It shut down when we got into the attacking third. We do some stupid things. We've got to work out some kinks and figure that out.

Clint (Burgess) is a very strong player. He has great athletic ability and he's a player who will stay motivated throughout the season. The team will excel so much more with him because he'll keep them motivated.

It's tough playing that team emotionally. Every single one of them out there I've coached for six, seven, eight years. It was fun to see a lot of those guys.

If you look at last year, Lone Peak had a lot of one-goal wins and ties. The most frustrating thing for them had been their inability to score. I believe that once we work on some group tactics, get openings that we can get guys into, it will open up scoring opportunities.

We had a lot of possession, but it wasn't dangerous. I thought (Mountain View) was very good. They played very aggressive defense, sending three and four guys to the ball.

He's a great student, a concert pianist, takes jazz lessons, and has dealt with family challenges. He's very motivated in all he does. If you show him a new soccer skill, he'll disappear for an hour with a ball until he can do it. He's a self-starter that gets a lot done in a day.

They are a tough team for me to play emotionally because I coached every one of these players for six to eight years. I still call this Lone Peak team the Bruins sometimes. It's a hard habit to break.

We allowed too many counterattacks. When we sent a defender ahead, we left a hole in the back. We didn't slide over to cover that. We found out quickly that we need to stay organized and not get too attack-minded.
