R. Ingram Game Quotations

I wouldn't say that was the turning point in the game. Riley had to make a lot of good saves in the game. If I had to describe our effort (Saturday) I would say it was less than inspiring. We didn't play well but I can't complain too much, we're up a game.

We had been walked off the last two days, so it was good that we stretched the game to extra innings and pulled it out. It was a good win for us, especially starting a new month and being back at home. Definitely the kind of game that can get you started in the right direction.

He scores goals in bunches so its obvious we're going to need him and everybody else to show up for the next two games. When we don't bring our speed to a game we're a pretty average team but on the nights we're flying we're pretty much unstoppable. I think the guys realize what team we need out there to wrap this thing up.

We just did not shut the door. It's disheartening to play so hard for seven innings and just hand it to them in the eighth and ninth. We may have gotten a little lax, thought the ball game was over.

We got on the board early. Span turning on that pitch, that was nice. Situational hitting wasn't very good today. We had chances to blow the game open early. We push a couple across we're in better shape. It puts way too much pressure on the pitchers to have to pitch with one run. So we'll work on our situational hitting.

When we were 1-6, all we focused on was that we were better than that. We knew it; we just had to prove it. We've come a long way and it's great to be back to .500 and to know we'll get a home game in the tournament.

We are getting better each day and are on the doorstep of being one of the better teams in the conference. We will learn from this game and move on to our next game.

I love the way we came out in the first period. But then we had a four-minute power play and only got two shots on goal and in a game like this you just can't do that. We sat back and got complacent and against a veteran team like (the Braves) they'll beat you every time. We have to stay up for the entire game and play with urgency.

He took care of you, no doubt. It's pretty hard to think about the Minnesota Twins and not think about Kirby Puckett. He played the game the way it was supposed to be played. He made it fun to come to that ballpark.

It's a Sooner day today, man. The young guys have got something to look forward to. We hadn't won a bowl game in two years, and the seniors got out of here with a win.

We slowed the game down, got some stops and forced them to take long shots. We got some easy shots and just closed it out.

He shows the guys. If things are down, he'll step up his game. He goes out every game like he wants a championship. That shows his teammates what it takes to be successful. He leads by example with his effort.
