It's taken a season. Rushing with a guy like Jason ... you know he's kind of unpredictable in his rush because he's going to take what the offense gives him. He's going to force the issue, but if he sees he can beat (the offensive lineman) inside, he's going to beat him inside.

Vonnie Holliday

The regular team missed state by two individual matches [this season].

Hope Baldwin

We have our full offensive line back from the start of the season.

Byron Jones

Dan wasn't a starter last season but he's really stepped up his game. He's one of our co-captains along with John Moll and he brings some fire to the court.

Miguel Cabrita

We are down (numbers) a little bit from last year. We had 28 runners last season.

Matt Seeley

Obviously there's frustration, but there are a lot of veterans in this locker room. It's about building for the entire season. What we need to build our team on is defense.

Pete Vagenas

We might have had some false expectations as to how good we are at this point of the season.

Aaron Holmes

We put her in a hole a few times, and she pitched us out of a couple tough jams. She pitched an excellent game, and it's a nice start (to the season).

Nick Scheno

This ranks as one of the best wins this season. The more meaningful games we win in February will hopefully help us play more meaningful games in March.

Tom Crean

It is kinda tough because it seem like everyone is running for second place. I have been trying to chip away all season.

George Anderson

Everything went well. The doctor told him that he should be ready to go by the time next season begins.

Ray Tanner

I need to work on more of my offensive game. This year, I was just trying to get on the court. I want to be a go-to player (next season).

Jessica Ross

We didn't want the season to end and we're not the type of group that gives up.

Katie Connor

It can be difficult at times, especially during the season when you're so focused to be prepared for Saturday. I tell kids all the time to enjoy it while you can.

Reggie Collier

It's tough to try to come back from 0-2 in Class D. It would definitely be a struggle. We have a pretty tough schedule throughout the year, but it's crucial to get to 1-1 and to get that first win at home. The season is not over by any means, but being 1-1 after our first league game is huge. It's a big game for us.

Jamie Freeland

We are taking all the steps that are appropriate to reach our goals for the season. The girls have done a phenomenal job. These wins were all about them.

Stacy Phillips

We were extremely pleased with Eddie's progress and development last season. He is a player who has a wealth of talent and potential, and we believe that he will continue to improve and become an impact player for us.

Kevin Mchale

It's actually fairly critical that we have a definitive time frame, because as we move into the Christmas season, a number of hotels have reservations and bookings. It may become more challenging for us to find accommodations.

John Ashcroft

Bobby is working hard. He really wants the job this season. He's being pushed by sophomore Tyler Dupree.

Rich Mccoppin

This was an awesome season and this game doesn't take away from that. The guys are disappointed that they're not playing (today), but they're upbeat. Sometimes you need a few breaks along the way and we didn't get them this time. We played with a lot of heart, passion and emotion. It was an awesome experience.

Leonard Barnes

We definitely have room for improvement on our overall play this season. We need to become more consistent in all parts of the game. Defense is something that we are struggling with.

Joyce Compton

Central is probably the best 10-12 team I've seen in a long time. They've played bigger schools like Lanier and Carver, so they've taken some losses. From what I hear, they've just gotten better late in the season.

Chris Goodman

Personally, I'm satisfied with how the season went. You always expect perfection, but how we finished this season will set a good tone for next year.

Ryan O'callaghan

I think it's just refocusing. Some of it is that it's do-or-die time. They don't want to stop playing. Part of it is a new season. What we did before doesn't even make any difference. I'm hoping that they've learned some things.

Steve Hudson

It was determined at the emergency room that she would miss four to six weeks, which is basically the rest of the season. It was determined in Brooke's best interest not to rush her healing process to ensure that she would not have problems later in life with the injury recurring.

Todd Bright

It's been bothering him all season. We've been using him sparingly all year so far.

Dean Mason

I told them we came out there and played with good effort. We played as a team. We got better and worked on some things in the second half to help prepare us for conference games later in the season.

Katie Gravel

My goal this season is to make it into the regional finals. I have more desire and strength this season and feel I am ready.

Nick White

We really had to battle for it, and the girls made tremendous improvement throughout the season. They have played so well in the second half of league, and that was our goal.

Cari Strange

It is not unique to Arnett to fire a coach. After evaluation of 10 years, you coming close to the end of the Premier League season, and for the past three years Arnett Gardens has not found itself in the top four.

