Quotes by Julie Craven

“The girls played well and together and were intense the whole match.”

“I think the girls came out really intense to win all of our matches in two games. I think the girls are starting to trust each other and play as a team. They played well together and are starting to click a little more.”

“Heidi stepped in for us and had some great serves for us. We got a lot of points off of her serves. I think just her placement (was excellent), she was probably the most accurate for us.”

“I think they just had some runs on us. You cant give a team like that leads. It is hard to come back against a team like Sycamore.”

“The girls fought until the end, so I have to be happy about that. We held them and had a little run, but it is hard to come back.”

“The girls fought until the end, so I have to be happy about that, ... We held them and had a little run (at the end), but its hard to come back. We just have to keep fighting, go point by point, stay aggressive and play smart.”

“We have to continue to work on passing so we can run our offense a little better, ... We have to be more accurate so we can run the faster offense.”

“We made a lot of mental mistakes. But we showed what we are capable of doing tonight. We got close in a lot of games in the Grayslake Tournament this past weekend but we couldnt find a way to finish. Hopefully we changed that tonight.”

“Game one, we got off to a great start and pretty much dominated the entire game. Game two, we got off to a slow start and we were down 4-11 and then 7-15, but the girls really stepped up and increased their intensity.”

“We just made some mental errors at the end of the games. We had some close games that we couldnt quite finish at the end.”
