With Republicans, Tom DeLay has not been kicked off the team. He is still on the team and is still working and helping.

Louie Gohmert

It doesn't matter who we play now, ... we got the confidence. I think this woke our team up, to flip a game like that.

Ramon Hernandez

It's going to hurt cheerleading. The best analogy I can make is that this is like taking the 3-point line away from the basketball team. ... We all want it to be as safe as possible, but with as few limits as possible.

Jennifer Graeff

We are basically a senior-experienced team. I was real happy with the way the kids kept their composure in a tough road game.

Ken Fritchman

Silverado was the only team that really spanked us, ... I thought we should have beaten Hurricane.

Jill Harris

We've had a lot of close games. We're playing as a team and it's coming at the right time.

Orlando Mccoy

Representing Team SA at the Commonwealth Games creates the opportunity for athletes to establish themselves as household names and role models to the communities back home, and serve as an inspiration to the youth, who will strive to follow in their footsteps.

Moss Mashishi

We could've put it away, but they're a good team. I mean, they fight. They're not going to give up their home court.

Doug Greseth

If I had done my job better of preparing these guys, we would have done better. But (Freedom's) soccer, well, wasn't really soccer. They had to rely on free kicks and throw-ins. And for us to lose to a team that plays that type of soccer is very disappointing.

Mark Pearson

This was a big win for us. Now we play ... Flandreau, and they're an awfully great basketball team who's on a heck of a streak over there.

Bill Vincent

It's a long ways back on straight ice if the other team gets deuce early on you. When you've got hammer, you want to hold them to one. Then you might have a chance.

Shannon Kleibrink

I knew I had to come out big for my team. When I hit those first two, I knew I was going to be shooting well.

Tracy Palmer

They're just a very talented team, and they play so well together. They're such a classy crew, and I wish them all the luck in the state tournament.

Brian Ricci

It was a really fast paced game against the best team in the conference. I thought we played with them for the most part.

Joe Carlson

Some of the older guys who don't want to (or can't) play anymore, become team managers. Anyone can join. We celebrate fun and fellowship.

Jim Craig

It's been a long time since (P-W) has been in our region. Back then only one team got out so there was a lot of pressure. With the regional this year, you don't want to close your eyes at all because I'm not real sure what some of these schools bring.

Deb Gaines

He leads by example. He's a very good passer. He sees a pass ahead. That's very rare for a high school player. He could easily average 25 points per game, but he knows it wouldn't make the team better. He has a great feel for the game.

Speedy Morris

This wasn't one of our better efforts and you can't afford to come out with less than your best effort against a team like H-F.

Mike Angel

It's a little team. Here, everyone's interested in baseball and American football and many people didn't even know that a soccer match was being played today. So it's easy for them, because they aren't playing under any pressure. My mother, my grandmother or my great grandmother could play in a team like that.

Ricardo La Volpe

He does a good job of making the big saves when we need them. If the other team is starting to push and gain momentum, that's when he's able to step up and make saves for us.

John Danby

We have the strongest team but sometimes things just don't line up.

Kyle Nissen

We are going to be a very challenging team to beat this year. We practice hard and play hard.

Juliet Garlow

They have nothing to lose. It's scary to play a team that has nothing to lose.

Danny Irmen

We're very much a team and that's how we won the state championship last year. If these guys improve at all we're going to be in good shape.

Rich Bruneau

You can't play defense like we played and win. Everybody made mistakes and you can't do that, especially against a good team.

Roger Jackson

We went into this meet missing five girls due to illness or injury. We didn't know really how we would handle this. The rainy, cold, windy weather made this a tough meet to compete in, but the girls' team rose to the challenge and really were 'mentally tough' for the circumstances.

Dave Randgaard

I'm very confident about the way my team played all year. I knew we could do this.

Doug Haynes

Our fitness level is higher than last year's team. We now have the ability to play strong the whole game and have the attitude that, even if we are down a few goals, we can still remain positive.

Ronnie Wall

I'm pretty sure a lot of people look at Boise State winning this game, ... Everyone is looking at the type of team they have and looking at the type of team they think we have.

Gerald Anderson

This year, it's a different team. We're definitely better than the last time we played there.

Dustin Villepigue

He didn't even have his good stuff today. Tonight felt like we were a second-tier team.

Marlon Byrd

Our bars were strong as a team. Our floor cranked. They showed what they can do. They looked like they were having fun. That smile is worth five-tenths, you know.

