Last night at the pasta party, we stressed no sixth places. We said no sixth places and that will bring the title and it worked out. All of the guys in the outside lanes were just pushing for it and we got it.

It's great. This is the first time I've ever been to finals. I came to Meet of Champions last year and I didn't even make it to finals. This is the first time I made finals. It was great for me and the guys.

Cory deserves it. He stays anywhere from 20 to 30 minutes late after every practice. You tell everyone hard work pays off. It's nice when it does.

Derek did a great job of getting the ball inside. Over every team, we're going to have an advantage in height, and we used it well tonight.

It was a great way to go out. I wouldn't have wanted it any different.
