KEY QUOTES
Head Coach Tony Baldwin
On what comes next...
"Right now, we're going to enjoy Easter. That's a bigger day than this whole softball thing anyway. We're going to take advantage of the opportunity to celebrate that with our families and friends. We'll get to work on Monday and then be ready to go play a really tough Georgia Tech team. They're having a great year, and, on the road, we know it's going to be tough. We're going to have to play good softball. Right now, we had an opportunity today and we just didn't get it done."

On the seniors in the program and Senior Day...
"I'm disappointed that we didn't get it done for them today. At the end of the day, it's a great group. I'll put our environment and locker room up with anybody in the country, and that starts with the people you have in the room. We have a great group of seniors that have led us through this, and hopefully we can finish this out the right way."
