I'm ecstatic for the kids. I had my seniors and my two assistants here when I got the call, and to see them get excited was great. I'll be honest, I was worried if I couldn't go because I'm kind of like their second mom. I drive the bus to Baker and get them up and set up breakfast, so I was concerned I was not going to be able to be at the motel at all.

Bart Rothenberger

When I first became coach of the program, we were looking at when these guys were going to be seniors to be doing something, whether it was in league or CIF. I just wanted them to do well, but winning the CIF title is fantastic for these guys.

Martin Coughlin

Obviously, you do remember some of those times. We've been through that before, the seniors and Coach Peck, so we know how to get through that and what we need to do so it doesn't continue.

Brittany Davis

It's good for seniors to eat fresh fruit and vegetables, ... We have a big promotion in Mason County Senior Citizen Center for seniors to eat five to seven serving of fruits and vegetables each day. That's what we try to do here each day.

Joyce Johnson

We have to find some high jumpers. We graduated two seniors who did very well.

Steve Huling

We got outplayed. Davidson played like a bunch of seniors that were very hungry to rid the memory of last year.

John Shulman

These vulnerable seniors and people with disabilities had good coverage under Medicaid. Now they are in danger of dying because they cannot get access to their medically necessary prescription drugs.

Jeanne Finberg

It is about time we did something in this city for seniors.

Bill Gibson

We've had a lot of success on this court. Our seniors really had to step up tonight against a tough opponent and they did.

Jeremy Lavoie

It is quite a thrill to watch the seniors come in and see their eyes pop open when they see all the rides and animals. They are just as thrilled as the kids when they come here and we try to make everything as exciting as we can.

Susan Goolsby

We have a saying: The way you practice is the way you play. Guys who don't play much, practice is their game. Seniors can make it real difficult if they're not playing. We've been very lucky our seniors have been able to handle that.

Tim Bankston

It was a team win. All seven seniors placed and we had a lot of kids place higher than where they were seeded. I'm very proud.

Charlie Dotson

Seniors are a great source of knowledge and wisdom, and the people I see who are happiest after their retirement are the people who stay active.

James Donovan

We only have two seniors. We're very young and inexperienced on the varsity level ... Hopefully, we can make things happen.

Frank Alfonso

We have good leadership — these guys (most notably the seniors), most of them, since they were sophomores. That's got to be a strength — that experience and their ability to be successful in their final year.

Jeff Brimhall

We owe our seniors a great deal of gratitude. They have done a great job for us and I hope that people turn out to acknowledge the careers they have had.

Dave Loos

Seniors tell us that My Medicare Matters provides the kind of assistance they need and have been requesting. They come to us, often confused about their choices for Part D coverage. Our educators are able to walk them though their options, answer their questions, and help them be prepared to make an informed choice.

Kathleen Gmeiner

We have captains, but it's more than that. These seniors have been a part of this program for four years and they'll take us to where we want to go. I rely on all six of them to do that.

Anne Horton

(Ballard) is a team that can make us better later on by playing against it. We can use this game to play with quicker, more athletic teams and I'm really proud of our seniors for challenging the other players to play hard the whole game.

Cary Thompson

Those levels haven't changed since 1990 despite the fact that rents have risen over 15 years, ... Over three years, these changes will provide $42 million in rent relief for low-and modest-income seniors.

Carole Taylor

That is a damning comment. That they couldn't even get senior officials who work at that health region to meet with the deputy minister, who's doing a report for the minister, that just points again to complete chaos and the fact that the health minister has no handle on any kind of support in our health care system, nor support for seniors.

Carole James

It's going to be a grudge match. We beat them by one earlier this year, so they'll be looking for payback. And, of course, we'd like to win our own tournament for these seniors.

John Loftin

This is a dream come true for us. Since we were freshmen, the seniors on the team have talked about getting past area. ... Our coaches have already explained to us what we have to do. We have our whole game plan set. We're ready, and we just have to play our game.

Latoya Williams

I'm happy with how the team has performed so far. Now we have some juniors who started with the program - as well as some seniors- who are our leaders.

Tom Barnes

It's one thing to do it as freshmen, it's another thing to do it last year. But to go out on top as seniors, it's the best feeling. I can't even describe it.

