. Obviously, our big guys having foul trouble had something to do with it.

We played together, much better together as a team. Abby is playing better. Both goalies are playing well.
