We were just out-matched in some matches. Michigan is a good team and that's why they are ranked fourth.

Dr. Jonathan Greenberg

Paul Whitmore
Peters had success right off the bat as a freshman. He won 20 matches his first year, he's very good at 189 lb.
Bill Simpkins
His backhand is much improved ... as well as his transition game and his volleys. He's getting to a point now where he's very comfortable up at the net. And now it's just getting the confidence to be able to do it in big matches.
Dean Goldfine
We lost two very close matches. I thought we played well considering how much competition we've had.
Jason Olson
It's probably one of the more athletic teams I've had in years. There's more team speed with this group. I'm expecting a lot out of them. I'm hoping we can win more than half of our matches.
Brad Keller
We're pretty happy with that. We've gotten a couple of seniors back in Conte and Stover. They've only wrestled about 10 matches each.
Mike Humphrey
We need to find a way to win them coming down the stretch the last few holes. We need to get some momentum in the matches.
Meg Mallon
I will make a decision on how many matches I should play for Essex after the Sri Lanka tour.

So many times in my matches, especially when I was coming up and I was really, really young and not having the experience, I was sometimes beating myself and not really playing the opponent.
Daniela Hantuchova
He played three straight five-set matches before the (four-set) final. If that's a geezer, I want to be a geezer, too.
Alan Goldberg
We do not have any reason to believe there are inaccuracies but we've agreed to make sure our data matches their data.
Marc Short

Rob Bautsch
I think we both think that we have a good shot in all the mixed matches if it comes down to playing the mixed.
Samantha Stosur
To make that putt shows some guts. I had two really good matches with him. For a 16-year-old, he's pretty good.
Michael Putnam
You take those matches we should have won like Jarrell and Jon, we were right in there. I know both Jarrell and Jon would like to have those matches over again.
Don Eggenburg
It always comes down to doubles. You could have the best player in the world, and odds are you won?t win all four singles matches. You have to have good doubles.
Bob Nutting
I guess it would be safe to say there would be no Test matches in the Caribbean next year.
Roger Brathwaite
All matches we play are like a final for us.
Diego Cruciani
In doubles (matches) his volleys are better than mine. He is for sure a better doubles player.
Greg Janssen
This match was a microcosm of our first three matches. I'm disappointed that we come out here to this prestigious tournament and this fantastic facility and crowd and look that bad.
Mark Pavlik
There will be some tough weight classes. There will be some great matches all the way through this tournament. Our goals are going to be based more on individual because of the team we have. We're giving up some weight classes.
Dennis Lyberger
Anything that matches teams evenly is a fair option.
Bob Asmussen
Last season, Huntington and Unioto were the most competitive matches we played. To overcome one of them was a great feat, and I hope the girls come out the same against Huntington.
Lori Anderson
It was everything we thought it would be and more. The key was keeping the matches closer and picking up those bonus points. It may not seem like a big deal, but in a 29-26 match, it's the difference.
Brian Martel
We lost a lot of close matches but it was a good season.
Matt Rossi
It's still hard. I had to wrestle my hardest for the full six minutes. I gave him all I had. That's what you have to do with all of these matches.
John Pycraft
Our top 3 teams all made it into the round of 32 but all of them lost in that round, and a couple of them had really close matches.
Bobby Bayliss
More matches are lost through carelessness at the beginning than any other cause.
Harry Vardon
It seems like we've started (in the heavyweights) the last three, four matches. It helps when you have our better boys coming up later. I don't mind finishing up that way.
Allen Hughes
We knew it was important for us to win in the doubles matches. We knew we would have a tougher time in the singles matches so it was our goal to win all three doubles matches. That gave us confidence in the singles matches.
Tony Larson
We were in a lot of those matches. The games went back and forth. There were a number of matches where it would go deuce, ad-in, deuce ad-out.
Christian Wright
The grass is so dead - you might as well have matches sitting out there.
Troy Taylor
It really wasn't that close. They smashed us pretty good. All those close matches we won the first time, they won this time.
Tommy Bell
It was a hard fought match, but we jumped out in front 4-0 and it didn't come down to one final match. So emotionally it was a lot easier than some of the other matches.
Katie Potts
We had a wonderful series with some close matches and good individual performances with bat and ball. It speaks well for what will hopefully be a good one day series.
Vikram Solanki
We are now at a point in the season where we won't force anything. We have three games to go, we won't expect him to play for the balance of those matches.
Mark Sinderberry
That's nice. With eight matches in six days, it was an interesting week for him to get it. He won all of the matches we needed him to win.
Marc Walters
He's probably one of the biggest factors that made me what I am. I wish he was out here with me winning matches. But you've got to do what you've got to do. If something's in your way, you've got to get around it.
Alex Sanchez
Marquette has had a lot of close matches with teams that we've had close matches with. So we knew it was going to be a close match. In addition, they are very strong at doubles. They've beaten two teams that we've lost to for the doubles point. So going in, we knew they were pretty strong at doubles.
Mickey Cook
It's confidence. You've got to know you've got to be able to get away in big matches, and that means something to me. It's the biggest match I've been in since high school, the state championship match, and I got out in the state finals.
Matt Irwin
After four matches, I felt tired, but that's tennis. I should have been ready.
Lucie Safarova
We've had matches where we only missed five. That's not something we usually do.

