19 Quotes by Holly Vlymen

She is a true team player. It's not about the playing time, it's not about the numbers, it's not about anything besides the team succeeding and that is very evident in her play.

Obviously, her bat is what got me interested. She hit the ball extremely well, but her arm strength from behind the plate was also a key reason why we brought her on.

We talked a lot about working the count more when we're hitting. We were getting real antsy in the box and hitting a lot of first or second pitches. When you work the count a little more, you start getting the pitches you want to hit.

Green has stepped up big time for us. She has called some great games and has also done tremendous at the plate. She was a walk-on in the fall and I didn't know what to expect out of her but she's done very well in stepping in for (junior catcher) Erin Zeller, who has been battling a shoulder injury.

(Green) has really turned it on lately. She's been really fun to watch and I just keep telling her to keep on doing whatever she's doing.

We've gotten away from looking at the process of the game. We start looking at the big picture, and we start thinking about (winning all the games in a series). Right now we're blowing this up way too big, and that's what we did during the (losing streak). We need to play the game pitch by pitch.

We have to keep playing like we've been playing in conference. Playing (Iowa and Illinois State University) is helping us to get ready for Southern Utah because they are going to be tough. These teams showed us what we need to work on, so we can get ready for the weekend.

We're lucky to get to travel as much as we do. We've been blessed to have great weather so far and we have even played through some cold games over at Indiana State (University) where it was around 35 degrees.

Disappointing. We had two games that we just basically gave to them. We needed to win the first game in each day and we didn't do it.
