"I think the work for me has been more on the training ground, during the week, trying to prepare my body and trying to continue to get the rhythm so that when I get the opportunity for more minutes, I'm ready to go. I'm hungry, I'm anxious. I've had some good conversations with our coach this week, and we're on the same page."