Richard Krajicek
The Federation Council will keep an eye on the law?s implementation and effectiveness and whether it matches the set tasks.

Santino Quaranta
He won four straight matches to take third.
Brian Degaetano
We'll have to give up forfeits at four weights, but we should match up well in some of the other matches.

Xavier Malisse
We're excited for the playoffs, but we need to beat St. Hubert's [Feb. 7] and Archbishop Ryan [Feb. 9], which will be tough matches.
Norman O'rourke
It's a good win. It's a real competitive league. We've won a lot of close matches. A lot of that has to do with our leadership, our seniors. I have a lot of seniors and they're all good kids.
David Burkert
I'm very proud of Jake. He played in a lot of tough matches against some tough players. He competed well.
Shawn Seiler
We have to win our next two matches against Senegal and Zimbabwe, it's that simple.
Ratomir Dujkovic
Excuses don't win matches. Excuses don't lose matches. Players win matches.
Jason Olson
We wrestled well. We are learning how to compete through the lineup. We won five matches and could've won four more. There were a couple of close matches.
Mario Harpel
This year we're going to do better. I'm sure we should be able to pull out a few more matches.
Wayne Elliott
All 14 guys contributed and we had some (consolation) guys win some big matches for us. Some of our guys are a little disappointed, but I think they wrestled hard and did the things we asked of them.
Matt Young
It?s really tough for a guy to be able to compete that hard and that consistently throughout four seasons like he has. Being able to even get in 30 matches in a year is amazing because not everyone can do that ... the body is just not that durable.
Mike Ritchey
It's so nice to get quick matches in the heat. I thought I handled it well in the heat - I'm very happy with my performance.
Max Mirnyi
Some of our guys needed to win a couple of matches. Some guys who were fifth could have been third.
Henry Agallar
They have some things to work on but had some close matches that could have gone either way.

We've been pretty much just been beating each other up in challenge matches. The guys get sick of that.
Brian Kiggans
It gave me more responsibility and I wanted to play with responsibility and win matches for my country.

This kind of thing happened in 1985. And what they did is got all the schools together and played a marathon of matches.
Mike Bettiga
Even the friendly matches played do not give a fair assessment on tactics but maybe help on fitness levels.
Charles Mhlauri
I think we're further along this time of year than we were last year at the same time. We also know that New England and Chicago, our first two matches, are going to be tough.
Steve Sampson
It's hard to be satisfied when your last match was a loss. My previous five matches were the best matches of my life.
Vincent Bordi
I have the feeling that something is missing in my game to win important matches, a certain kind of drive or motivation. I think I enjoy tennis more than ever, but this is not enough.
Magdalena Maleeva
I do like to get my matches over quickly.
Ray Willette
Everyone has adjusted well. I'm pleased with the way we've started. We're still many matches away from district.
Jennifer Grubb
Three wins in 17 matches is not good enough.
Farouk Kadodia