Kyle Dancause

A lot of times, when juniors become seniors, they get that character to them that develops. It?s just amazing seeing juniors develop into seniors, and he?s one of those kids.

Richie Anderson

We don't need as much experience race-wise because most of us are seniors.

Brian Dennis

We are going to make errors. We did the same thing two years ago when we had sophomores on the varsity, but it paid off when they became juniors and seniors.

John Parks

Our goal this year will be not to have any holes in any of the events, and with the steady guidance of the seniors and frequent contributions from the many underclassmen, hopefully all the pieces will fit into place.

Joe Cantillon

We just want to guarantee that that money is always going to be there for our seniors.

Judy Batusich

The unfair part is that juniors and seniors are not going to be grandfathered. The catalog when we entered Winthrop is our contract with the university. This is a breach of that contract.

Willie Lyles

She's been in double figures every game. She had four (points) tonight. Two years ago with these seniors, we spent the majority of preseason and even early into the year promoting defense, and it's really paid off.

Doug Griffin

It's about giving the seniors another opportunity to play. Every game could be their last. It's all about them and helping them go out in the best way possible.

Cliff Hammonds

I was actually shocked that they went down like that, week after week after week, and being that two of them were seniors, I was going to dedicate all I could do to try to help out.

April Mcclendon

To do this now, as seniors, makes it feel that much better. SPU can run off points on you so we knew we had to bring our best game and play tough defense. We've accomplished one of our goals.

Tina Donahue

As much as our performance did not meet our expectations, the seniors were still able to play their last games with some of the best friends we will have for life. There is not better way to compete with a bunch of your closest friends.

Dan Brillman

We don't have any seniors on our team this year so we are very young. But we have gotten past being a young team, and our goal is to get as many people as we can to state.

Andrew Washington

We've got three seniors. Two of them had not been out for a long time.

Walt Woodruff

The most common worry from seniors is that their medications, especially their high-cost medications, won't be covered.

Robin Faris

We said to our seniors, bad game going out, great season going out. There's a big difference there. They never gave up, they never quit. They were bound and determined to turn this program around.

Brian Cantrell

The Medicare bill signed into law by Bush has turned out to be nothing more than a massive corporate giveaway to the pharmaceutical companies, while doing little to help our state's seniors with their prescription drug bills.

Art Torres

Our seniors are all team players, so they don't really mind. Even if they didn't like it, it would be almost impossible to argue with their results.

Justin Nelson

Those seniors, Russ Beeler, Aaron Akers, Steve Cole, and Pat McDonough have set a foundation that we wanted. The freshmen, sophomores and even juniors look up to them and they now know what's expected.

Brian Blubaugh

It's very special for the seniors, but we had the freshmen cut down the nets first. We wanted to plant that seed with them that this is what we do here.

Kyle Macgillis

We don't have the depth we usually have. We have four or five good seniors, but the key is whether the younger guys can play.

Fred Ledezma

Our seniors are the ones that lead this team. Gillespie (.600) has one of the top batting averages on the team and Bird leads by example on the field.

Leslie Jones

I'm blessed to be on a team like this. Especially with the three seniors. They're great leaders. I love playing with them.

Morgan Warburton

I'm completely against diminishing senior transportation in any way, or increasing the cost. We worked hard to increase the routes and added a second bus ... It's a great benefit for our seniors and I'm completely opposed to this.

Steve Mann

We have seven seniors, and six of them play a lot. We're nine deep, so we have pretty good depth. We've had nine different guys lead us in scoring this year.

John Callaghan

I'm mad - I feel it for the seniors. This feeling, you don't want to feel like this anymore.

Ray Rice

As freshman, we were really bummed out that we couldn't win for the seniors.

Justin Krider

The new Medicare prescription drug benefit takes full effect at the end of this year, and it will provide a very valuable option to seniors, many of whom have never had such a benefit before.

Jon Kyl

We made sure we sent our seniors off with a win. It was real important to win it for them. Some of them might pursue their careers in the NFL. Some of them might not. We just wanted to get them a memory before they left the Orange Bowl.

Darnell Jenkins

We had a good season. I'm proud of the guys. They came together. We had mixtures of some solid seniors and brought some freshmen and sophomores up. We got good experience all year, and the future's very bright.

