Megan threw 110-11 which is a good start for her. Christina did a good job. We were fifth as a team overall. We were hoping to do a little better but we didn't have much for distance runners today.
Peggy Cox
This is a great spectator course. People can view the entire race, which is really different from most cross country courses where the runners are in and out of trails and wooded areas. It makes for a much more interested and enthusiastic crowd.
John Barrymore
We got to get those runners in. This is a hell of a time to be going into a slump.
Joe Durant
We aren't going to hit home runs day in and day out. It is going to be the little things that are going to make or break this season for us, moving runners over, getting runners in from (third base) with less than two outs. Those are the things we need to do.
Randy Ready
He made runners, he made them when they bumped him, he made them inside. He rebounded the ball. He did a fairly good job of defending. We (isolated) him about 10 straight times, and about nine of them, we got something good; either he scored or got somebody else something.
John Calipari
It's a very popular invitational, ... They like the course around the lake, and it's a pretty good setting for the teams to set up. It's good for the fans, because you can see the runners for a lot of the time.
Joe Brown and David Brown
I'm somewhat excited about this year's team. I'm somewhat excited about progress we can make. We didn't end on a good note, but we have all of our runners back and the top runners have trained hard to make progress.
John Gartland
With the amount of base runners we had, I wasn't about to hold up anybody at third, that's for sure. I told my pinch runner, 'Look, she had to make the perfect play, and she did. She made a perfect field and the perfect throw, so don't hang your head.
Pete Hoffman
I was just trying to sacrifice two runners in scoring position with two outs. She executed very well on the bunt.
Jessica Noble
We had to keep it close with the distance races, basically anything we can get Dominic and Jennings in. They're our best two runners, hands down.
Jim O'hara
That definitely hurt us. It allowed them to get momentum, tie the game up and then they put hits together with runners on base. They left three runners on base and we left five. Their clutch hitting paid off.
Mike Padgett
As more young runners come up, the team becomes stronger and the performance both at local and international event improves.
Godfrey Nuwagaba
I would like to say that we caused that fumble, but it looked like it just slipped out of (the runner's) hands.
Marshall Overley
I've got some very competitive seventh-grade girls that really would like to be up there. We have new talent that certainly is going to push the returning runners to a new level.
Noel Schuch
Now with all the players back out, we should win the competition easily. We will be extremely difficult to beat. The team is stronger than in 2004 when we were runners-up, so we should finish first this time, no maybes about it.
Ali Rochester
I don't think our team batting average is all that good, but I would love to see what our average is with runners in scoring position. It comes down to hitting with confidence with the right frame of mind.
Heath Sager
I'm very happy about the way we played with runners on base. Our communication is getting better.
David Eads
Those were some of our top varsity runners.
Matt Seeley
I have been talking to a lot of people who did not have a 10-mile or half-marathon standard. We don't want to exclude anybody. We thought it was just a nice benefit for the runners.
Keith Dowling
If the running conditions on the roadways were hazardous to our runners, that would be sufficient to cancel or delay the event. I'm mostly concerned that our volunteers will opt to stay home because of the frigid conditions. The runners, for the most part, won't be deterred.
John Conley
It's not just me being hot. It's everybody doing the job together. Everybody's getting on base. When you have runners on, you learn to do the job - whether it's two strikes, first pitch, whatever. It's not really me being hot. Everybody's having multiple-hit games. Everybody's coming around, and that's what we were expecting to have.
Ryan Baker
You must give Campbell credit. When we had runners in scoring position, they either made plays or their pitchers came up with strikeouts.
Alan Crawford
That was really exciting. I've never seen four of my runners come into the finish together before. It was definitely the highlight of the day.
Heather Quarantillo
He's probably going to be one of my top two or three runners, if not my No. 1. If we can get to .500, I would consider that a successful year.
Tim Murphy
Angie laughs at me, but actually, I think she pitches better with runners on base in crucial, pivotal moments of the game. And the first inning was a pivotal moment for us because they pushed us, they tested us, but we put the two-spot on them and kept it going from there.
Tiffany Wills
We plan to create a spectacular race for the runners and their families, one that will become an annual tradition.
Dave Mcgillivray
There was a valuable lesson to be learned there, for all the runners on all the teams. Both teams did so well and battled all day long.