Gail Maundrell

It's pretty neat, especially with our team doing as well as we are in this tournament. It means a lot with our team doing as well as it is, but I don't think we would be doing as well as we are if it wasn't for our coaches.

Abbie Rush

We just told ourselves that we're a good team and we've got to come out like we're a good team. We were trying to stay focused after the two losses we had, and I think we did.

Nicolle Rubino

You don't want to beat yourself. We're a young team. But we're a team with a lot of potential. I've seen it. I think the girls see. We just have to believe it.

Roosevelt Newell

He bought a house right across the corner from me (in New Jersey). He was just a great man. He's the one that drafted me. He gave me an opportunity. And after he sold the team, we became even better friends. It's a tough day.

Greg Maddux

It's not easy. They have to know that you have to keep working and nothing is going to be given to them. The teams they are with aren't going to care that they are making the transition. The team wants to see results. If you're not good enough or if you're not coming along, they get someone else.

Wesley Duke

When I hit it, I pretty much knew it was gone. It felt really, really good. It was right down the middle and I just swung. I knew what I had to do for my team.

Heather Doiron

After the chairman, at least in my opinion, Don has had a greater impact on the Fed's monetary policy process than any other single person, ... He was very close to the chairman, and they discussed issues frequently. He and this chairman were really a team.

Robert Parry

I'm totally speechless. We didn't play very well at times, but when it came down to crucial moments when we had to execute, we did. Just a great team effort.

Dell Leonard

This was a match against a team that has a chance to go to the Final Four. They have all the pieces and are the real deal. They might be a top-five team right now. We got beat by a better team today, but to come out of this tournament 2-1 - we're a much better team now than we were.

Mary Wise

I wanted to be there, on that podium. All year long, I've worked for that. You try not to think about it and play a team game, but it was a goal.

Ted Fabian

They were experiencing what a lot of professional sports teams are experiencing today, and that is basically how to manage, store, search and retrieve numerous amounts of team information that they have collected over the years.

John Downs

It makes a big difference when you don't have all your big guns in there. Anything can happen, but picking up those bonus points, that's a huge lift for your team and definitely got our guys fired up.

Joe Russell

He runs our team and controls things very well. He gets better and better every week. He works hard and he's one of those kids that right after a game wants to know how many turnovers he had.

Ben Borries

It doesn't make a huge impact on the decision. It's nice to know who you are playing with and what kind of team you will have.

Alex Stepheson

We are a well-rounded team. We don't rely on one girl. The kids did everything we asked of them in the week of practice. They worked it to perfection.

John Hritz

Right now I'm doing everything I can to make this team.

Howard Jackson

I would rather be in the position we are in than that of any other team. I'm excited to see how we attack things these last two weeks.

Chris Roche

It was real frustrating seeing my team get beat and me not being on the court with them. It was a lot of motivation.

Clark Williams

I really want to build a program for the community and Madison. As it grows, I hope to add a men?s and a mixed team as well.

Jamie Williams

Boise is loaded. They are clearly the team to beat. Their top five is clearly as good as I've seen since I had that top five I had at Meridian. It's going to take something to good to beat them.

Tracy Harris

Our new coaching staff has adopted a 'hands-on' approach to monitoring study halls as well as setting the expectations for class attendance and performance. We have seen a remarkable improvement in the academic performance of the individual team members, but know that this is a ... responsibility that requires continuing attention.

Terry Holland

I am thrilled to be part of a program with such potential for success ... There is a very talented and tight-knit group of gymnasts here and I'm excited about the opportunity to help strengthen this team into a national-level competitor.

Jay Campbell

This capable team will be entrusted with preparing the defense case when the trial begins and disputing its legality and procedures that deny the President justice.

Abdel Haq Alani

Our defense was just fantastic as it has been all year. It has been the backbone of our team all year.

Al Guthman

It's not the best thing, having a driver who is already committed to another team. I know Fernando, he's a very professional and very nice guy, but its not the same as having a driver whose committed to you for the next two or three years.

Mike Gascoyne

This tournament will be a really good test for us. I know we have the talent on this team to do something special. Many feel this can be one of our best teams we've had around here.

Randy Halcomb

The whole team's been getting the ball to her. I think it's a whole team thing the past two games, not just a Hannah Harvey thing.

Stephanie Johnson

I was taken off-guard by our start. I thought our team was prepared mentally and emotionally. As much as they spread the field, there's a lot of running room. Even if you play perfectly.

