“We played a great game. They were the best team we faced the whole weekend. They have some really fast and skilled players, but our defense held them. If the only goal we give up is one from 45 yards out, then I'm happy with our performance.”
“They packed it in and really played defensive against us. We played well, but we just couldn't get it in the net. At halftime, though, I challenged our players, and they really stepped it up. It was really a character-building game.”
“To hold them to 0-0 was a great effort for us. We showed a lot of character not to fold when the put the pressure on us. And to reach the semifinals after losing the first game was good for us, too.”
“Our first goal was to win district, and our second one was to do something that no other class in our school's history has done. You don't get many years to get the chance for something like this, but the girls did a great job at achieving their goal.”
“We had a lot of players out. So the fact that we played everybody and that everyone contributed was good. I'm glad we were able to finish the game (before bad weather hit) because we would have been disappointed if it had ended up being 0-0.”
“It was pouring rain, but we still had 11 different scorers. That shows that we're pressing and not getting lazy. The hardest part is keeping them motivated because a lot of times, the girls know going into a game that they should win, 5-0. So we motivate them to not lower their potential. And every game, they come out mentally focused.”
