On the (clock's) computer it counts down to 100s of a second, which doesn't show on the clock. So you won't get that buzzer until that computer hits 0:00. That's why there is a delay. We did discuss it before the match that we would go with the buzzer and not the time on the clock.
Scott Merritt
It's an exciting sport to watch. It's a chess match, that's active.

It was a good match. For the most part, we held our own, especially considering the size difference.

That match could have gone either way. There was one point where they were up 5-4 and they hit a [30-15] lead and a kid hit a shot really close to the line, but if we get that point, it's [40-15], we get two match points, we probably win. It really just could have gone either way.
Tim Matacio

Jeannie Galindo
I knew Loyola would be out toughest match.
Wayne Hicks
He really played some of his test tennis in that last match.

After that takedown, the crowd got really loud and I felt it was my match from then on. I think that was the turning point for me.

From a fan's perspective, it was probably a great game to watch. I thank all the fans we had come out ... all the benefits are going to Hurricane Katrina (relief efforts), which is really the importance of this match.
Krista Mikesch
The thing that hurt us was lack of people. If we had numbers, it would have been a different match.
David Kerr
I thought he wrestled a great match when he defeated Mark Brown. He wrestled smart.
Brian Kapusta
It's a good way of seeing if you would be a match.
Dawn Penfold
It will be a very difficult match and I could have done with a full squad but we'll just have to give it our best shot.
Derek Robinson
Even when I was losing ... I still had the feeling that he cannot hurt me. Either I can win the match, or I can lose the match. Sometimes I was a little surprised at how slow he played the balls.
Dominik Hrbaty
Mack doesn't do anything flashy, he just gets the job done. You know what you're going to get from Mack in every match. He's very consistent in his performance.

Marcelle Ferron
We heard now and again the result from the Italy game but I didn't hear about the final result until the end of our match.
Lars Lagerback
It was just another fun match to watch. Those two are both good scramblers. They go after it. They're not kids that sit back and wait. They both go after it. So, when you have a match like that and two quality kids, it's just fun to watch.
Mark Ruettiger
We certainly are able to match that type of play but we didn't do it with enough consistency. Too often we're worried about reaching in. Sometimes hits are the easier play to make.
Randy Cunneyworth
I thought we might struggle because of a lack of match fitness but we responded brilliantly.
Rob Ritchie
She won a match that was important. It's good to have her out. She's working the rust off.
Bruce Beltz
They're bigger, more physical. The key is that we kind of match their physicality and aggressiveness.
Steve Kramer
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
For everybody else in the league this year they?re a nightmare to match up with. Everybody?s going to try to keep the game close and, then, certainly you hope you can snake a game out in the end.
Bill Cowell
This was a tough, hard-fought match. We played incredibly well for half the time.
Wayne Elliott
Did not match my earlier comments.

Tech Data was looking to invest in advanced technologies. They had some resources. It was a logical match.
Susheel Chitre
On match point we got a good pass, Michelle (Alblas) set the ball perfectly and Jen got this enormous kill.

I was definitely the underdog against Li, so beating him was the highlight for me. That was a tough match, but I got a takedown (with 30 seconds left) to give me a 7-3 lead, and I just held on.
Nick Duccilli
We were a little worried this season that we didn't have a pool. Every league match was on the road.

Joel Greenlee
If we'd played like that all match we would have won.

He was the man of the match. He understands this game well, and he came out ready to play today.

Robert Shapiro
I have to be more focused in my next match.