Jody Grove
Once again we couldn't execute. We had six or eight stranded runners. We got the runners on base and then couldn't produce.
Tyann Copeland
The jumps helped us. Some of our distance runners were kind of beat up, so we had them run different things just getting ready for Monday's conference meet.
Scott Brooker
We're still leaving way too many runners in scoring position. We're looking for something perfect (at the plate), and we're getting called out way too many times. That's something that we're working on and we will get better at.
Dick Blasy
You give a team five runs in an inning — well, we didn't give them to (Mountain Crest). We gave them a couple of runs, some runners on base and they came up with big hits.
Shane Jones
We're delighted with the response and we hope that local people will come out in force to support the runners and make it a wonderful experience.
John Reynolds
Our kids had two great days of practice. We responded well and were very determined. We had timely hits with runners on base.
Randy Simkins
Right now, we're doing a lot better in the distance events because we have some of our cross country runners doing well. Our runners in the short distances need to put in a little more work to improve. It takes a lot of work to get better in track.
Roger Romines
He could have had one or two runners doubled off on the line drive, but didn't throw the ball for some reason. He struck the next batter out before facing John.
Bill Buscetto
The key was getting the lead-off runner on base. And then knowing we had to move the runners. They looked at me to call it (the bunt off), but I wouldn't call it off.
Tara Garrett
I want to eventually move up to the marathon and to compete with top runners is a good experience for what lies ahead.
Hitomi Niiya
It is a mass of runners, bobbing like a wave of humanity.
Rich Castro
Everyone makes mistakes. I train other runners, and even I make mistakes on the treadmill.
Patrick Morrissey
Casual hikers with no experience of Leave No Trace (environmentally conscious outdoor ethics) are more likely to have an impact on one single place. That's the main reason for the ridge runners.
Brian King
They're athletes. They're treated like marathon runners or Lance Armstrong. I spend more time cooking for them than myself.
Brain Maas
I don't like to have people do stuff for me. I don't like to have runners go out and get me meals - it's just not normal.
Dave Grohl
They got the ball through the infield when they needed to and we hit the ball right at people with runners on.
Bill Keefer
The only problem I've had is with runners. You know, people who don't pay their fare?
Brandon Graham
To finally get a national championship - she worked so hard and she deserved it. It is hard to come by. There are lots of good runners in our division, but it was well-deserved with how much she wanted it and how hard she worked. She's the best female distance runner we've ever had here - and we've had some good ones, but she heads the list. She's going to be hard to beat.
Ralph White
I thought we pitched well. We just needed a hit when we had runners on base. We made one bad pitch and that cost us.
Jon Deeble
They gave us a little help but we also came through with some big hits when we had runners on base.
Heidi Martin
It's nice when you consider all the different runners from different sections of the community all coming together.
Andrew Gaze
Mitch and Nate did a nice job of displacing a number of other team's top five runners which often times goes unnoticed, but is crucial in the final outcome.
Sean Mcmahon
He is one of the best runners we have and we need to use him more.
Greg Oveson
She has a great on-base percentage and can put the ball just about anywhere that you need in order to advance runners.
Shawn Boggs
We had one hit through the first three innings, but we had several guys on with walks -- we had runners on every inning. We hit better that last few innings.
Pete Porath
They play aggressive defense and a bunt isn't going to get us anything most of the time. It may move a runner along, but we didn't have enough runners to move along.
Don Wernecke
We lost our top five runners to graduation, but these girls are showing a lot of improvement. We've got some others who may help us, too, but it's still too early to tell.
Matt Mcgowan
American runners have lost a little bit of the top. Most of the really good runners coming into town now aren't Americans.
Benji Durden
Normally, the better guys distance themselves from the others. With us, we stay as a group, and help out the inexperienced runners. We push everyone.
Austin Ricker
Kerry Burke was our number one fielder today and she scored the run that got us on the board and that was definitely important. We did leave a lot of runners (nine) in scoring position today, but for the most part I was happy to see that we were getting the bat on the ball.
Kara Suhie
Our goal was to have four runners finish among the top seven. We did exactly that. We ran together well as a group.
Chris George
We got runners on base in that sixth inning, but we didn't do a good enough job of getting them in. If we had scored a few more runs then, it might have made a difference.