We ended up winning all four of those key matches and it would have been a different story if we lost those but we steam-rolled them.
Chad Hitchen
By then we will have played enough warm-up matches and will be ready for the World Cup.
Branko Ivankovich
I love loud matches and controversial things, that's what gets me going.
Brittany Delaney
They really came through in their last two matches. I'm proud of them for keeping their focus. They beat a very solid Hastings' team.
Shawn Seiler
You look at four wins and that's a great way to start. Even in the two matches we lost the kids were right in their matches with district champions.
Doug Short
I played three pretty good matches in qualifying and that helped me. She fights hard and it's been a bit back and forth between us.
Meghann Shaughnessy
Imran did not teach me how to bowl, but he taught me how to win matches and have the right approach towards cricket.
Waqar Younis
I'm just looking to have some fun. We have two overtime matches, so I guess it's a toss-up right now.
Brad Clark
I think they're going to win a few matches.
Joey Hawkins
We are making him shoot more in practice. High crotches, doubles legs, whatever. We are hoping if he does it enough in practice it will become part of his matches.
Darren Johnson
I just have to wrestle more (matches) now. … I'm getting kind of used to answering the same questions. But it's OK. A lot of girls have come up to me and said, 'I couldn't do that.' But really, it's no big deal. It's just my life.
Priscilla Brownfield
We had lost some matches and needed to try something different. We were extremely hopeful and enthusiastic about the way he handled it. He just came to practice and worked really hard, to his credit. That's what a coach wants to see.
Joe Wortmann
It's a huge economic engine. What we've discovered is that before and after the matches [spectators] are on the avenue.
Marjorie Ferrer
I feel good at the moment and even though I didn't feature in the last set of matches for my club, I must say my fitness is intact at the moment and I'm up for the game and the rest of the build-up.
Kelvin Jack
It will be one of the biggest matches of my career.
Sania Mirza
After matches you want people to go straight in front of the cameras and the media and it's a highly-charged atmosphere so you have to be careful.
Clive Woodward
All these matches were very, very close, ... They were all exceptional bowlers. These kids from Fresno State are right up there with the best.
David Clements
It is inconsistent to complain on the one hand about the burden of the overloaded international calendar and at the same time propose additional matches.
Thomas Kurth
Travis has had some tough, hard matches where he hasn't always come out on the better end of it, ... There, he did (win) against one of the top kids in his weight class.
Mark Manning
We even heard the President was watching some of our matches. That's special to know.
John Shuster
It was nice to get a team win. It was fun. Most of the matches went the way I expected them to.
Trent Rollins
As part of that partnership we have agreed to a philosophy of sharing the matches evenly between the two countries with the location of the final yet to be decided.
Martin Snedden
It means a lot. Finally I can say that I'm able to play and beat anyone, and it just gives me so much confidence. I had so many matches like this where I was really close to beating the top players and finally I did it today. I'm just really extremely happy about that.
Daniela Hantuchova
He's bigger, faster and stronger than just about anyone he matches up against.
Monte Kohler
I'm always surprised at how close these matches are and how thin the winning and losing margin is.
Dennis Emery
We started most of our matches practicing doubles. Our No. 3 spot is coming together, but Marion is out. It is going to be challenging on court without her.
Amy Jensen
Most of them start out watching their kids wrestle. Then they fall in love with it, and start going to matches long after the kids are gone.
John Demarco
You're thinking about your own match, but it's hard not to look at the board. With all the matches going the wrong way for us, it was tough. We've done everything we can.
Carin Koch
We had to have those two matches. They're both experienced and they got the job done.
Beth Miller
Matches against Marseille are always important.
Guy Lacombe
It was an intense rivalry. I remember going to matches and seeing the gym packed. We weren't getting that in Brick.
John Demarco
Everybody had this look on their face like we were going to lose. We were only down (27-23) and I was like guys, we still have four matches left, we can win all of them.
Steve Bilheimer
We had a lot of close matches.
Donal Mcgraw
We are looking forward to it. We match up really well with them. It is one of the few teams that we will wrestle that we are favored in more matches than they are.
Tom Erikson
They both had very good matches.
Wally Caldwell
We were behind going into singles and these guys kept battling. They kept fighting and played some great singles matches. It's a great way to start the season.
David Lipe
I've never played in Test matches with such an atmosphere.
Simon Jones