Joe Sigrist

It's a safety issue for us. Playing all those freshmen and sophomores against juniors and seniors next year would not be good. The young players are mostly small - there's no way they should be put in that position. They're just physically not ready.

Kirk Ham

They've definitely lived up to the expectations we had for them. The (seniors) have all played a major role in our success over the past three years.

David Marsh

We didn't want to lose. We wanted to win so bad for coach and the seniors.

Jake Green

They wanted this. It's been a long time coming for them. These seniors have worked their tails off. We've been to North Carolina. We've been all over the place. They've paid the price, so it's kind of nice to see them get a little bit back.

Gordon Hartwell

We're calling on Representative Nussle to take the target off of Iowa's seniors, children, people with disabilities and low-income families.

Matt Russell

This is a big game for our seniors. It's the first game and you always want to start the season off with a win.

Ward Courville

We had six possessions in the second half, but we couldn't get any points. Last year, we had so many seniors who had played as juniors. This time we only have six kids who played last year. As coaches we have to keep that in mind and be happy with seeing improvement each game.

Jim Ewan

We knew coming into (the season) we had a chance. The kids really turned it on in January and we didn't have the individualism or the selfishness. We got great leadership from our seniors.

Brandon Day

I'm really sick of the feeling of going to state and losing; it's a really bad feeling. We haven't lost much here, but all the seniors have losses. We know the feeling of losing, and that will really help at state. It will really motivate us a lot.

Ashley Bell

I just want to thank coach Meyer for coming in here and giving the seniors a chance to get a bowl win.

Dallas Baker

We are a better team when I am on the floor. The seniors need me out there. Hassan needs me out there to help him out. I do a good job as far as disrupting things. We are a better team when I am out there, and I think everybody can see that.

Chris Rodgers

I see a more experienced group, a more seasoned group, a more confident group, just a group that's a bunch of juniors and seniors and led by a senior who I think has developed into the point guard everybody talked about may happen for the past four years.

Greg Gard

We lost a lot of seniors. We're hoping a lot of the younger guys will gel together.

Rich Schneider

This is a showcase. Kids train all year to come here and compete. The meet gets washed, and that's the last chance many of them will have to come here. Seniors could have (had) a breakout run here.

Dan Green

For the seniors, this is an important part of their lives. We need to get ready to beat Santa Cruz. I don't want this to be a distraction. I don't tackle anyone. I don't run, throw or block.

Craig Johnston

There's no excuse. We went out there and gave it our all. We did what we could. It's disappointing for us as seniors. We wanted our fourth (DSL title) but we won three, that's history for our school. We're happy and we're going to try hard for CIF.

Lyndi Lively

Unlike the Internet, this system is easy to use. It just involves a regular telephone. That's why we've seen many seniors signing up.

Daniel Shifrin

The seniors have been such big influences for us all year, just showing the Penn State way. I guess it's kind of our night to make it their night.

Luke Delorenzo

Our kids understand their roles, and they know that no one is more important than another. Plus, our seniors have a great work ethic. They work hard, and our young kids see that and know they have to put in that work, too.

Rick Schwiebert

It's hard to pick out. We have just a real solid group of juniors and seniors.

Danny Dunaway

When guys get to be seniors, they know it's time to step up, ... He has practiced hard. Sometimes he wasn't the most consistent pass catcher, but he's got a little confidence and he's really going to play a bunch.

Louisiana Tech

Once again, we got lackadaisical and let them back in it. It's something we've gotta work on. We came in at halftime, us seniors, and said we didn't want this to be our last game. We came out in the third quarter and played like that.

Derek Tapscott

It's definitely a rebuilding year. But next year we will have three seniors and two juniors.

Daniel Gonzalez

President Bush believes that the promise of Social Security fulfilled over the last 70 years ought to be a promise we keep for future generations. Scoring political points by shirking responsibility for tomorrow's seniors is not a birthday party Americans can afford to attend.

Tracey Schmitt

I have great group of four seniors who have made it easy for me to implement what we want to do. Hopefully, (their attitude) has filtered down into the junior and sophomore classes. Every day they bring it in practice and that only makes my job easier.