Steve Roberts

You can't do that. We're a veteran team.

Colin Falls

The more bodies in a wrestling room, the better a team is. It raises the level of competition.

Mike Radke

I told the girls that they needed to come out and set the tone right away. They did a good job both offensively and defensively and really moved the ball well. We are not a one-dimensional team that relies on one person.

Kent Johnson

We were very good defensively. We made really good decisions with the puck to make them not have too many odd-man rushes, and Neville made some key saves, so I would say it was a team shutout. We protected the net really well.

Mark Mazzoleni

I told the kids that they wouldn't beat them by being the better offensive team but by being the better defensive team.

Rick Hauser

It is the supporters who pay their hard-earned money for season tickets and who want a seat every week to see the team in action so we would obviously consult with them on this matter should it ever arise.

David Southern

Sometimes we gamble a little bit too much on defense. Sometimes it pays off. Sometimes it hurts our defense, and the other team can make a play. We didn't have to worry about that (Thursday).

Dominic Crayton

I always had other coaches and other players coming in when I was younger. So I just feel it's something that you do. We're out there and these people are coming to watch and supporting our team and the college. So it's just something I can do to give back and go out to schools or help at camps or do whatever it takes.

Amanda Weber

We blew that game, there's no other way to put that. I think they're a better team now and we're a better team, so it's going to be fun to see what happens.

Josh Chavez

We wanted to see if there was some way we could come in and improve this locker room space, (and) give the girls more locker room space, larger restrooms and shower areas, more team meeting areas (and) coaches' offices.

John Netwal

There's a big difference between a football program and a football team. When you get to (A.L. Brown's) level, you've got a good football program.

Glen Cook

I enjoy these kind of games, personally, although they come with more anxiety and they are more nerve-wracking. Winning like this makes you grow as a team. You get in tight situations, you realize what needs to be done, and you do it.

Bill Bakamus

Whenever we needed something Antonio came up big. He really stepped up and picked up the team tonight.

Jeremy Kendle

He didn't break a team rule; he just didn't fulfill a team requirement.

Charles Howard

Clearly we are disappointed with our performance. The team did a great job once again, and third and fourth is a credible result but not what we came here for. The handicap and performance breaks given to teams need to be re-adjusted, this is clear and is acknowledged by everyone.

George Howard

Union County is a physical team. They put a lot of pressure on our guards. They're a scary team. They pushed us around a little bit last time, so we need to get off to a good start. That's going to be key.

Al Carter

It's just a lackadaisical mentality -- coming out and not being solid on the offensive end and defensively not digging down and making stops. We let a team we should have beaten handily stay close with us.

Sean Kline

We're better than we've been since I've been here, but we're also more disappointed, because we have the talent to be over .500. You just have to stick with it and fight through it. Who knows how good this team can be or where we'll finish up?

Mike Dunleavy

It's good the team is back again. You can never have too much hockey.

Jason Clarke

On paper, they were going to win -- and they won. They're a great team.

Melissa York

I am happy with this team. They really are a great group of kids. They are a lot of fun to just be around and to coach. I am not sure what our team batting average is, but I know they are the type of guys that have one of the higher grade-point-averages.

Dave Leo

This can be a Sweet 16 team. We're going to be really good in February. We're just scratching the surface right now.

Tom Penders

People are doubting us, but we're the best team in college football. We know it right now and everybody else is going to know it by the end of the season.

Quadtrine Hill

The rule of the tournament allows only a maximum of four players from the senior (national) team.

Tom Tikolo

They ran hard all summer, went to camp and have come into the season in better shape than any team I've seen. I can't wait for our first meet.

Neil Levine

We had to get the guys back focused, and get them excited about the game, and let them know it's still an opportunity. It's only 13 points. It's two scores. I mean, we've been a second-half football team all year, that's kind of our M.O. (modus operandi), so we kind of hung our hat on that, and got the guys fired up.

Otis Covington

Getting to the playoffs is tough. The sections are more balanced and it's getting harder and harder to make the playoffs. Any team that makes the playoffs has to be pretty good and they're all battle-tested to come through their sections.

Gene Brisbane

I thought we had a full team effort today, everybody played except for two of our goalkeepers. San Jose was very organized and kept numbers back. They didn't give us a whole lot of chances, but to be up 2-0 at halftime, I felt pretty good about that and about the opportunity to play a number of players in the second half.