I just want to win a couple matches. I had a pretty easy draw, but then it got tough because they had to redraw my bracket, so I just want to win a couple matches and go as far as I can — basically just go down there and have fun and win if I can.
Josh Bordner
When you have four kids in the 30s and a couple hanging around 40, you'll win high school matches. The kids have been doing a nice job. I'm very satisfied.
Don Crawford
O'Neal had some tough guys in his bracket. He came through to win a couple tough matches.
Pete Rogers
And there are so many more beside those where replays would have made a huge difference. I absolutely think some big matches would have gone the other way.
Cliff Drysdale
I felt real good after the singles, but we just didn't produce in the doubles. We've got a lot of work to do there, because that's where you win a lot of close matches.
Allen Hornthal
There's no way we can be disappointed with the way the guys have competed. We've had some matches that didn't really go our way and we would have liked to have won a few others. But the reality is we had an awesome day.
Ron Averill
I knew the guy was putting great, doing everything great. It was a real thrill. Chris and I have had some good matches, but this was by far the best.
Stuart Appleby
Apparently, because we only played two matches and got to the final. I thought it didn't make a difference, because if you're good, you're good. But it really helped.
Laime Contreras
[But the tennis association wouldn't -- and didn't -- do it that way.] We decided both quarterfinals should be in Ashe, as we have before, ... Both delivered on drama. They're top names and both matches were epics.
David Newman
It's very even and you can analyse the group in whatever way you like. You can look at us and say we've two home games to go with a game in Cyprus in between. Then you can look at France and say they are capable of winning three matches with the fantastic players they have.
Brian Kerr
We're lightening up on resources shares because we're not convinced that the hype about Chinese demand quite matches the reality.
Brian Ingham
Cliff sometimes doesn't focus enough, and I have to keep reminding him to remain focused in his matches.
Vin Altebrando
We played a lot of close matches with these kids and I think part of it was due to frustration.
Marianne Bretschneider
We ran out of gas. We had two emotional matches to get here. You can only go to the well so many times.
Bill Schreier
I knew how good they were, and we wrestled them awfully tough. We were in four overtime matches.
Scott Goodale
There's a lot of strategy. You can be a so-so shooter and win a lot of matches by playing smart.
Steve Wehrle
Besides KSCA, Andhra Cricket Association and Chennai have also offered to host the Champions Trophy matches and we are ready to abide by all ICC regulations.
Brijesh Patel
Of course the opening match is important but the cut will be made after three matches.
Dick Advocaat
I'm fit. I'm good. I've felt good for four or five matches. There's no pressure on us. This is our first time in the World Cup and we're going to do our best.
Michael Essien
I am very excited (about) conference. I think we have some good matches under our belt and I know we will be ready for (it).
Kayla Wright
We've got to improve and play the road matches like we play at home. We have to be more aggressive, and that's the difference.
Sujay Lama
I still want to win a couple matches.
Houston Mader
If we can get six points from our four remaining matches, that should do the trick for us.
Farouk Kadodia
Four of the five singles matches could have gone either way.
John Fisher
We're not lying to the kids. We know we're not going to win the dual. What we're looking to do is to win as many matches as we can and wrestle well. We want to use it as a barometer going into the sectional.
Vince Trombetti
We're making these matches so incredibly fast.
Marketa Garner Gautreau
If the demands of the business allow for employees to finish at 5pm to watch the matches, it can be a great morale boosting opportunity.
Andrew Wilkinson
We wrestled very well. Anytime you have 12 of 13 wrestlers in the championship or third place matches you have to be pleased.
Jeriamy Jackson
America is not only big and rich, it is mysterious; and its capacity for the humorous or ironical concealment of its interests matches that of the legendary inscrutable Chinese.
David Riesman
Jessica and Cameron played very courageous matches today. We were really happy to see their efforts rewarded.
Vic Ramsey
It was good to see him come back quickly. He's worked so hard, it was tough to see him miss any matches.
Shawn Finch
Give credit to Illinois, they played well and they deserved to win. We need matches like this; we're just better because of this.
Brian Boland
When you play those away matches, some of the crowds are pretty tough: they can get brutal on you. College allows you to play a lot of matches with something on the line.
Mark Knowles
Tim just never quits. Last year he had a lot of long, three-set matches. His demeanor doesn't change throughout the match. He just keeps after it.
Mike Drusbacky
It felt good to finally get back out there. Hopefully, the rest of my matches go like that.
Brian Hendricks
That was a big swing mid-way through the matches.
Russ Borman
It's tough to stay up for three matches.
Doug Castellari
