  • Softball Quotes
    Softball Quotes Go hard every play. You don’t want to leave anything behind and regret it years down the road that you didn’t give it all when you could have. --Ashley DeBuhr, pitcher, Univ. of Nebraska We go out and work hard. We play this game with emotion and love. Coach always says ‘Emotionally, physically, mentally -- come to the field prepared.’ Because if you don’t bring that to the field, you’re going to get beat. --Laura Berg, outfield, Team USA I think that certain players are going to approach the game differently. I am more of a quiet person. I like to have more of a focused energy and internal energy whereas some people need to be bouncing off the walls to be ready for the game. --Caitlin Lowe, outfielder, Univ. of Arizona We’re going to step on the field knowing that every team we’re going against is going to push their game to that whole new level that we probably hadn’t seen. ... We’ve just got to be ready to step up with them --Crystl Bustos, third base, Team USA Always want the ball. --Brittany B., pitcher, Colorado Every time you go out there, you want to be a little nervous, have a little bit of butterflies in your stomach and get the juices flowing. --Taryne Mowatt, pitcher, Univ. of Arizona (On the College World Series) It’s not about the seedings, it’s not about the bats. It’s about these 18 young ladies on each team and how bad they want to win.