Patrick Roberts

We've already had mid-season sales. I'd argue that punters are doing what they do at Christmas and waiting to see who blinks first.

David Stoddart

We lost some games early in the season when we didn't knock down free throws when we needed to. It's something we work on in practice every day and try to make it competitive. Tonight, it paid off.

Joe Konieczny

He is quick, a great finisher and will be important for Wycombe this season.

Chris Kamara

We have changed the objective now to sell out every league game of the season. The response from the fans has been great.

Phil Anderton

Over the season, there are lots of ifs and buts about the way it turned out, but they deserve their success.

Paul Terry

I'd imagine half the guys who will play out here will get an opportunity to play in the pre-season competition.

Dean Laidley

We'll make our own review and compare his blood levels against other tests conducted throughout the season. Our internal tests revealed his blood counts were above his limits allowed in his contract. He's not fired for now, but he's been told to take a rest until we can conduct our review.

John Lelangue

Maggie has shown she has the tools to be an impact player. She can score and has the skills to mesh with our attacking philosophy, so we're hoping for a strong final season from her.

Randy Waldrum

I've been drag racing since I was 6 years old. I've not had a lot of success here and to win it when this hasn't been our best season is just great.

Del Worsham

That stuff impacts the way guys play. I know this, we're ecstatic to be here. But, I'd think we would be happy with any bowl. Given how our season went, we're fortunate to be anywhere.

Brian Ferentz

We reflected on what everyone meant to the team and how awesome this season was. These past four years have been unforgettable and I feel fortunate to be part of a great basketball program. ... I'm glad we got to finish with a much better season than last year (7-15).

Kylie Mcclure

I'm really proud of the girls. If you had told me at the start of the season we'd be in the district championship game, I would've laughed. But these girls just work extremely hard.

Herm Vanweerdhuizen

We're going to have to find a way to win. Going back and analyzing our two games in the regular season, they got most of their points off fast breaks, so we've got to do a better job of getting back on defense.

Dewayne Drakeford

Any coach that graduated 11 kids isn't going to tell you they are ready to win the whole thing. If they do, they are crazy. We had a ton of holes to fill. We lost a lot of good players. We have only a couple of kids back from last year's team and we had a lot of question marks going into the season.

Lou Urbano

Mohammad has done remarkably well in his recent performances for Pakistan and we hope he can carry that form into our season.

Tim Boon

We have been impressed with the way the game has been played at Coors Field this season. And I really believe it has helped us on the road.

Keli Mcgregor

I don't believe in riding one pitcher the whole season. I believe in having as many good pitchers as possible ready to contribute whenever necessary.

Scott Docherty

Ford Ironman Florida continues to grow due to the high turnout of age-group triathletes as well as major pros competing in the event, ... The venue in Panama City attracts new athletes each year, and many pros come back to race before the season ends.

Graham Fraser

Last season we were fourth in the conference as seventh-graders but when we defeated New Lenox Martino, I knew this season had some real good possibilities.

Wardie Sain

It's so early in the season, he'll obliterate (Porter's) record.

Chad Nightingale

I would not say I was surprised with the success I had. I have worked hard and I expect to do well. I would never have expected to be in an all-star game. That was not a goal going into the season. That was something extra.

Brian Fuentes

It has been outstanding. We have had a really good season.

Beverly Thomas

It was much more exciting that I would have liked. We're a young team, but we can't use that excuse anymore. We're 15 games into the season. That's an excuse you can you get away with five or six games into a season. Our kids have matured, and they need to manage pressure.

Derrick Gibson

November typically marks the beginning of the growth season in stocks. This is due in large part to pension fund buying patterns, which have produced an average gain of 5 percent from November 1 to January 31 over the last 50 years.

Doug Fabian

Don't count us out. We're looking forward to playing this team because they embarrassed us last time. It will make for a good season if we beat them.

Jordan Kopac

That was some of the best defense we've played all season.

Derek Ergle

We feel that our current record could be a little bit better. We want to improve with every game and we want to be able to peak at the end of the season.

Meg Ashley

A lot of this will come down to two-a-days. A lot of these guys will work hard this off-season, have a good off-season, and who knows. It will be interesting.

Chuck Broyles

It's gonna be a really good summer, a really good travel season for St. Louis.

