 Hello and welcome into the Julia Colada show. I'm Joe Wamba, joined now with Julia Colada, head coach of the softball team. Coach, you guys are on a little bit of a tough skid after coming back from the spring break trip, but still, you know, a lot of season left and a lot of opportunity to have some retribution in the Mac. Yeah, we've come off like a week, maybe going on to two weeks of tough games. We played really strong Gettysburg team and two strong conference matches against Arcadia and Widener, and then we're gonna play a tough Salisbury team tomorrow. So we have a lot of things to work on and, you know, it's gonna be tough to work on them during the strong competition run, but it's something we gotta do. One thing that you guys did really well, I don't know if it was Gettysburg not wanting to run against you guys, but having that threat behind the plate to keep people from advancing is a big thing to lean on. Yeah, Gettysburg came in with 22 stolen bases and we were able to keep them from advancing something we didn't do as well at Widener. They pulled a lot of button runs on us and we were watching the game, you know, being a spectator instead of a participant which caused us some trouble. That would definitely be one key of emphasis as you practice this week and go into the games this week. What are gonna be the other points of emphasis as you move forward, trying to, you know, get the hit game going and a stronger pitching game going? Yeah, one of our biggest issues right now is that our pitchers can't hit spots consistently and it makes it tough for our coaching staff to be able to call pitches consistently to best put our team in a position to win and that's all as coaches that we can do or keep putting our players in the best position to win. Something we also have to work on is our offense and offense and hitting are completely contagious. So being able to get excited about the victories, we had a couple of times where we hit a double, we had someone on second, someone come up. Kayla Maggio did a great job and at bat moving our runner to third with one out. We have to get excited about those little victories that we have to create a better offensive approach. Well coach, we wish you the best of luck and getting those points of emphasis accomplished this week against Salisbury and then again against Lebanon Valley this weekend. Yeah, thank you very much.
