5 Quotes by Krista Mikesch

We started slow, but we once we started to play Michigan Tech volleyball everything started to work out. It was a great team effort because we had several people playing new positions. The girls stepped up to the challenge and I am very proud of the way they were able to earn a win on a very difficult road trip.

From a fan's perspective, it was probably a great game to watch. I thank all the fans we had come out ... all the benefits are going to Hurricane Katrina (relief efforts), which is really the importance of this match.

I told our girls I was happy with the way they fought back and took it to five games, but I thought we never should have been in that position. We were a little wrapped up in what they were doing ... they forced us to play their game instead of ours.

It's always great to get a sweep on the road, especially this road trip. For the first time all year everyone had a chance to play and that will be important for those players later in the year.

I just told them if they played Michigan Tech volleyball and played the way they play every day in practice, that they'd take this to five. If we play Michigan Tech volleyball, there's not a lot of teams that can compete with us ... it's just learning that lesson.