Brent Cahill

We also have a solid group of seniors who have played together for at least five or six years.

Ben Levine

Last year we had 50 local sponsors who awarded 106 scholarships to 49 of our seniors.

Faith Nicole

We must be good stewards for our children's education and for our seniors' quality of life.

Jim Gibson

Michael has grown a lot. He's 6 feet 2 and he's also a lefty so that helps him out. Our other seniors are solid and I'm excited about the way a couple of our sophomores (McLean and Hitchcock) are coming along.

Andy Brunner

It might be just one of those things that seniors have thought about, but just need the extra push. But it is so worthwhile; you get more than you give.

Lynette Eddy

Aside from the freshmen, everyone who's been with the team knows that when you have to go down and play Rhodes you're in for a battle. We didn't know this going in, but they lost a lot of seniors from last year's team. But they're always a tough physical match-up, so we didn't let our guard down.

Sam Jacobs

Right now, we're 0-0 again. For us seniors, this better be our last loss.

Jonathan Mitchell

We would be the first group of seniors to have two championships. It's one of the biggest thrills I'll ever get.

Holly Paddock

This brings the end to an era, with our seniors, it's also my son's last game.

Ray Sims

We did miss Danny in the second half. He's a very good player, and they're big shoes to fill, but some of the seniors stepped up.

Rashad Baker

Our seniors, Sean and Brigitta, really put in the extra effort for this team to win tonight.

Gary Lindgren

Because they started playing as freshmen together and were in the lineup a lot since freshman [year], they've been seniors for a long time.

Jim Kubinski

Ryan and Greg are giving us great senior leadership on a young team. This team is learning and understanding how to play hard all game long. That is coming from the seniors. Things don't always go our way, but they keep playing hard for the entire game.

Tom Pardalis

We give three $150 scholarships to Mohawk High School seniors at our June meeting each year, ... This is our way to give back to the community.

Linda Warren

Even though we lost seven seniors that accounted for much of our points, we have some very talented seniors and even deeper talent in an experienced group of juniors.

Rob Braun

Most of our top scorers are underclassmen, four sophomores and two juniors. Our top seniors are mostly defensemen.

Steve Ivcic

Seniors use health services at a significantly greater rate than the rest of the population, so they will be disproportionately affected by a shortage.

Larry Matheis

Seniors were begging for help. We promised tax assistance in each of our campaigns. We must honor that promise.

John Romano

It's definitely something. We've been with the same 60 seniors since sixth grade. To have a social event outside of our small community is nice.

Roland Shaw

It's nice having the [Williamstown Elementary School] across the street. [The seniors] love being with the kids.

Brian O'grady

We like it when the older ones help the young ones. It's a learning process when they are freshman. But the juniors and seniors all had to go through it, and they pass it down.

Jerome Groover

Part of the problem is that they are trying to pitch something to seniors before they need it. They are kind of putting the cart before the horse. To the extent that people don't know what [the drug benefit] is, they are not going to want to bother with this extra help.

David Lipschutz

We lost five seniors, and three of them were starters. I've tried really hard not to compare this team to that one.

Amy Powell

We decided to go with New Horizons because it's designed to give seniors the opportunity to perform music.

Jean Butler

More than one -- five or six of them --said, 'Coach, we can get it.' And they were the older kids, ... They were the seniors that wanted to do it, so I said, 'Yes, let's do it.' .

John Benedetto

It got down to the seniors again. They came out with a lot of composure.

Harry Nissen

We have a veteran team, and that's important. We have nine seniors and eight juniors.

John Groennert

It came down to our seniors. They gave us the leadership and intensity.

Julie Mattson

This was for the seniors. This was our first district title and it feels awesome.

Angie Proper

I've been working here for seven years and this is my first Senior Olympics. I just thought of it as a way to get more seniors up and involved.

Linda Walker

Most of the seniors that are starting have been starting since they were sophomores.

Mark Lasley

They've got 14 seniors. They're enormous. They have three lineman who are well over 300 pounds and they have some quick secondary people.

Mark Elston

The only two I've got this year that saw any extensive playing time last year are seniors Matt Fessenden (midfield) and Adrian Delgado (forward).

Bryan Atchley

Now, we've got a good group of juniors and seniors, and they seem to be committed to doing the right thing.