We are preparing for the best Roy Jones ever. [For rubber matches] you have to put in your mind that this guy is laying it all on the line. They know this is it and they try to dig deeper.
Buddy Mcgirt
If Duncan is found guilty of this latest charge then his period of suspension has the potential to be increased from three matches to six.
David Harrison
The extent of the impact on the vehicle matches with the injuries to his left side.
Kevin Cook
I'm proud of R.D.. He keeps moving ?til something good happens. He hasn't had a lot of matches, so it's hard to coach him. He just got into a scramble and landed on top.
Tom Mashek
It was a good move. If we win both of those matches, it's a tie and we win on criteria.
Chuck Tursky
Zach didn't even have to go to a third set in any of his matches.
Dave Weisfeldt
I know, it's been a while. I'm really pleased to be through. It's been two tough matches.
Greg Rusedski
We won five of the 11 contested matches. And we forfeited three matches.
George Fotenos
When he plays like this, it's really tough to beat him, ... That's why he's No. 1 in the world and he loses just a few matches during the year.
David Nalbandian
We don't have any matches down there. We're just going to play golf.
Greg Zenerovitz
Everyone was really anxious to get the season started. To get those two matches under our belts was really good.
George Husack
With the best match of my life, I'm not sure if I could beat Grayson - he's that good. But again, I know I did the best I could in both of those matches.
Brandon Lococo
We've made many great matches. In fact, one of our matches is taking a trip to England this spring. They don't all turn out that way, but you never know.
Bill Cummings
They are capable of giving us difficult matches. So we know that we just have to focus on the match and not worry about rankings or winning streaks.
Catrina Thompson
In the matches you can't do anything unless he happens to look over. It's different watching him wrestle.
Steve Okamura
I didn't get a preseason to iron out our lineup. We were playing matches before we had an official practice.
Mark Zalin
It's tough to start 0-4 (in singles matches) and come back to win five straight matches. That's a big hole to come out of.
Jeff Carrow
When we get to the district, our kids tend to crank it up a notch and get the job done. Our goal is to win at least two matches at state and place.
Roger Branham
It's an emotional roller coaster. You win some big matches and you lose some. Every win is such a positive and every loss drills you in the heart.
Greg Randall
Next week I'll just do the best I can. Win a couple of matches to qualify and go from there.
David Watts
Garrett is a good, aggressive, strong freshman, but he's so aggressive he makes mistakes. But he is going to be a good one. He'll come back tomorrow and win some matches. I guarantee it.
Dennis Friestad
His matches were too close. Quintana is a good wrestler, but he's a freshman, and he should have put it too him.
David Watts
No one up there [in the WWE] could go an hour, 90 minutes, or two hours, like we used to go, Those were some of the best matches I ever had.
John Paul Jones
That final and the cup matches I played in Italy were never as big as this.
Shunsuke Nakamura
We just drill that every single day. Takedowns are what win matches.
Derek White
It is very frustrating. That's two matches which were there for the winning.
Gary Parker
The matches against Dearborn High have been the toughest of our season.
John Forster
East always matches up with us really well. (What happened last year) was definitely an added incentive.
Adam Turville
We don't have the two big guns in the singles, but we are good enough players to possibly snatch one of those singles matches.
Wayne Arthurs
That match will be a good indication of where we are. Hopefully, the matches this past weekend prepared us for that competition.
Mark Mathias
It is very important to make sure they do not play with matches and that they know how to call 911.
Jim Westfall
Both he and the board have big ambitions for the club, so it's important that the communications aspect off-field matches the effort of the manager and the players on-field.
David Southern
With the break between the second and third matches, you can lose some momentum.
Russ Borman
He handled it real well. He certified on the 23rd of December. But he was never down there again. We said to him, 'Eric, you're going to be a key if we move you down to 171. Can you do it?' He said, 'Yeah.' And he did it. And he won two big matches for us.
Bernie Ruettiger
It doesn't matter if I go to a match or if I'm shooting a match by myself at the range, it's shooting matches and not saying, "Oh well, this is just for me and it doesn't count." Shooting matches.
Nancy Johnson
Even the matches we lost were competitive and that's a confidence builder.
Wade Stueve
After watching that, they came up to me and said 'coach I got to be excited' and they went out and won their matches.
Phil Cronin
[Rutgers] is definitely going to be ready to compete against us because we're the top seed. The top seed is always a target in big matches like the Big East.
Christian Thompson
There were some tough battles, but our kids did what they needed to do. Overall, it was a very good day. We had a lot of individual guys get some tough matches in, and we came away with a tournament win.
Darrin Cummings