Matt Evans
It should be a real good match. We're both real young.
Jerry Frazier
It was an awesome match. The girls played at a great level and I couldn't be prouder in our first match of the season. They fought every step of the way.
Barbara King
I don't want to approve something, collect the money and not have the (general fund) money to match it.
Patricia Cox
I think we match up well with Claflin. It will be interesting.
Marshall Ballard
I didn't think that match was an upset. Eddie's a hard working kid, and he's getting what he deserves.
Jeff Pollick
That's always the mindset for us going into every game. Everyone knows they have to stop the run against us. They're awfully good at stopping the run so that's going to be a chess match. We've got some adjustments that we'll make if we have to.
Calvin Magee
Once he got his first match under his belt, he was a little disappointed that he didn't wrestle (Huffman) better.
Darren Weber
I was worried, but the thing is we are so deep. We're in our fifth match and I've had five different starting rotations. Whoever I put out there seems to get the job done.
Chris Enge
The way we came back from that loss and responded in that match showed us we could be a top team.
Scott Green
The tie break was the turning point of the match. When I won it I felt that I finally had this tournament.
Luis Horna
It was a good match-up between the two teams. We're comparable to Saranac on a talent level.
Keith Clark
They confirmed they are a strong team, which is what we had said about them before the match. It was a very hectic match. This group will continue to be interesting.
Tomas Rosicky
Fatigue and the flip were both factors because we had a tough match against Mahnomen.
Chad Hitchen
I beat the Clinton kid 1-0 earlier. We (the coaches and me) have been watching the tape of that match. Anyone who knows wrestling knows about Dakota. They are always good.
Ash Edmonds
We knew each match was going to be important so we needed as many six point victories as possible.
Keith Smith
One of the few things in dance to match the Royal Ballet's curtain calls is the Royal Ballet's dancing.
Clive Barnes
Chase Duncan lost his match last year by pin and this year, against the same kid, won 14-6. Not only did he win, but he turned it on at the end for another major decision.
Robert Nebeker
I was glad the match started at 275 (heavyweight). Because that meant we could end with Zach and Brandon, and I liked our chances with those two.
Russ Witzig
I knew it would be like this. They were going to get some wins, and we were going to get some wins. We had some surprises and some letdowns, but the one constant was that I knew it was going to be a hard-fought match, (and) that it was going to come down to the end.
Terry Manning
It's a tough place to play -- they have a hostile crowd. It's fun though, I like when the crowd gets into it If we play well and play to our potential, we'll have a good match.
Malcolm Scatliffe
We're still looking at lineups. But Meredith did a great job of setting and Lillian played a great match.
Becky Madden
I'm feeling good, looking forward (the opening match). Definitely, I can get through it.
Mark Philippoussis
Except at 119 and 125, we're very inexperienced. We don't know how to build on intensity or how to get things started after we lose a close match. We fall off in intensity.
Chad Vollmecke
I can't imagine he would have stayed up so late the night before a Test match.
Michael Atherton
We try to get matchups, and he's a guy that's intriguing because we can match him up in several different ways.
David Oliver
I wasn't nervous at all before the match. I felt like I was going to win. I've worked ridiculously hard for this.
Cory Lempka
It wasn't for team-wise, but individual-wise going into the district tournament it was big. Because Curtis and James will probably be fighting for the district championship, so it was a big match in that sense.
Danny O'quinn
I think he served very good the whole match, ... I played very good with a lot of concentration.
Mariano Puerta
I think Ernie could have been more aggressive earlier in the match, but he's had a great career.
Dean Spahr
We knew it was going to be a tough match, and the Redondo guys thought they were going to win it.
Scott Herman
Investors will be looking to see if Prudential can match Principal and Anthem.
Kyle Huske
I think you will see some matching. But the (major competitor) airlines will dance around to begin with.
Brian Simpson
Each suite in the lineup is matching up to those particular segments.
George Kafkarkou
This will be my fourth year going there. We lost in the quarterfinals my freshman year and the title match the last two years. There's only one thing left to do -- win it.
Nick Anurak
It's just feeling good. Pretty solid today, consistent match. Really a good way to get into this tournament.
Amelie Mauresmo
It's my senior year. I'm going out and wrestling like it's my last match every time.
Greg Hawkins
I have some very strong feelings, not just about this match, but the whole series. I will convey it (to the ICC) through proper channels.
Dav Whatmore
We were just really excited to play them again. We hated to lose the [Ivy title], but in a lot of ways this was a much more important match.