Jody O'neal
We were getting runners on base, we had five hits. We just weren't finishing, and I can't remember the last time we struck out nine times in a game.
Stephanie Carroll
They're both power runners. Obviously, Brown's a lot taller than Henry.
Dexter Coakley
I think we'll be better than last year because we have more talented runners.
Mark Ireton
I tell you what, it wouldn't surprise me one bit if she wins it. There are some good runners there, but she's pretty focused, and she's not letting anything get in her way.
Barbara Crousen
With guys like Tramain, Brian, Lamart Barrett, when you have great technique runners, those are the guys who can really hurt defenses because those are the guys who keep drives alive, ... Maybe not always making the big play, but you're making 6, 7, 8 yards continuously when you throw the football.
Jay Davis
It made me very happy to have two runners make all-conference. The kids stepped up and competed very well.
Ian Battles
We finally got the hits when we needed them with runners on base. We also took advantage of the breaks that were given to us.
George Bridge
This was our biggest area of improvement from last year. The depth of runners we have at the springs shows in our relays.
Todd Spanier
It would have been lovely to have two or three more runners, obviously, but we'd rather have a good race with seven than not such a good race with a bigger field.
Ted Taylor
There won't be a lot of police patrols. Runners will be out there with their teams and hopefully acting in a safe manner.
Mary Anderson
Not getting two runners in with only one out really hurt. There are two ways to look at that. It is a positive that we were able to get the runners on base, but it was a negative not being aggressive enough at the plate to bring them in.
Joe Blumberg
Erik and Drew are starting to see that they can run with some of the better runners in these early races. As their confidence continues to grow, I'm sure we'll see them move up a bit closer to Ian. That's even more impressive, as I'm certain that Ian will continue to get faster, as well.
Bill Brist
We hit the ball better but got down early. We were able to climb back but made too many errors in the field and once again, Kimberly was able to get runners in scoring position.
Kelli Mchone
Once we were able to get some runners on, we were able to do some hit and runs and a couple squeezes, something that we have to do with the offense that we have to produce runs.
Peter Blake
They got the hit when they needed it, and we didn't. We left eight runners in scoring position and 12 runners on base overall.
Thad Nelson
We were getting runners on early, but we just couldn't get that key hit. Against this bunch, if you get runners on base, you've got to score.
Robbie Bennett
I usually just do whatever the situation calls for, whether it's moving runners over or bringing someone in or just trying to get on base.
Brad Chalk
We lost some of our better runners from last year. People may not expect us to be as good as we were last year, but I think we're still going to be pretty good.
Ralph Connor
I guess I just have to hit the ball somewhere else. I had an opportunity hit some balls to score some runners tonight and I didn't do the job.
Gavin Dickey
The nice thing about competing down there early is that we have nothing to lose. It's not going to affect our conference standings. It gives the younger runners like Olivia an opportunity to check things out.
Sarah Mccabe
We wasted a good effort by our pitcher. We left 12 runners on base. You come up with a key hit you win the game.
Jack Brooks
We have a lot of confidence in each other. We're at the point now that when we get runners at second and third with two outs, that's not a big deal. We're still going until there are three [outs].
Donovan Nelson
Andy Cutler is very excited about the chance to compete at the Maymont Festival as are all of our runners.
Chris Abel
The mile and the 800 are a reflection of the cross country season. Obviously we are going to have some good distance runners right now.
Scott Walkinshaw
I was surprised. Maybe it's because we were runners-up (in the NESCAC).
Jim Murphy
We relied on runners and ambulance crews passing on information as they dropped patients off. When the last telephone call you receive said eight bombs have gone off, it sounded like Armageddon.
Gareth Davies
I'm just trying to do something, do something to move the runners up. I haven't been swinging the bat the way I should. That's part of the game. I know.
Juan Encarnacion
John will be a great player once he gets accustomed to varsity pitching. In addition to his bat, he has a strong arm. He threw out two of four base runners in the first three games.
Dave Marzano
We have great runners in Brian Dailey and Kevin Denner, but we need to stay healthy, something we have not been able to do. They've been working very hard.
Larry Peacock
We had the kids up that we wanted with runners on base, and we just didn't execute. But you tip your hat to them. They could've folded the tent when Jaclyn was setting some down early in the game. They didn't.
