Brian had a couple of tough breaks in the first set and that sort of changed the momentum. But I think he really did a great job.

I have been blessed to have two great ones. Brian jumped right up there and was able to make a difference. Chris and Brian could play comparably. The only difference was Chris was a junior and Brian was a freshman. Now the difference is that I don't have another kid at that level.

Brian has a complete game. He serves extremely well. His ground strokes are excellent, volleys are superb.

He's always there. You never have to ask him twice to do something. He's just a great kid. He's aggressive and focused. He's a quiet competitor who is going to dominate the region. No one can beat him in this county. He's just that good.

I told him that's a hot spot and it's a tough place because you don't get a lot of wins at No. 2 when (there are other strong players). It's tough.