Jerry Smith

It's crazy. I went from feeling like I was going to check into the hospital four days ago to being one of the healthiest guys on the team.

Marty Reasoner

She's been the foundation. She brings a ton of leadership to the team. I'm so fortunate to have her.

Pauline Hazan

Coach Weis has brought a confidence to this team that's just kind of bled through the team. It's kind of something we're trying to feed off of. ... He's brought a lot of things, but I think the mentality he's brought has just been probably the key part.

Jeff Samardzija

After last week, we challenged the kids to play four quarters of football. I like the way the team responded.

Tim Bennett

It's always nice going into a game knowing you've got (to defend) one of the better players on the team. It gets you a little extra motivated before the game, definitely.

Jason Chappell

Our team is strong again this year. We can control the midfield, defense is in good shape and we can score. Our style is aggressive with focus on passing and putting the ball in the net.

John Devries

I thought both guys did a great job of stepping up when the team needed them. You couldn't have asked any more of them.

Joe Dix

I'm glad I never had to play against him. He was a son of a gun around the basket. One time I think Tim fouled out three opposing centers when we played this team from Detroit, Michigan. They were like 6-7 and 6-8, and Tim posted them up and had like 38 or 39 points against them. Amazing.

Tom Pearson

One of the big mistakes a team can make is get a one or two-goal lead and start sitting back ... while the other team has the opportunity to turn on the jets offensively and put some pucks in the net. We didn't want that.

Mike Serba

We bring leadership and we bring experience. We all have been through a lot. We've all been around the block a little bit, and I think that's important to have on a team.

John Sharper

With a fresh start, I hope it'll work out good. I know the whole Fox story and how he came over here and had a great year for them. I'm hoping that's what it'll be - fresh start, new faces, new team, new city. I'm looking forward to getting out there.

Billy Koch

This year and last year the team has really responded to her and she learned how to handle that responsibility. She's gone from shying away from that and sometimes crumbling under that pressure to learning how to deal with it and make us better for it.

Jennifer Rizzotti

We have always had a long-term commitment to China and even more so to the development of its Internet industry, We're confident that Yahoo! is putting its resources behind the right management team, which operates according to similar values as we do, and shares the same vision for providing the most essential and relevant services to consumers and businesses.

Jerry Yang

Coach (Jim) Mora told us he didn't know we are. He was right. It was not a representative effort of what we pride ourselves in as a team.

Patrick Kerney

I'm really excited about her potential. She has begun the season by posting some very good early-season times. Jenna is very crucial to the success of the team. I expect her to be a top athlete in (Division III) this season.

Dean Tower

The team is continuing to push the stadium forward.

Sam Singer

This is the best offensive team we'll see for awhile, maybe all year, ... I think they're going to be in the hunt for the 5A title before it's all said and done with.

Denton Fox

It was just a great team effort, ... Every guy was fighting to the death.

Mark Manning

Stacey Nelson has definitely stepped up, and she's proven a lot in these past couple games, especially with her big win against Michigan. Stacey Stevens has come out and thrown the ball a lot better and will make a big impression for our team and against our opponent in the SEC.

Kristen Butler

A team's a team, they play basketball, they bust their butts playing basketball everyday. But so do we.

Mersad Terzic

I tried to take advantage of that opportunity and get it in the back of the net. I hadn't scored in a couple of games, so it felt good to score that one to help my team win. Hopefully, it will motivate me to keep playing hard.

Sel Kuralay

It's unreal. In a couple days it's really going to sink in that we did it, we're the best team in the nation.

Tonton Balenga

I was so proud of the kids just for doing it. They just worked together so well as a team.

Kathy Lemay

They are a dynamite team. They obviously have great guards and they are very interchangeable.

Mark Gedeon

They've got a real good athletic team, they are well coached, Kelley Hall does a good job, he's been in this business for a long time.

Rick Insell

He brings all the intangibles that we aspire for in our players. He is a winner and served as captain of his club team that captured a national championship. He was the glue that held everything together. He has a dynamic personality that will improve the competitive drive on our entire team.

Jay Vidovich

J.P.'s double was a big lift for our team. We have been struggling to hold onto victories. It felt good not to give one away.

Brian Diatte

The whole team came out with a bunch of intensity and I just came out hot. When you're hot, your team gets you the ball.

