On the season opener against UCLA…
“We are super excited to start of the season against the defending national champions, I mean there’s no better way to start.”

On the team's expectations for the 2014 season…
“We have high expectations for this year, there’s no reason why we can’t go all the way. If there was ever a year for us to do it, it’d be this one.”

On her goals for this season…
“I definitely think every senior would love to go out on top, but just to have the team chemistry and just to make sure that we go into each game with the mentality that we are in this together as a team.”

On the spring season…
“We got to play the Houston Dash which was great competition considering they are a professional team. They made us play faster, they made us play a lot quicker with the ball and our passing was a lot more smooth.”

“It was just getting out here everyday and working on weaknesses that we may have in order to prepare for the fall and what’s to come.”

On the freshman class…
“Having three of them come early was just a huge advantage to us, because I mean they are here they’ve already kind of learned their way, they’ve learned how things work, they get comfortable with the team. We don’t have to start from scratch with them since they’ve already been here.”

“We expect a lot out of them this year, they are going to make a huge impact coming off the bench and starting, we’re really excited to have them.”

On losing four-year starter Rachel Lenz…
“I mean there’s definitely an open spot that plenty of our teammates are going to be able to battle for, so it’s really up to anyone who’s going to step up and take it.”

“It’s always hard losing your seniors, but that’s just part of it we have to transition, we gotta move on, we gotta keep playing and practicing and just fill those gaps when the seniors leave. I think we’ll be just fine.”

On if there is pressure because of this being her last season…
“Not really, I love playing and just being with this team and these girls as you know. It’s just such a blessing and just knowing that they have my back no matter what is just more comforting than anything.”

On the key to having a successful season…
“Team chemistry and just making sure that everybody has the mentality that we are in this together and that if we work together and we play as a team, then we cannot lose. I think that’s just the main theme that we wanna have going into this year.”
