“I had a rough first inning. I don't think it was jitters. I was just trying to be too fine, but then I started settling down.”
Clay Hensley
“She had a rough first inning. Hopefully that was just the first game jitters. She settled in after that and threw a real nice game. I was pleased with that and with our defense overall.”
Lori Blade
“I think we had some first inning jitters. You can't make a mistake or two against good teams like this or it's going to burn you.”
Pete Hoffman
“I don't think it was necessarily jitters, ... I was just trying to be too fine in the first inning instead of going after the hitters. After I realized that, that's when things started settling down.”
“I think some of our players have the jitters out in the field. It's the first year of varsity for several of them and some of our veterans are showing a little rust coming out of basketball. We were lucky that the seven errors didn't really hurt us that much. Normally, when you have that many mistakes you're going to lose the game.”
Chad Spalding
“We came out in the first inning with a little bit of jitters, and you can't come out with jitters and make a mistake or two against a team like this without being in trouble. I think once we got through the first inning, Lauren (Popov) really settled down and threw a fantastic game.”
“I think I kind of came out flat. It could have just been first-round jitters or whatever.”