Andrew Pearson

I'm really excited for the seniors. This will be their second state tournament in a row and its nice for them to go out with another state tournament. And it's good to get state experience for our younger guys coming up. Hopefully this can carry over for them.

Jack Bagley

They've been here since they were freshmen, and I know they want to go to postseason. They've been part of the major progression of the program. They were really the pioneers. Now they're seniors and they want to get to the next step.

Kathy Dais

Joel played with a lot of heart, tonight. He didn't score when we came over here last time. He really got after it and we have to have that out of our seniors.

Robert Hammonds

This team didn't have any seniors. Some of the guys left the program or were asked to leave who were counted on to help.

Dave Heeke

I kind of forgot about the sickness and had a second wind almost. I think I had to pull it out for the seniors, especially at home.

Travis Rosenkranz

It was such a great game for our team and for our fans. We have two seniors, and both of them played really hard. This will do a lot for our program.

Tim Goers

People plan their vacation around it. Seniors come from all over the state. They love to see the students and talk to them.

Nancy Young

Felicia brings different things to us. She is quick and athletic. She is up and down, but with more experience (that will change). She is very fortunate to have three seniors helping her.

Mary Klinger

The entire team is interested in helping her get 1,000. The seniors are a great group of kids to have. They have been willing to accept different roles at different points in their careers.

Pat Kiley

This is the last season for the seniors and we just want to enjoy it. We only have a couple games left of high school basketball so we want to make the most of it.

Greg Burgers

These fares are an example of EL AL?s continued dedication to offering the best value for travel from the U.S.A. to Israel for all passengers, including families and seniors. Such affordable fares allow more people from the U.S. the ability to plan a memorable trip to Israel.

Michael Mayer

This was a great group of girls and we will really miss our seven seniors.

Cathy Ralston

It's not just an outstanding job market for seniors. Increasingly, an internship or summer job results in full-time employment when the student graduates.

Kevin Hewerdine

You have to give coach Sherman and their seniors credit. A couple of their veterans stepped up when they had to and that's what you have to do in these kinds of games.

Derek Wright

We have a lot of young guys who haven't jelled yet. It's tough when you lose (last year's seniors), but you have to learn to play without them.

Wade Henderson

She's been here the last two years. For some of the seniors who played as freshmen, this would be their fourth coach in four years.

Linda Jones

This is all part of the changing process since John Mack came back. Some of the seniors decided it's one change too many.

Jason Kennedy

We've done a good job of improving consistently all the way from the freshmen to the seniors. The coaches do not let us get caught up in winning.

Levon Kendall

This is the way we wanted to end the huge rivalry. We have a huge home advantage and that means a lot to the seniors. We want to go out on top and really lead the younger girls.

Lauren Wenger

I only had three that played there last year. The three seniors better remember what happened.

Lori Daniel

In the second half, we had some good drives, but penalties hurt us. Those got us off our play-call scripts. But we're still pretty young. We only have two seniors on the team. We just have to execute, block and tackle better.

Wade Cook

We're going to the South side on Tuesday. Our seniors have never won down there.

Gary Sharpe

This has created a vehicle for seniors to augment their retirement, get equity out of the home and use it to pay for everyday needs.

Darryl Hicks

If there are any kids that have earned a win like this, it's these six seniors that deserve it. They've been beat around by teams, but now they set a record for wins and have the first state win.

Bobby Ervin

It's a really big win for the seniors. Our last game ever against Salisbury was a victory.

Ben Cox

We weren't just playing for this year's team, we were playing for those seniors all last year's team, too. I think that helped motivate the kids a little bit.

Stan Eagleson

We're competing now. (The seniors) are trying to set the bar as high as we can.

Robert Dutton

Once we beat Rocky it became set in our minds that we can do this. We're really confident. We're a senior-led team, and even our juniors play and act like seniors.

Laura Haugen

Nobody can take away what our class was able to accomplish. I don't think there will ever be a group of seniors like this class. We won 85 games in a row. I don't think we would have ever done that.

Hosea Berkley

These kids need confidence. The seniors have been through the worst.

