On how excited the team is for the Super Regional...
"The team is really fired up. We are just trying to take it one game at a time, we aren't trying to get too ahead of ourselves. We have to come out and win game one tomorrow and win game two after that, but for now, win game one."

On having the 12th Man out at Olsen to support the team...
"It means a lot to have the 12th Man here and have them come out and support us for the game. It really gets us going and is really intimidating, so it's great to have that on our side."

On emotions coming off the mound into the dugout...
"Usually I am just trying to keep my head down and stay focused so I don't get too caught up in the moment, so I just try to stay cool, calm and collected so I can be focused for the next inning and just keep it going instead of losing my mind and coming out the next inning and not really paying attention to what's going on – then before you know it, boom, bad. I just try to keep it simple."

On the keys to beating Davidson this weekend...
"The same things we have been doing all year: good pitching and good defense. Stay within approach at the plate and try not to get too ahead of ourselves and just play like we normally play. I think if we do that we will do pretty well."

On any last words to the fans coming out to Olsen this weekend...
"I think they do a pretty good job themselves, so just show up and come with an attitude, I guess."