Donna Andrews

We knew in the beginning of the season we could have great chemistry. It was a great feeling to be out there together again.

Vincent Grier

Just because I won last year doesn't mean anything. You can't overlook anybody at this level because everyone is trying to do what they can to win. That's the only pressure I feel. The only thing that matters at this point of the season is to go out and beat the guy across from you and move on to the next match. I really want to place at states this year, and that's the only way I can do it.

Justin Rivera

Having a lot of us back is going to help. We've done great this season with the team we have, so it'll be even better next year.

Ashley Reed

If we do (lose consecutive games to start the season) I have a bad feeling about the whole thing around. We will be staring that zero in the face.

Lane Larive

This is his third season with us and we feel that he has developed real nicely. We think that he is a big part of the future of our hockey team.

Paul Holmgren

I think anytime you play a game like that it makes you more determined. Nobody likes to end their season with a loss. And while it's been an excellent season up to this point, we're still learning and striving to improve. It's an ongoing process. We still can get better.

Charles Mcdonald

I would've loved it. That would've been a great opportunity for me, with my size and everything. I sorted of expected it. I didn't play last year. No one really knew who I was until after the season. By then, I didn't have much momentum.

Jeff Mroz

We had several key plays in the game's final minutes, and it was really an overall team effort. The girls played hard like they have all season long, and it's still paying off for us.

Roy Backus

I've never been more proud of anyone my whole life. I've seen her go through so many hardships and so many ups and downs and to finally come at the end of the season and finally get her 1,000th point. I think to end with a championship and a win is the best possible reward she could possibly have.

Ally Olewine

I don't know what it is about baseball season. It brings out the best in people. It's a good atmosphere.

Sam Richard

For me to blame my season on injury, to me that's just an excuse. I still had 350 at-bats that I didn't do much with.

Corey Koskie

We got a chance to play everybody. At the end of the season, everything is magnified.

Mike Hamburger

We probably have 10 to 12 guys on our basketball team that will have 40 quarters of experience for next year. If we can get a win (Friday) it will give us some momentum. For any kind of win will help us with the season we're having. It's able to keep the kids energized and excited about coming to practice and the players have done a good job.

Jerry Groves

The team they had in the playoffs was totally different from the team we played earlier in the season. We knew that coming in.

Don Henry

We just need everybody healthy, get everybody on the same page and in a rhythm and finish the season off strong. We need to get our confidence going.

James Posey

Overtime is our time. What a better way to win a national championship than in overtime, which was our time all season long?

Marissa Coleman

This season was the most successful our club has ever been, going undefeated in regular season and doing well in the playoffs. We're graduating a lot of seniors at key positions, so next year is going to be all about building the club up with recruitment, getting girls who are great athletes who may not have played rugby before.

Phoebe Boone

The positive side is that we put together about 12 minutes of play where our offense, defense and kicking game played probably as well as we could play at this particular point of the season. That was only 12 or so minutes, though.

Bill Snyder

Playoff games are always different than the regular season. You're going to miss more shots and make more mistakes. It's just the way it is.

Butch Wade

A lot of these teams we've lost to simply have more experience than we do. But these guys know in their heads that they're playing better volleyball now than they were at the beginning of the season.

Matt Grimm

You don't want to go into the postseason 0-4 in your last four games. It really doesn't matter what you do in the first couple months of the season, but it's how you're playing right now.

Shaun Ratay

The grapes are an edible food crop and at the same time provide shade during the heat of the summer. And ... its leaves fall off allowing maximum sun penetration during the cold season.

Roger Tomalty

We have a lot of guys who didn't come into the season with much playing experience. It's taken a long time to get them to buy into our philosophy, but once they started accomplishing some goals things, started going our way.

Chuck Roach

They just keep getting better each year. This year, they scrimmaged some (high-profile) programs (to get ready for the season). They had a lead in both games this year, but ended up losing in the fourth quarter. They play hard, and they can hit.

Paul Reid

We've been pretty fortunate and haven't had any accidents. It works out pretty well. Since adult supervisors aren't hunting they can pay attention to the juniors. During the general season there is a greater chance for an incident if the adult is hunting as well.

Sean Allen

I feel really sorry for our players, they played a great game. They gave a tremendous effort and I have seen a lot of improvement. I am very confident in our players and I think we are going to have a great season.

