38 Quotes by Ed Pultz

Last year it was a great battle and it was a close game between two solid teams. Hopefully, what we learned from that game last year, we tried to incorporate all season.

People always ask me what the difference is between last year's club and this year's and this year's we have other people that can step up. We are a little more patient on offense and we can get other people the ball a little bit better.

Our girls came out defensively and hustled. We played with a lot of energy on defense and made things difficult for Ford City.

Out of those eight looks, I don't think many of them were forced shots. The biggest thing was that they weren't falling and, to be honest, I was looking up at the scoreboard and thinking we could be down a lot more.

I think our patience has been the big key for us this year. Compared to last year and some other years, our patience has really, really impressed me this season. We're willing to move the ball around and wait for that good shot.

Maybe that was my fault, in making the girls think too much about what we were going to do. Instead of trying to play the way we played all year, maybe I put too many ideas in their minds, and we weren't able to stop them.

I would imagine that, with four out of the five starters back, nothing much will change. They're aggressive, they're well-coached and it's going to be a challenge.

Whether you're seeded No. 1 or 2 or 3, you have to go in with the same focus. I won't use negative things to focus the girls because that doesn't work for us and this is a different team.

We have some girls who played last year, and I think experience in the playoffs can be a positive factor. I think at this time, you just worry about who's playing that evening and who's playing well and, just because we've been there before doesn't mean anything for that evening because, whoever plays better is going to go on.
