“Courtney has to get a little more mentally strong on the mound. She's played a lot of competitive softball, but she never got hit as hard as she's getting hit right now. What's happened is it's mentally bothering her. She's thinking, 'Why am I getting hit so hard?' She needs to understand that in Division I, the (Nos.) 1 to 9 hitters are good hitters, it's not just 1 to 5 that's tough. Once she gets a batter on (base), and another, then there's a little bit of a breakdown, and mistake pitches happen.”
Bob Coolen
“When we played softball, I'd steal second base, feel guilty and go back.”
Woody Allen
“This was a nice win. This is the way fast pitch softball should be played, by both teams.”
Chuck Huggins
“I had just retired and was not sure what I was going to do. I hadn't played (softball) in 35 years. The last time was in the service; pickup games in Vietnam when it was safe to do so.”
Bill Porter
“There's still a lot of softball to be played. We would like for the tournament to be here but our goal is to qualify for the tournament.”
Jeanne Arbuckle
“She's played club volleyball and softball. She's our defensive specialist. She's very consistent on the back row. She reads well and is very, very quick. She has a very strong jump serve.”
Lora Pate
“My sister and I would always be playing softball and I appreciate everything I have learned from her. And my brother and I would always be playing each other on the basketball court. I could beat him until he grew too tall for me to guard.”
