There's more pressure on them this year, but I think they like that. They should be pretty confident. They're a year older. The only bad part about having so many seniors is they're all going to be gone next year.

It's going to be all about defense, and we're going to have to get our middles involved in the game. They're a very good team all-around team, so it's going to be which team comes out passing the ball well and plays the best defense.

When things are clicking, we are a very good team. Right now we're clicking about 50 percent of the time. I want it up to 100 percent.

That was his debut. I know he called a time out at one point just to call a time out. He just wanted to feel like he was doing something, I guess.

At times we played very well and at times we were inconsistent. We still need to work on our passing and defense.

We won in spite of ourselves. We're not playing as well as I would like.

The last time we played them we beat them, but they were without a middle hitter. Right now we're just looking to Tuesday.

We've been here so many times, but sometimes that streak starts to play on you. It sometimes can be a disadvantage. We have more all-around talent, but they had nothing to lose. It's a good thing we could get a win without playing our best.

We actually played fairly well. We're just trying to focus on playing well on our side of the net.