John Bluem

It's a real nice end to the indoor season. It was kind of like saving her best for last.

Bob Stockslager

Each year we have had a group of seniors to lead the others. This group is capable of stepping into that role next season.

Phil Willard

We look forward to competing this season with an improved football team, building off the success from last season. Whether we are on the road or here at Edwards Stadium, we'll be prepared to face each opponent with the effort, intensity and execution necessary to compete at the highest level.

Bronco Mendenhall

They're our friends. We hung with them at Florida State in a tournament during the season. But now, they're coming into our place.

Brian Brooks

I'm spending more time this season outside. I'm not in the post as much as I was last season. We got some good scorers and I think it helps the team out if I can do my part to get them in a position to score.

Tom Radtke

We always have a nice little rivalry with them so it's a nice way to start the season, beating a county rival.

Ruth Shields

It's not surprising. You could tell that they were right there last season.

Kraig Clifton

The City definitely is one of our primary goals. It's one of the longest-running tournaments in the state, and it's always a springboard into the second half of our season.

Larry Nicks

Our goal is to use the regular season as a springboard and have our best product at the end. I'm pleased with our team chemistry. That's something we haven't always had.

Tony Bauman

This is a completely new season. You can almost call this a different sport.

Sasa Cuic

I am not going to get too carried away, ... But it is a good three points and we have made a pleasing start to the season. We have a lot of cracking young players who can only go on to achieve bigger and better things.

Gary Locke

We got it all around today -- great pitching to keep them off balance, some great defensive plays and some timely hitting. I'm really proud of them and hope this is a step forward for us toward the end of the season.

Jeanne Lunsford

That's not good enough. We charted out 47 passes and 25 runs per game last season. We need to increase the number of carries per game. We need to get better than a 4-yard average.

Mark Mchale

The district is on our mind. We want to have our two best practices and play our best game of the season Friday (hosting Spearfish). I want us to think of nothing else but playing Spearfish for the next three days.

Mike Purcell

Our goal all season has been to win the sectional championship, so we are going to be ready to play no matter who it is. We are playing with a lot of confidence, but we are not over-confident. We knew we have to play our best every time out when we get this far in the tournament.

Ceola Clark

Coming into my second season it was easier. They knew what to expect and I knew what to expect with them. Next year should be easier with having so many kids back.

Dave Gustin

Today's kind of a microcosm of the season. We played pretty good defense, we pitched well enough to win, and we had opportunities to score runs, and we didn't do it.

Tim Jamieson

Our team played one of its best halves of the season in the first half. For Wexler, that was one of the most focused and intense halves of soccer I've ever seen him play.

Dave Platt

I definitely don't feel like I've had the kind of season I planned on this year. No excuses. I've had some things I've had to face that were a little more difficult than I thought, but I plan on being on top at the end of this weekend.

Mark Perry

It's good to win close games. You learn from close games. I think it's good to learn from them right now rather than to not have close games and then have them at the end of the season.

Derek Coleman

It's the season to scam, gate, bash and amokize every noun around Washington.

David Smith

There's always a place for her athleticism and she should get some more time this season, ... She gives us depth in the back row, especially with Kacie out.

Mike Watkins

Music is so hot right now. It appeals to both boys and girls of all ages. This holiday season people will have less money in their pockets. They want a toy that will stretch further.

John Barbour

Ross Hartley and Evan Williams have both really done well. They have both been in the championship rounds this year and have gained some experience. They have some wins under their belt and that experience will help them as the season progresses.

Brad Harris

That's why we need to try to win a conference championship first. We've got to stay healthy. Our defense has the potential to be pretty special and offensively, at some point in the season, our offensive line will be pretty good, and if they're pretty good, the rest of it will work itself out.

Roy Kirby

We did so well at Newcastle. It was one of our best performances of the season - and to come away with nothing was devastating. But that's been the story of our season.

Liam Lawrence

I think Christina winning this award not only reflects on her personal improvement, but also the improvement of the entire team. Each one of our divers is completely focused on the upcoming championship season.

Dr. Jeff Huber

They did everything they wanted to do tonight. They looked in mid-season form and we looked like we were in exhibition season not knowing what we're doing. Too many times we were confused as to what we wanted to do on offense and that caused us a lot of problems.

