And Pittsville made some good plays, especially on defense.
They're a pretty balanced team. They have a good quarterback and a couple good receivers in their passing game, but they can also run effectively.
I think we're getting better and better. The first game, we got crushed. Last game against Butte we tied and this one we won. Best yet, we kept them off the board and got a shutout.
Jose was just in the right spot at the right time on all three of those goals. I wouldn't call them garbage goals, I think it was more of his hustle that made it happen. He's got great vision of the game and he's just in the right spot all the time.
I don't really look at it so much as a rivalry as a game we need to win. I don't like to tell the kids that one game is more important than another. We have nine regular-season games and to me they're all pretty important.
They came out in the second half and got off a few shots right away, and kept us on our heels a little bit.
At least I'm in the woods, ... I don't mind being alone. You get to thinking about things.
Defensively, I'm very pleased. We worked on that all week, specifically in the midfield. We knew coming in that they (Big Sky) have one of the best midfielders in the league in Keane Hamilton and we did an awesome job staying with him. Every time he touched the ball we had two or three guys there. So he had to really work for everything today.
They go and buy a nudie magazine and they show me pictures and I'm like, `Ha, ha, that's cool,' ... But my wife and kid are at home and I don't really want to look at nudie magazines, ever . ... I'd rather see a picture of my dog than I would of a nude girl. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but that's me.
