The sophomore class, they lead the pack, they lead by example. They'll motivate the older guys.

It would be natural for Seth to have trouble bouncing back from something like that. But we have a big tournament next weekend at Ippolito, and I have to make sure he's ready.

It's going to be a talented bunch of teams. There are few that you'd call favorites, but there are former state qualifiers from almost every school.

I have to look at Jesuit right now as the favorites if I had to pick one. They'll be a good test.

(The outlook) is fantastic. After this, we know that placing at states is a goal that's within reach.

I tried to instill this week that if you can place in the top four at this tournament, you can place in the top six at states. It's that high a level here.

I could not be happier with the way things turned out here. We're sending two hard-working guys to the finals, and the guys who are in consolations have given everything they have here.

People have been asking our guys to compete in these tournaments. I think the program has a reputation.