Meredith Levison

Kyle was hurt for most of the season, but he and guys like Dan, Andrew and Mike were all about the team. They were all model citizens, the kind of kids you like to be associated with.

John Martino

This team has played the highest level for an entire year of any other team I have ever had. And that's a testament to the kids I have here. That bodes well for next year.

Rod Wood

Taylor's lawyers say they are still assembling his defense team, and they are not qualified to say whether he can appear.

Desiree Leppens

It was a team effort tonight. And that's important. They listened, they played defense, got some good stops, and we had some good runs.

John Cherne

He was pressing because our team was pressing.

Bill Howard

I was disappointed in how we played not how we lost because Arizona's a great team, ... I thought we might be nervous and then Arizona's pressure set the tone early. Then we dug ourselves another hole we couldn't climb out of.

Bill Self

They are a five seed and we are a 12 and we had to play on their home floor and that's always tough in sectionals. They are a very athletic team, a very veteran team that starts five seniors. They are very unselfish and they rebound extremely well.

Lou Judson

The biggest thing is 'thank you' to everybody in the county. The general public has been very supportive. Team work, that's been the key to the whole thing.

James Little

Now you have an Iraq war that Americans are turning against, and you have people saying it's all a Jewish conspiracy. But look at President Clinton's team: You had many Jews who aggressively pushed for peace in the Middle East. But these same critics don't see this as part of the same conspiracy.

Jack Rosen

It's something we stress all the time. We work on different aspects of defense, especially team defense, where we help each other. The girls know they have to play physical and they need to communicate. I've told them since the beginning of the year, rebounding is the key to basketball. They're playing great defense right now.

Russ Tietjen

When you're a team like ours that has to build, the one thing you need is stability. You need that with your front office, your manager, your scouts for good things to happen.

Doug Melvin

I don't think there's any team right now that can overcome our defensive line.

Anthony Saunders

I knew I wanted to play badly, but I had to look at the team goal, ... If I tried to play and hurt myself worse, the question was what would happen this upcoming season?

Dexter Jackson

The critical factor for this team is they have to remain disciplined and focused. I think that's what kept them from the playoffs last year and the year before.

Saundra Hess

The team set itself up for a great training trip, and when it was over, it showed through the win against Lafayette and the best times that came up left and right. We're in position to have a great taper.

James Silas

I think you have to play like that against a team like that. They are a physical team, and you have to rise to the occasion. Coach has been harping on it all year that when we compete and play physical, that's when we're productive. That's just the way we have to play to be a good team.

David Carpentier

We remember that we were one point away last year and that's added fuel. This is a whole new season, but we should be a strong team outdoors.

Deb Vercauteren

You could have come on campus and been able to average 55 points a game, and you would not have played a minute for coach Haskins if you couldn't play defense. I think that was part of our edge against Kentucky. ... We only had a couple of guys go to the NBA.. We weren't a star-oriented team but rather won ... because we played as a team.

Harry Flournoy

Any time you give up shorthanded goals, it sucks the air right out of you, ... You're setting up the power play and then the other team comes back and scores on you, that's tough for any team.

Dale Hunter

We definitely feel like we have more experience than any other team. We have veterans that have been down there. We've experienced the atmosphere and I really believe that's going to help us.

Shenise Johnson

We knew they were going to be a good team that was going to shoot the ball a lot. We had a good game plan, our defense played better than it did a week before (in a 16-3 loss to then No. 6 Cornell) and our offense moved the ball.

Kevin Mckeown

We had some people in the wrong spot at the wrong time. We knew Mayo was going to be the toughest team we've played so far.

John Cassellius

For us it is not a surprise that Jiri is not on our team. We still have a strong team, we play at home. Nevertheless, the Germans are little bit the favorites and it will be difficult for us to beat them.

Cyril Suk

Firestone is a great team. They deserve to be 20-1 and ranked where they are. They would win in pretty much any league.

Mark Loomis

She's doing quite well with the team. She really beefs up our defensive line.

Beth Mccann

We've been motivated this year. Everybody on our team expects to be good. Everybody expects to win every time we play. It won't be that hard to calm down and let everything work. We'll play until the final second.

Phillip Adams

We have great team chemistry. Our seven seniors have done a great job all year long. We're all 23. We're all older guys. There's nothing to fear.

Adrian Tigert

We're extremely proud of the results that our team was able to deliver.

Gene Stahl

Even though they are the bottom of the lineup, I believe in every single one of them. That's what is great about this team is they all can hit. Our 7-8-9 really came through for us.

