“They came out and played hard. They are a hard-nosed team. I'm impressed with the way they played. I don't think we were fully prepared with what they brought us, but once we settled down it worked, and it took us a while to get going. It's a great rivalry, and it's only going to get better in the future.”
“I just think it's a great thing for both teams to have something to play for. It adds a finale to the season. I give [Willis head] coach Gonzales credit for coming up with it.”
“We're a young program. Last year they made the playoffs. This year we have a lot of different girls. Last year was a great experience. The girls have more expectations for themselves this year. We're not looking past this game. We want to keep playing.”
“It's been a special year for us. We've had a really good season. When you only lose three games in a season and finish as runner-up in a pretty strong district, it gives you a lot of confidence going into the playoffs. We need to use that confidence the right way.”
“We've really done remarkable. We couldn't have scored as many goals (around 70 for season) or won as many games without the way the defense has supported us. They've played strong every game.”