Jerry Sloan

Not too many people can reach center field in that park. Not too many big men can [go] opposite field like that either. Forty-eight [the number of home runs Howard hit last season in the Minors] is a lot no matter where you hit them.

Michael J. Tucker

She could hardly wait until next season.

Cara Enright

One of our strongest aspects of play this season has been a strong defensive system.

Nick Roefaro

The kind of season Kyle had in 2003 indicates what he is capable of on the field. He should fit in nicely in the outfield (J.D. Foust was signed earlier), but I'm also excited to see what another big bat can do for our lineup.

Hal Lanier

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

It's been very positive. In the typical November to December shopping season we would expect 3.5 million shoppers, and a little over two million of that occurs in December.

Debbie Martinez

It's pretty much in keeping with the reporting season so far where we've seen a mixed bag of good and bad results. The market is still close to its top so we're going to have to wait a bit before there's any real indication where it should go.

Don Hamson

We were a little worried this season that we didn't have a pool. Every league match was on the road.

Scott Ward

He's finishing better than he was earlier in the season. His defense was 100 times better than the last time we played Michigan.

Thad Matta

This is quite significant because what we saw during the back-to-school season was that Dell was really willing to take on the retailers like Best Buy and CompUSA by offering free shipping with a PC bundle for as low as $299.

Toni Duboise

This season was a lot of fun. We knew we probably wouldn't win much playing against guys, but it was a really fun season. The only thing that would have made it more fun would have been winning a little more.

Kelly Weidenbach

Me and Jai are pretty good friends. We'll be living with each other in a condo, making the best of it and getting ourselves ready for the season.

Jeff Allison

That's been our story all season. We have four players averaging in double figures. One night it's one girl, the next night it's another.

Linda Kilpatrick

What started out to be a real successful season, we've got to somehow pull it together.

Leslie Howard

We're hopeful of securing him on loan until the end of the season and then making it permanent after that.

Terry Westley

We have overcome injuries and sicknesses and wrestled real well at the state tournament. It's been a long season but we'll remained focused.

Trevor Carritt

That's the kind of consistency we are looking for this season. We have good pitching, and the girls in the field are making plays.

Ann Molski

He had a solid race. He always does this. He's good at bringing his very best late in the season.

Gary Towne

It's been a long season and its hard to get up for an event so late in the year.

Michelle Perry

[Jeff Lewis, drum major and trumpet player, said the band's goal this year is to make it out of Saturday's district.] If we can do that, I'd feel we had an accomplished season, ... Time For a Change.

Jeff Lewis

Their talent is 10 times better than us. It's the first time (this season) I felt we battled the whole, entire game.

Sherri Murrell

We'll take the split after the way we played in the first game. We'll bounce back. We just want to have a chance to win it at the end of the season.

Chad Logan

One of the better pitchers we have seen all season. It just happened that there in the fifth it started to fall apart for her. Her defense wasn't helping her out too much and it just snowballed from there.

Jennifer Nolte

The season ended on a very sore note. We had a player who played in a Mexican League, which made him ineligible. But how do we police this? How do we keep tabs on every player? To label us as bad guys in that situation is a joke.

Nick Markulin

We were there for three innings. If we stay consistent we'll do well the rest of the season.

Franco Chavez

It's like a preparation for war. It literally is. We're conditioned as athletes to recognize the culmination of our season. Here it is. You have to change your attitude as you go into the playoffs, change your mentality, change how you go about every day. As a player, you basically have to extend yourself past your normal boundaries, because once you're done, you're done. You see the finish line.

Aaron Ward

Brandon is having an outstanding season. He just goes out there every match and attacks his opponent.

Russ Witzig

It's a little strange. You never figure something like this happening with just a couple of days left in the season, but as soon as you think you've seen everything, something else comes up, ... I'm happy to come over here and help them out.

Mike Stanton

It just wasn't there tonight. (CBA) played well, found open guys, and we had no energy on the court or in the huddle. We'll go back to the drawing board and smooth our egos a little bit. We were 18-3 this season and I think that speaks for itself, but CBA came out ready to play tonight.

Mark Sausville

I think we're making really good strides. This is gonna be a test, the test, to see if we can play at the level I think we're capable of playing. Our goal going into the season was to try to regain the league championship. If we want to do that, this is a must-win.