Stephanie Carroll

To have CSC here is very important because we have an American sponsor, ... This team has a certain image, and it's important to show it over here (in the United States). ... And bringing Ivan here really brings out our image. He's the main man here in the race.

Bjarne Riis

It was a great game that could have gone either way and we were very fortunate to win. Manasquan is a great team that beat us at our place. The girls played their hearts out.

George Sourlis

If he can get in the Spain team, as he should be, he could be the main player in the World Cup. He's that good.

Paul Merson

[The T-Mobile team has signed Andr Greipel to its roster for next season, on a one year basis. The 23 year-old sprinter, who hails from Jan Ullrich's hometown of Rostock, rode for Team Wiesenhof this year.] Andr is a young rider with massive potential, ... He has shown that already on a number of occasions this year. We are hoping that, with us, he can continue to develop and evolve as a sprinter.

Olaf Ludwig

Their whole team works hard, which is tough because you can't take a shift off.

Riley Nelson

She's been a tremendous champion through the years. She's been a great ambassador to the sport. ... The bottom line is to pick the best team possible for the Olympic Games.

David Raith

I think we have a more balanced attack than anything else. There will be days when we need to out slug someone, and there will be days we'll do with our pitching. The team is just so balanced.

Tim Sinicki

It will be tough swimming at the 3A level. We can finish high, but it's tough going at that level. We are young, so we are shooting at top three in the district. This is our best team yet and it's going to get better. We are young and I expect good things.

Tara O'shea

We read every newspaper article printed on that team. We knew they were a second-half club, so at no point in the first half did we think the game was over.

Daquan Gibson

As a coach, you have an idea of how you want your team to play. I think we've finally gotten to that point. It was a matter of getting to know each other, finding a whole new chemistry and mending some things.

Mike Freitag

He may ultimately be the safest pick in the draft. This guy's a football player. I suspect he'll go very early, and the team that gets him will be fortunate.

Phil Savage

Overall it was solid team performance. We'd worked hard all season on trying to get positive goal scoring opportunities and we got some today.

Neil Sedgwick

The same thing always happens in these situations and everyone starts suspecting us. It doesn't make sense to think we're going to hand them the game when a lot of us are playing for a place in the World Cup team.

Cristian Gonzalez

They hit us with some big plays, and that's uncharacteristic of our team.

Dan Morgan

He has so much confidence in himself now. He understands so well what we're trying to do. It's made him a much better quarterback and made us a much better offensive team.

Gil Haskell

This is the first time the entire team has stepped up like that. That was important.

Ollie Goulston

Perry has been good to us, but East Canton will be as tough if not the toughest team we've played this year. We're going to have to play good defense and go to our strengths.

Bill Tomsich

It's only been 10 days, but it was hard watching the other night with a close game like that. You're a little bit more motivated to play against a former team and coach, so it's definitely a plus to get a playoff goal early and get the monkey off my back.

Les Borsheim

This is a cross-town rival and that is always exciting. (Jacksonville) is a good football team and another good test for us and we look forward to it.

Bob Eason

These seniors were fantastic to go from a three-win team to a 10-win team and for many that may not sound like a lot but when you are building a program, that's huge.

Tim Paddock

We have to become a better defensive rebounding team.

David Baxter

This is the proudest moment I've had with this team since we started play on Nov. 21. When the chips are down, I'm the type of person that likes to fight and challenge. I told the girls that I want someone that will fight with me. I've seen a lot of fighting in the last week.

Shirley Walker

We know no one has expected us to do what we've done. We know we're the underdogs. But I think that's why we've been playing so well. There is no pressure on our team. They're just going out and having fun and enjoying themselves.

Jen Milne

This is the outcome we were working towards. Chicago is a great city and John (Paxson) is taking the team in the right direction. I am thrilled for Tyson to begin the next chapter of his career with the Bulls.

Jeffrey Schwartz

You limit a team to one shot on goal, that's a great defensive effort. I just think everybody is playing well back there (on defense). Everybody is playing solid.

Don Trentham

It has been the experience at the CBC for deals to be concluded in Ottawa with both the federal mediators there, but also key members of the CBC management team who for the most part have not been present at the bargaining at all.

Lise Lareau

In training this week we have talked about the dropped catches, which ruined our chances. The batting of the St Catherine team... they have a good batting line-up with Tamar Lambert and others. They'll be coming gunning. They have won outright, so it should be a good match.