Sean Cotter
I worried he'd hit me in the coconut, so I got into the habit of turning my back to the plate when we had runners on second and third.
Carlos Tosca
(Erica) went toe-to-toe with one of the state's best runners and finished on top.
John Osmanski
Oh God, I'm so excited. We're marathon runners, and marathon runners focus on the goal. The goal was always today and we wanted to pace ourselves for today. We broke the tape today. We won.
Rob Simmons
We expect them to come here and play hard. They try to move runners and get hit by pitches to put pressure on you.
Jay Sferra
Right now, I see a lot of good promise in our younger runners ... I really like our team. I'm so impressed with how hard they work.
Ron Frascht
We haven't seen this, especially with Mobley. He gets command, gets runners on base and makes some good pitches to get out of the inning. Today was one of those days when he didn't find the rhythm.
Luis Dorante
For the 200-meter, I try to cut into the inner lane at the first turn. It's a game with the other runners, kind of like cat and mouse.
Jordine Kimbrel
We'll be encouraging runners to watch their footing and try not to twist their ankle.
Katie Watts
We've got one of the better groups (of distance runners) we've had. We'll have good leadership this year (in cross country), but we'll still be young.
Tom Rutledge
The real serious runners are at the front of the pack.
Connie Feist
As far as from an offensive standpoint, we had chances, we just have to capitalize. If we have those chance again, we just have to drive in runners.
Jay Lasley
We were able to rush for over 200 yards with those two kids. They're different types of runners from Scott, but they are hard-nosed kids.
Chris Coppa
We hit the ball well again. We left 11 runners on base. But I attribute this win to senior leadership with Abby and Beth and Shelby coming up with some big hits for us.
Murray Hynes
We're still after experience and that's the main thing. This is a team with a lot of first year runners and they're making the progress we expect to see out of them.
Bill Martens
The middle part of our line-up did a good job for us, but we still needed to come up with more clutch hits. We left some runners on.
Nelson Castleberry
The world is a better place with more runners in it, because runners are good people.
Bruce Howard
We had chances to score in the first, second and third innings when we left runners in scoring position.
Steve Loud
They laid down the bunt and we had a miscommunication on our defense. We haven't played like that all year. They are a hitting team but they will lay down the bunt with runners on base.
Stephanie Graham
[The front-runners in the bid to represent Hollywood actors are Melissa Gilbert, best known as frontier girl Laura Ingalls from] Little House on the Prairie, ... Rhoda.
Valerie Harper
Jeremy came in there at the end and threw pretty well in my book. He got in a little jam at the end, but got out of it. We didn't have a couple good defensive plays behind him that led to getting a couple base runners on. All-in-all I was pleased with both of them.
Jason Brandt
He's still learning, but once he gets things figured out he could be one of the best distance runners we've had.
Chris Paulson
It's really good because they are out here having fun doing it. Events like this are good for the community because it supports the sport for the younger runners. I'm 57, that's four times the age of these kids.
Steve Kearney
They?re both quick to the hole. They?re real tough runners.
John Mulvaney
There was a teacher there from Port Hawkesbury who teaches in Kugluktuk and she got her team to loan our team their runners so that they could play a little better.
Heather Campbell
When we heard it was going to be low temperatures today I was looking forward to it. Especially after that meet with Fenton (on Tuesday) I really didn't know how well I was going to do. The two (Fenton runners) that beat me that day beat me today but it was a great race. It was nice and cool and I love the cool weather. That's when I run good.
Michael Skinner
No, there is a chance that it will come back. We are in discussions with the show runners. And we have to have an announcement one way or the other soon. If we are able to renew and are able to bring the show back, it would probably come back in January of '07.
Peter Ligouri
I was battling that at-bat. I had two strikes and some runners on base. I was just trying to hit the ball hard somewhere.
Chris Aguila
We put a lot of extra runners on base. Then we had some untimely errors and they had timely hitting.
Dave Dunham
The boys' strengths will be the field events and the relays. The girls' strengths will be the relays and hurdles. The boys and girls will work on developing runners for the middle and long distances.
Tom Schroeder
Everybody produced. We got runners on and moved them around.
Chris Tippins
She's not asking to be competitively scored against able-bodied runners, but she doesn't want to be forced to run around the track all by herself.
