 Notes & Quotes
Winning Coach Donna Dulle, Mt. Pulaski:
It came down to whoever made the least errors won the match.

About Hall: They have a streaky ballclub and they have lapses in which we take over.

Stephanie Blaum: It was an amazing feeling (playing in the arena). I was overwhelmed.


Lisa Vaughan: We kept thinking about last year's tournament. I was nervous but we'll be ready tomorrow, because now we are prepared.



Losing Coach Lori Polte, Spring Valley (Hall): What is there to say, it's very disappointing, it's very difficult to lose a game when you're playing so well.

After the first game, I told the girls they had fought too hard to let it go.
