25 Quotes by Steve Wammer

When Leah got hurt, Sam was kind of our only pitcher. She went through a stretch where she had the ball every game and she handled that very well. And once they started pitching in tandem, it helped us a lot.

We weren't as sharp in the early going of game two as we should have been. We made some mistakes in the field. But Aurora threw very well and we picked it up as the game went along.

We kind of caught a break there. But we were able to take advantage of that. We always battle until the final out.

We had a good week. We're 7-7 now, and we got a chance to get a lot of games in with nice weather. I think this is the strongest up and down lineup we've ever had. Defensively we gave up a lot of unearned runs. We're trying people in new positions, and it was the first time outside. In the next two weeks we'll try to shore up the defense.

We were pretty close. We had a lot of games that we had a chance to win and couldn't get over the hump. But that's a good sign and in the next couple of years, we'll hopefully start being able to win some of those games.

We hit the ball better (the second game). We're struggling playing defense. In the first game we had mental errors. In the second game we had physical errors, but we cut down on the mental errors. With enough repetitions, the physical errors should go down.

We didn't hit the ball well, there's no two ways about it. And that's something that we'll need to address as a team next season.

Sam pitched very well today. She's at her best when she is throwing strikes, getting ahead in the count and putting the ball in play so the defense can make plays behind her. She did all those things today.

Adding Nordic skiing to our roster of sports is just one more way we are increasing the opportunities for Northland College students, as well as attracting new students. We've found the students who come to Northland thrive on outdoor sports, like skiing. Our location is a prime for skiers and we are really pleased to offer this competitive opportunity.