Lauren Young
If it scares the runners and distracts them, they might trip or fall into another one of the runners.
John Bradley
They didn't come in bunches. I think we had opportunities to score more than we did. A couple of times we left some runners out there.
Jason Shirey
I was very, very pleased. It was better than what I expected. I knew that my front two runners (Johnson and Griffith) would have a chance finishing one and two. For my team to have runners coming in one, two, three and four was more than I could hope for. So, I was very, very pleased with everybody's effort.
Chris Warner
We're just having a snake-bit year. We hit the ball hard, but it's right at them or they make a great defensive play. You can't do anything about that, but I am concerned about the number of runners we're leaving on base.
Jim Perrin
We're certainly a lot deeper. Last year our No. 1 through 7 runners were set and there was a line between 7 and 8. Now we have 1, 2 and 3 running together, and then everyone else.
Kris Alexander
It may sound simple, but we need to catch and throw. We also have to pick up some hits with runners in scoring position.
Cooper Farris
We've got a pretty good corps of distance runners. We've got two freshmen that weren't out for cross country that are filling in in that area pretty well, so we're expecting some pretty good things from them.
Barb Heitka
We aren't getting hits, that's pretty much what it comes down to. We are leaving too many runners on base and we are not executing in key situations.
Mindy Hanson
A lot of the conversations I have with fellow runners are very esoteric.
Bill Buffum
When the field events do well, the track (runners) come right behind them.
Leroy Millsap
I can bunt better to move runners, and I can hit better. I've worked on it and want to see how much I've improved.
Brian Moehler
The Air Max 360 is an innovation milestone for Nike and for runners. A dream more than 20 years in the making, Air Max 360 reflects Nike's product innovation commitment to create a full air cushioning system for runners. We've replaced foam with 360 degrees of Nike Air, creating the most cushioned Air Max running shoe ever and allowing runners to experience the feeling of running on air.
Mark Parker
We do have quite a few boys. I am happy with the number we did get this year. We have a lot of new runners and a lot of young runners.
Walt Hasis
The women's team has a solid pack through six runners, and we won't plan to rely on just one person to compete well. It will be a true team effort.
Vin Lananna
I had a little bit of anxiety. Being one of the top runners in Kansas and you get to Tulsa and everyone is a state champion somewhere. So not knowing whether or not I'm going to be as successful was a big part of it.
A.j. Ellison
We got some walks and some hits with runners in scoring position, ... Those are the little things you have to do. You're not always going to get the three-run homer.
Rich Aurilia
Offensively we had runners on all game. But, we couldn't get that key hit until we exploded for 5 runs in the sixth inning.
Brad Schmitt
Sam pitched very well for us, we just have to get some of those runners to score.
Andrew Bradley
When we get runners in scoring position somebody has to step up.
Jim Hillman
She's awesome. She definitely has a runner's body - those long legs and long stride.
Hannah Hottle
We laid down an ink trail to confuse the other runners.
Kevin Mccormick
I told my running backs that they were going to have to turn themselves into mud runners, and that's what they did.
Keith Wilkes
My focus will be to put the ball in play, not strike out and move runners. I've always prided myself on being a good production guy. On defense I'll get after it. I'll throw some exciting plays in there.
Craig Stansberry
We left runners on base in a few innings, but we kept it close in every game. It was great to play at a high level.
Becky Demuth
As a team, we have a lot of work to do. This was several of the girls' first varsity race. We were also missing two runners to illness.
Mark Boggs
The thing about Darcy is she is just so tough when it comes to runners in scoring position and knowing when she really needs to bear down.
Brenda Coldren
He's developed into an elite class of the some of the great distance runners we've had in the past. He could be a state finalist in either (1,600) or (3,200).
Frank Russo
With runners at first and third, I was just thinking of laying down a bunt to get the run in. I'm not a home run hitter, so I surprised myself and it was a great feeling.
Tsuyoshi Nishioka
The one thing with this team is that they are a team. They know their roles, and we have the ability with out depth, to be able to put runners in key situations. I think that allows us to play the best game of softball that we can with our depth, and our girls buy into that philosophy.
Chad Slyter
We know that's going to be our key to winning games. Before, earlier in league play, we had trouble getting runners in when they were on base. We worked on it and now we are coming through.