Dave Talbott
We will donate 75% of the earnings of the first match for the Pakistani earthquake victims and 25% will go to those affected by the quake in India.
Asad Mustafa
But we think we match up with them really well.
Randy Myhre
I think we were a little in awe of being in the quarterfinals and didn't wrestle our best match.
Tommy Sanders
While the performance in Cairns wasn't what we wanted, the big positive to come out of the match was that we had no injuries.
Ivan Cleary
The first three games, South dictated the flow of the match. In that fourth game, we came into our own. We were getting into our offense and being explosive.
Josh Rohlfing
If we wrestle well, we could beat them. But we'd have to have a really good day. We match up real well with the other two teams.
Joe Lehmann
It felt like a grand final (last Sunday's match) and I guess every game is a grand final for us now.
Mike Hussey
It would have been one heck of a finals match. We thought the bracket was set up wrong. They were the defending champions in their own building ---- how could we be in the same bracket as them?
Jeff Hickok
The Old Firm match is the only one in the world where the managers have to calm the interviewers down.
Tommy Burns
I would have rather finished the match properly.
Mark Allen
We knew we were going to be facing a tough team and we knew this was going to be our biggest match of the year. They came in and fought but came up a little short.
Scott Nykerk
I'm not bragging, but I don't think anyone can match up with Mr. Hughes.
John Lawrence
We could then compare what we made with what we found in the syringe. And it was a perfect match, all the way around.
Don Catlin
It was a good day. It was a miracle with the rain coming in that we even got the match in.
Allen Hornthal
They're more likely to compare each photo to their original memory and make a positive ID if there's a match, or not make a match. You get many fewer false identifications.
Brian Cutler
We should have won 3-1 in Zimbabwe but cricket is such a game where one ball can change the whole scenario of the match.
Steve Tikolo
We had to play a zone because we didn't match up with them, and we did a great job with it in the first half.
Frank Connelly
Shauna did really well against the Page guy and there wasn't much she could do with the Chang match. He has not been beat at this weight.
Jim Popham
It was evenly played. We won the second half. It was a physical match but my guys played the way their guys played.
Don Tordoff
Adam broke whatever control they had on the game. He was definitely the man of the match.
Paul Retherford
These 10 pieces will give her outfits she can mix and match. In fact, she can create 20 to 27 different outfits with this core group of clothing.
Barbara Tyler
That was pretty exciting. It gives you another boost of adrenaline. If they would have done that before my match I would have probably killed him.
Lance Palmer
That's the most important thing in my wrestling. The first takedown in a match is mostly what wins the match.
David Yost
The first half was frustrating. We definitely didn't match their intensity, but we certainly did in the second half.
Josh Aciukewicz
We just didn't match up well with them. They were big inside.
Mel Shivers
We knew it would be a decent match. Caryl is a tough kid.
Dave Laird
All I know is I'm positive I killed her. She was like a threat to me. Everything I did she could match. That wasn't right. She made me feel worthless.
Michael Crowe
I thought we played pretty well. It was a tough match. Lake Gibson played very hard.
Scott Short
It is a win gained against a very good Moroccan team. Now we look towards the next match.
Henri Michel
We'll have to give up forfeits at four weights, but we should match up well in some of the other matches.
Brian Kapusta
Just winning my first match at states feels really good because it relieves a lot of pressure. This makes everything a lot easier now. I'm more confident. I got all the anxiety out. Now tomorrow is just another day.
Aaron Wilcox
It's our last home match. We've been peaking for this match.
Radhika Ahluwalia
This was a very convincing win for us in a match that was a must-win. It was an impressive performance up and down the lineup.
David Ramirez
Wicket-keepers have got to be able to score Test match hundreds - it's as simple as that.
Phil Tufnell
It felt so good to win. The game was going back and forth and it was such a close match, but we never gave up and came out on top.
Tiffany Lee
[By the time she conceded the match, she was hyperventilating in the courtside chair. She was wheeled away from the court and later was put on a drip.] I just couldn't breathe, ... I don't know what happened.
Akiko Morigami
We knew that they had great post players and good guards. But we felt that their guards could not match up with our guards. One, we have more experience, and that alone gave us the upper hand. We wanted to come out and help the post players the best way we could.
Lisa Willis
It was just amazing. I rode the emotion of the fans through the whole match. I couldn't let them down.
Alyssa Lampe
We're very proud of him. It's awesome to have a freshman come along like this. Every match he just keeps getting better.