Todd Hawkins

I think we get scared a little bit about how they are juniors and seniors sometimes. And we're short, but it doesn't really matter to us anymore - it's something that we got used to. Now that we are on the court with them and have played them, I think we were scared before but we're not anymore.

Matraisa Beecraft

You do this stuff in your own life and you figure out what kind of difference it makes. It's like the old cliche: Think globally, act locally. I try to leave the classroom with kids (or seniors) feeling they have the power to make a difference.

Jennie Rylee

Many seniors are confused and concerned, and in Iowa the Democrats' strategy is to tap into that to nullify some perceived advantages Republicans have had with seniors over the past couple of elections. The senior population is a significant and critical demographic here in a state that is essentially 50-50.

David Redlawsk

It's tough because these seniors won't ever play together again. We just couldn't get it done today.

Matt Skonicki

He's a senior -- you expect your seniors to rise to the occasion when asked to do something. That's the job of the seniors and he came through for us.

Lem Elway

Seniors and the disabled will soon have new health coverage options now that the Governor has signed SB 375 into law.

Jackie Speier

In those days, there were a lot of seniors put into institutions who didn't need to be institutionalized. They needed community centers.

Doug Sauer

I expected more people to try out, but I think since seniors couldn't play, it lowered the number.

Ryan Kaufman

You have a lot of seniors in this community. We can't afford this increase. Young people here can't even afford it and they work two to three jobs.

Doreen Guerin

We have eight seniors, and seven of them have played through some lean years. They're a feisty bunch and they want to win.

Ralph Russo

I told the seniors after the third game, 'This is what you've been busting your butts since June 1, for this match. And they responded.

Tr Harlan

We lost some good seniors, but I expect to get better and better as the season progresses. Guys will start to develop a better understanding of the game. We are going to have some tough tests.

Corey Andres

Jon and Frank are so versatile. They give us flexibility while the rest of the seniors are specialists.

Jim Caliendo

Harkin's good with organized labor, teachers, seniors, and environmentalists. And when he endorses, he doesn't just endorse, he actively works for you.

Steve Hildebrand

I don't think a lot of people expected us to have the kind of season we've had. For this young group to grow up as quickly as they have says a lot for them as well as the seniors and juniors who have helped pull them along all season.

Brian Idalski

The seniors set the bar high and gave us something to measure ourselves against. They really came together as a team and showed us-whether we're behind or ahead-we can always win the games if we really put our minds to it and try.

Michael Williams

The seniors did a great job. We love them to death, and we want to get a ring for them. It was all about them tonight.

Andre Muse

I let them know that this is a totally different ballgame because the stakes are much, much higher. There are seniors on both teams who don't want their seasons to end, so they are going to play with a lot of heart.

Christina Bradford

We have a young team this year and we're playing a difficult schedule. So I would say that I'm probably drawing from it even now, the things you have to do with a young team and how you have to handle them. That was an experience with that very young Duke team. As seniors, they made that first Final Four and the rest is history from there.

Mike Dement

We rely on the whole team to do well. We have a lot of returning seniors and players on this team, who know they can win.

Amy Lesnever

It would have been nice to keep that streak, but the important thing for Dani and I was our streak of qualifying for district on all our teams. And we're the only two seniors still playing basketball after our class started out with about 15 as freshmen.

Chelsey Huffman

The purpose of the program is to bring education, information, entertainment, physical fitness and wellness to seniors.

Judy Nation

One thing we've been talking about all year is having no regrets. The seniors, this is our last chance, and we don't want to leave anything to chance and walk out of a gym knowing we could have done this or could have done that. We just keep fighting and keep getting better.

Kevin Bettencourt

(The seniors) each got us six points; a forfeit's six points for the team. I just wish they could have wrestled on Senior Day.

Bo Roundy

This group of seniors, we've been fielding questions all week about how are we emotionally going to get up for the game when it doesn't really mean anything. We found that to be a slap in the face. We didn't want to be a senior class that contributed to a national championship and lost our last two games.

Craig Krenzel

We only had the two seniors this year. So there have been a lot of younger girls get some good minutes this season. I think there is a lot of good basketball to come for this program.

Ronda Cox

When I look at these seniors that have been with us for four years, they've won four conference, four counties, four prep, four state championships and finished undefeated. You can't go out any better than that.