Mark Buchanan

I try to pick shows that are a contrast for the season. This was just something different.

David Hastings

When Pedro left at the end of the season, his weight was down 10-12 pounds. He has put that weight back on and is in great condition. He wants to do the same things he did last year in preparation for the season, the same program.

Guy Conti

We're feeling great, facing a pitcher like Abbott. Having as many big hits as we did is great. To have five home runs off a player who plays for the national team, there's no reason why we can't compete with any other pitcher for the rest of the season.

Stacey Stevens

It's another game that we just have to play through and look forward to next season. Nobody was able to stop their dribble-penetration in the second half.

Kirk Archibeque

Last year I finished in the 20s. This has probably been my best season ever.

Kitt Flowers

Brody has good basketball skills. He has come along well all season.

Joe Kinch

One of our goals was to be league champs. We talked about playing our best basketball at the end of the season and they are playing their best basketball. Our depth has won us a lot of games.

Keith Hennig

Mild weather is one of the factors, and we're going into the heating-oil season with high stocks.

Christopher Bellew

It's premature to talk about the league tournament. We'll adjust our goals if we keep having a better-than-average season. To finish in the top four is a pretty hearty goal.

Mike Dutton

I hope our best is good enough to get us through. Our team going to state is goal we've been talking about since the beginning of the season and we can still pull it off.

Christina Deboer

The regular season is a marathon. It's a long season, and there's no way you can play that hard for that many games a year. …The playoffs are more of a sprint when you have to give that extra 20, 25 percent that you might not give when you are playing the fourth game in five nights during the season.

Troy Neumeier

You guys know it always takes me a couple months before I get it going anyway in a season. I should be ready for the playoffs.

Patrik Elias

Personally, I think I'm playing better than the first two matches of the season. I'm finally getting the kinks out and my nerves are better. I'm feeling more comfortable on the court.

Jamie Berg

These awards are not single season achievement awards, but rather reward coaches for a cumulative career of accomplishments, not necessarily all of which take place on the court or field.

Tim Flannery

I felt like we finished the season very strongly. I feel good about the kids coming back.

Bill Legg

I think teams accepted bids here because it makes sense to play good teams early in the season, ... It's being run in a classy, big-time way, which is really fun.

John Dunning

The last couple years we've been in a rebuilding phase. But we've really turned the season around from a few years ago. We have a lot more depth on the team.

Bill Moyer

So many people ran so fast this season. It will be more difficult this time to win. But I am looking forward to this race.

Allen Johnson

Last year, we kind of picked up where we left off. We came out and beat Laurel, handing them their only regular-season loss.

Rich Schneider

We've improved on so many different things — being able to stop the run, dropping back into pass coverage. We just learn so many things from week-to-week we just get better every day, so we'll always keep improving through the season.

Paul Posluszny

I was going full gas in January and I just didn't have any gas left in the tank after a long season, ... Right now, it kind of stings. I wanted to go out on a high note and I wouldn't have even raced if I thought I was going to get 11th, but I have nothing to be ashamed of. It just proves I'm human and I do have limits.

Bobby Julich

It was a brave decision to keep her in training this season but Kieren Fallon said last year that he thought she might just win a Group One and maybe we can make that come true now.

Chris Richardson

They played tough, and we played tough. One team had to win, and one team had to lose. That's tough on us, because we had a great season.

Pete Cinella

We said after the tournament was over the second season starts. We're totally focused on our district now. There's going to be a lot of parity and plenty of close game in our district this season.

Katie Brunelle

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

That's really the defensive effort we've been looking for all season. Hopefully, it's a sign of us coming together. It's our first road win and we're at the point in the season where we badly needed it. The kids realized that and showed up with a slightly different mentality then we've had the last couple of games and it showed on the court.

John Kuckel

He was real rebellious the first half of the season. He didn't want to listen to us. He had his own game plan. Then we'd get back and break down videos and ask him, 'Is this you, or is this somebody else?' He really matured in January. I think he finally got tired of us beating on him.

Jorge Amaya

My junior year was a stepping stone to my senior season. That was my first full season running. I knew I was going to be better my senior year.

A.j. Ellison

It's different than it was last year. We graduated a lot of kids last year. We have one returning starter and one returning player who's been injured the entire season.