Delroy Morgan

I'm not expecting a miracle during the first season after a new start in 2006. But I'm confident that the new team will be successful over the long term.

Nick Heidfeld

Since becoming aware of the situation at NAU, we've spent a considerable amount of time in discussions with the University officials, outside health professionals and our own medical personnel to determine the best course of action, ... The overwhelming concern obviously was the health and well-being of our football team.

Rod Graves

I'm really proud of the way our team has played this season. They went out and did everything we have asked them to do.

Jesse Chick

What a luxury it is to have both Jesse and Scott returning. Both of these young men have proven they can handle the job and both have won big games for us. To see them work together to make each other better is part of what has made this team so close.

Dave Pietramala

Going into sectionals our whole team really has to pick it up. We have some tough competition this year. We have to have a lot of guys get into the finals and get points for our team.

Nick Twining

There's only so much you can accomplish in practice. We accomplished all that. And we made it through as a team, and still like each other.

Scott Drew

We cannot commit errors if we are going to win. With this being a one game situation, anything can happen. On any given day, we're as good as any team out there. We need to make sure that we are playing our best.

Mike Blair

At our first team meeting, he handed out binders that detailed daily workouts from the fall to the end of the season. He emphasized that this team would not be a joke and that we'd better be here to wrestle, and if not, he would find someone else to. His organization and motivation has really helped us.

Jim Crumlish

We were still trying to attack and pressure them. One goal isn't enough against a good team like that. So we never wanted to take it easy. We always try to attack and improve.

Russ Boyer

Even I had my doubts about our team at the beginning of the year, but we showed what we can do, and surprised a lot of people.

Andrew Eakle

We have our family back together now. It's just a great feeling to have him with us. This team needs Duce.

Verron Haynes

We did so good as a team. I'm so proud of all of us.

Nastia Liukin

We got beat by a better team. One that won conference last year and may be on the way to repeat.

Luis Sayavedra

It's probably one of the more athletic teams I've had in years. There's more team speed with this group. I'm expecting a lot out of them. I'm hoping we can win more than half of our matches.

Brad Keller

I told my team that it was time to start passing the ball to us instead of (Hemingway). We're a young team, however, so we're going to make some mistakes.

Pat Hewitt

Road trips in the past have been really fun. Obviously it's a stress academically, but being on a bus with these girls for hours really brings the team together.

Kristin Chaney

Just keep your man in front of you and time up the way he dribbles. You can time when he dribbles so you can punch it out, hit it. Stay close to your man so if the other team throws a lazy pass, you can step in and get it. It's all about pressure.

Brad Orr

The people that expect this run to end aren't on this team so they don't concern me. The only people who concern me are the people with the 'Gs' on the side of their heads.

Ray Gant

This man, I talked to four or five times a day. Philosophically, we knew where we wanted to go with this team. I'm going to miss those conversations. I'm going to miss his leadership; the players are going to miss his leadership.

Steve Sampson

We've got great team spirit -- we want to keep giving our all to try and win rather than sitting back and wondering what might have been.

Heath Streak

I'm extremely proud of the effort our team gave just to get here. But I wish we could've been more competitive.

Shane Childress

When I was younger, in middle school, Arizona was the team. It was 'Arizona, Arizona, Arizona.' Me and my buddies would be in the backyard pretending to be Arizona. It's going to be a fun game.

Jon Brockman

It's entirely appropriate that we get to sail Dennis Conner and Stars & Stripes on the first day...Britain, who hasn't been in the Cup for 15 years, sails against the team that hasn't missed one.

Brian Walker

Jonathan has a proven track record of driving results in this space. His innovative approach combined with the talents of the existing management team will ensure our continued success. We look forward to having him on board.

Dan Schulman

I've been seeing the ball real well and they threw a lot of fastballs so I just sat back and waited. Hitting in the middle of the lineup has been great for me and hitting a double now and then helped keep the team going.

Jake Smith

We know we're going to see this team again.

Deangelo Hall

We're delighted to be in this (the regional). We're really a year ahead of schedule, with seven sophomores on our team. If somebody back in December would have told me that we would be in the playoffs, I would have checked their forehead to see if they had a temperature.

Werner Christen

We definitely tried to guard them one on one and we weren't helping each other out as much as we need to. They're a very good offensive team and we don't want to play 'score-more' basketball, we want to win with our defense.