Kevin Mahoney

We had a good season. I am very proud of them, especially the three seniors.

Vicki Castino

They're very excited, very happy. They get to put a team banner in the gym. It was a big night for the seniors.

Art Munoz

It feels amazing. We've had so many good teams and we've never been able to beat them. This feels so good for us seniors because it's the last time we'll ever play them. We really came together today.

Carly Magill

These guys are a great bunch of kids who were fun to coach. I have been so lucky since I have been here to coach great kids. And our seniors have had a great run. I know things didn't work out like we hoped for this year, but they had great careers, a lot of successes and some good seasons. They can hold their heads high because they gave it everything they had.

Randy Jordan

I'm very excited about this event. This is information that seniors really need.

Julie Casey

The seniors stepped up and played really well. My juniors stepped up, too. It was a total team effort. This is a real good win for us. The guys deserve it.

Dave Hooker

It'll be different as seniors. You need to be mentally tough yourself so they can look at you for an example.

Ashley Miles

I couldn't be prouder of them. I just don't want them to relax on this. The seniors kept this team focused all year, and I don't believe the (Big Ten regular-season title) will phase them.

Carol Hutchins

I look back and our best seasons have always been when I had a good number of seniors. That's the way you want it-to have senior leadership.

Angela Moody

There is no dynasty. Each season is unique to itself because the cast of characters changes. Seniors graduate, freshmen matriculate ... dynasties occur with the same players year in and year out.

Bill Mandigo

It was very heartbreaking to say that you lost your last game, but I think for the seniors we accomplished a lot. I know what we accomplished is not going to erase this loss, but we can say we did some good things in our careers.

Demario Minter

It's a good thing to build on. Two teams in our conference went to state and we played well against them with the seniors and juniors those teams had.

Jordan Nelson

It was a must-win game for our team. We wanted Booker and the other seniors to have one more home game. I had to step up.

Travis Jackson

We've got six seniors playing a lot, so they should get the boards, they should take over in crucial times like that. University made a great run and they've got nothing to hang their head about.

Dave Driggs

We started four seniors, and they did a good job of setting the tempo. It was senior night, and they came out and played aggressively.

Paul Dretsch

The seniors worked hard all season and I appreciate what they meant to the team. They've got my thanks.

Tim Dawkins

I lived through six years of this kind of ad, saying things like seniors were going to freeze to death and school children are going to starve because Bilbray was going to cut off their funding.

Brian Bilbray

Oliver Springs starts eight seniors, and this is their year to do it. They are the one up there at the top and they are the favorites to win this after dropping down from double A.

David Treece

We may be open limited hours, we're open because of the community. We have a number of people that are calling us and supporting us, we have a number of people that are saying thank you for being open, seniors included. We're here to help the community in the best way we can.

David Sanderson

We've never been in this situation before. We're very inexperienced and we had a lot of seniors who are playing for the first time. But this is a very blue-collar team. I like this team. I love their work ethic. How good we're going to be, I don't know.

Ted Jackson

I told (the seniors) when they walked off the court (as eighth graders) that their time would come and we'd win the important one. We'll win when it means something.

Mike Gabel

Our four seniors are great. They just don't come out and play basketball. They are just great people. I appreciate all the work they've done.

Tony Weinandt

My focus as a coach is to keep my seven seniors focused.

Lula Bauer

Our current generation of seniors, it's very difficult for them to even think of paying that, especially those that don't have that kind of money. It will ultimately save them money. It will, but it's not going to be the biggest money saver I've ever seen.

Carol Maszk

She turns the cast into high-kicking seniors.

Mari Dietz

I know this is a tough loss for them (seniors), but they have done a lot for the school. They set a team-record for wins and they have nothing to hang their head about.

Carmen Hines

We're really going to be young this year. We lost eight seniors, and five of those are playing in college this year. We may take some lumps early, but we're optimistic and we've got a lot of potential.

Donnie Williams

The four seniors really organized things. I've seen it occasionally, but usually not everybody. For all seven of them to show up in great shape, that's a really big plus for us.

Kevin Allison

I'm looking for seniors to step up and lead this team. We're young and leadership is important.

Mark Mazzon

That surprises me, because we lost 13 seniors.
