Purdue vs. Cal State Fullerton
Cal State Fullerton Head Coach Michelle Gromacki
"If we can't come out at the very end of the game when our backs are up against the wall and win a ballgame like that ... You know what? We're good at that, we have resilience, but resilience isn't always going to win a ballgame. What happened to 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 innings? We can't just win a ballgame when we're playing two innings. Purdue came out and swung the bats even though they didn't score one through four innings. They came out swinging the bats one through seven innings. They won that ballgame. They were better than us today, and they deserved it."
(On the season) "I think as a whole we did a pretty decent job piecing that season together. We had some severe injuries, but we thought we pieced it well together. We had some freshmen who stepped up - (Christine) Hiner stepped up for us. We had a good season. I think we could have done a little better with some veterans we had to replace."