Gary Crane

Bill Davis Stadium has been ranked as one of the best college baseball stadiums in the country and I think Ohio State fans have done a great job creating an extremely positive atmosphere. I can't believe it is the 10th season.

Bob Todd

We're still trying to figure out each other. We need to learn how to play with each other. It's going to be an interesting season because of that.

Peja Stojakovic

Home ice is a goal we start every season with. To go on the road and have to play two, possibly three games over the course of a weekend is pretty tough no matter where it is.

Brian Yandle

Brands will succeed on the Web this holiday season. Companies beginning to get exposure right now will have a major uphill fight to get brand recognition.

Allen Weiner

They grow up playing softball, basketball, field whatever-it-is. The thing about rugby that's so great is these kids come out, and in one season, they learn to play the game. And not only that, they've learned how to play and to win the championship.

Karen Falana

I was concerned with how we would react after what happened against CBA. Especially after we fell behind 10-2. But our guys never overreacted. We're a young team, but that's something we try not to talk about. Tonight was our biggest road win of the season.

Richard Hurley

They (the team) didn't want to end the season today. This was a good, solid, team effort.

Mike Wescott

We're in the midst of the U.S. reporting season, which looks pretty good. Companies in Europe seem to have been publishing good numbers, so I think the fundamentals are still pretty positive.

Chris Iggo

It's been there since halfway through the season. Yeah, it's been there all year and it's sad and disappointing. I don't know what's going to happen with this group.

Markus Naslund

Coquille jumped out to an 11-2 lead then we outscored them 26-8 the rest of the first half. It was our most consistent game of the year. This was our best shooting game of the season by far. Dinah played great at point guard for us tonight.

Gary Olson

I'm really proud of them. They have done an outstanding job this season.

Brian Turner

The team is playing stronger and stronger as the season goes on, ... In addition to the ability to score off the assist we had Nick Fortunati as a dominating force in the mid field all day.

David O'donnell

We won the league, that was the goal we set for ourselves at the beginning of the season. Our next goal is to finish undefeated in the league.

Dan Dougherty

Ed wasn't going to let that happen to us again. He needed confidence in his knee to get past the injury, and the determination he showed that season was something special.

Jim Harrick

I wasn't really sure what to expect coming into the season. I knew David had talent, but I certainly didn't expect him to be undefeated this late in the season.

Don Cooley

People are already worried about supplies for the driving season, even this early on. There's going to be a price reaction if there are any signs of shortages.

Andrew Harrington

I don't know the numbers, but I'd bet he hit .310 over the last half of the season.

Rick Forney

It will be interesting to see if we break the peak as the winter hiring season begins.

Joe Winter

This is a great feeling to know that we are able to return this season and successfully defend our title. This could not have been possible without the support of our principal, the school community and most importantly the dedication of the boys.

Oral Simpson

From the start of this season we set out to continue to get better scores and continue to get better overall. Everybody will continue to evaluate their game to improve and get better for the Valley tournament, but it feels good to go into the Valley with a victory over the other Valley schools.

Pina Gentile

My dad really started to love football during my sophomore season, which meant a lot to me because he could see me playing a sport where I really excelled. I want to make my dad proud of me.

Julian Dalanhese

A lot of teams would've gone in the tank. We weren't going to let one bad game ruin our season.

Curtis Martin

The more I watched him play, the more film I watched, the more I realized there was going to be a hell of a lot more good doing it his way than my way. And at the beginning of this season, we made the commitment that we're going to eat a couple of turnovers, or we're going to eat a bad shot here and there, and we're going to see where it goes. And this is where it's gone.

Gregg Popovich

Smith was tremendous in keeping them quiet and off the bases and making sure we had a chance to hang on and win. That's just what Bill does. He's been doing it for us all season and will keep doing it. He just goes out there all the time and competes.

Mark Jelks

The first game was the big one. It was probably the best game we played from start to finish this season.

Roger Spring

Hughes played very well tonight. It was his best game of the season thus far.

Scott Demonte

It's my first chance of playing against a big team, but this season I've been playing regularly against better players in the Heineken Cup and it's given me a lot more confidence.

Mike Phillips

What an atmosphere for a high school football game. It was just the fourth game of the season. But it was what you'd expect out of a game in the second round of the playoffs.

Tim Simon