Bree Larson
Not only was our pack back, but it was tighter than when they ran at [Burr and Burton]. There was only a 37-second gap between the first and fifth runners.
Kevin Quinn
It is a good feeling to have that many guys up there. It is a good conference and the competition is really outstanding. The whole league is tight. I am impressed with the runners, they did a good job.
Cecil Burch
It was an absolute perfect throw. If he doesn't make that play it's 5-4 with runners at second and third and one out. It was a big play.
Bill Buscetto
The ball was definitely carrying more today than usual. (South Medford) got the big hit when they needed it and we left nine runners on base.
Jay Campbell
We've just been working so long on that four-by-two. We finally have runners that ... they're just amazing runners. It was exciting. We've worked very hard on that and we have a great coach.
Christina Rountree
They mostly recruit distance runners. They noticed how I've progressed through high school. They told me I have a lot of room to improve once I get to college.
Derek Allen
It kind of gets into your blood and you can to talk to runners who will say that.
Katie Watts
Basically, Crist and Davis are nominal front-runners. Going in, they are going to be the favorites.
Brad Coker
For the tie-breaker, we go to the books and it's broken down into runners to third, runners to second, runners to first and hits. We were tied at third base 5-5, then won it 7-5 at second.
Scotty Nichols
Offensively and defensively we executed pretty well. Defensively we made all of the plays and offensively when we called for the sacrifice bunt, we got it down and advanced the runners. Then, we got some timely hits to score those runs.
Dale Lortz
We have to keep scoring when we have runners in position to score. That has to happen for the rest of the season.
Kelly Witte
We need to get a couple more hits because we're leaving too many runners on base. That seems to be our mantra this year, unfortunately.
April Stary
Uniqueness of contribution will be a considered more often in the case of a tie between a few students. We also may have runners-up, depending on the number of nominations we get.
Valerie Knopp
It's not very often that you get a group of runners like this run through the program at the same time. They love to work hard, and they know what they need to do.
Dave Zittleman
Our bats came alive after the first inning. We hit the ball really well. We just couldn't score when we had runners in scoring position. We just couldn't connect then.
Clifford Lewis
A lot of guys are fast, but they're linear runners.
Thom Mcdaniels
It definitely got away from us today. We need to get our girls ready to hit with runners on to score those runs in the first place.
Heather Mccrimmon
We got runners on base without a problem. We just didn't have any timely hits. If we would have got a hit or two with runners in scoring position, it would have been a different game.
Gordon Eakin
There really is a legitimate up-for-grabs nature to the race. In neither case can you say that [Crist and Davis are] solid front-runners.
Brad Coker
We were calling pitches to pitch around Ovens, but the pitchers weren't pitching it. It's that simple. We weren't calling for fastballs down the middle with base-runners on with the best hitter on their team standing there. They couldn't hit spots, and if you couldn't hit spots, he'll hit the ball.
Dave Moates
We didn't appreciate the impact at the start. It was really a defensive maneuver for the runners as well as spectators. People saw the blue line and knew to stay away if they didn't want to be involved on race day.
Rick Noble
Dustin is leading us and the rest of the runners are following him. He?s determined and realizing what he can do.
George Patrylak
It is amazing to watch him run. He starts out so fast and the other runners try to keep up and they just can't. It is a big honor to have him break those records.
Heath Gibson
We lost track of two runners. You can only do that once against Sandpoint.
Eric Louis
The distance runners are running really well right now. Overall, it was just a fantastic weekend for us. Out of the five events we competed in, we had four personal bests, two school records and a provisional national qualifying mark. The real reason we came here was to run fast and throw far, and we did that this weekend.
Eric Hunt
We stranded a lot of base runners tonight. Pat (Gonzales) finally got that big hit with the bases loaded.
Eric Gutierrez
We were not near aggressive enough to be effective on a day like today. We left a number of runners stranded. We just weren't able to get the hit when we needed it.
Eric Dazey
It was a great experience. There are so many positive feelings and energy amongst the crowd and the runners. It was a great uplifting experience and I'm so glad I came.
Eric Wortman
At the beginning of the race at the runner's village, I met some people from my high school. They gave me lots of pointers about the race. At mile 16, they warned me to relax instead of going for it and I did, which turned out be a good thing for me.
