No doubt — offense sells the tickets, but defense wins the championships.

Dave Thorson

We have to try and not let the little things go by. It's the little things that win games. It's the little things that often get overlooked that can add two or three more wins.

Kenny Harrison

I think the Irish coaches' preparation and work ethic toward recruiting before the two wins is 95 percent of the momentum they have. I think the two wins are 5 percent of it. It's almost as if the recruits, because of the confidence Charlie Weis exudes, kind of expected this to happen, expected early success.

Tom Lemming

Winning 26 games is a testament to our kids' focus. It's a long season. It showed their focus and their drive to be able to keep it together and stay dialed in like that for that many games and to come out with that many wins.

Kelly Savoy

We expect him to battle and let the chips fall where they may. It's six minutes and the best man wins. Just being there, it's a great accomplishment.

Jerry Kupper

I still believe four wins is possible.

Dave Carroll

I would have given both of those wins during the season to have that state win. At the same time, I would have love to have won all three.

Maria Rowland

It's a tight division, there's not a lot of points separating a lot of teams. We're going to have to go out there and come up with some wins.

Jason Allison

The quarter was fueled by major network product wins, our drive into the growing enterprise marketplace with network and portal services products, and significant inroads into the emerging wireless arena.

David Peterschmidt

I don't consider myself as the best player in the world. I'm not obsessed with individual titles. I'm much more interested in being part of a team which wins trophies.

Ronaldo

We keep sinking our hopes with self-inflicted wounds. Once we eliminate the mental mistakes and blown assignments, we'll start seeing the wins.

Tony Travis

We had an outstanding first quarter with major wins for all product lines in every geography and the successful completion of several strategic initiatives.

Jim Armstrong

I was listening to (Detroit Red Wings coach) Mike Babcock the other night. He said it comes down to the team that shows the most determination that usually wins. I hope that he's right. That's all that we've got on our side when you match up the two teams.

Scott Muscutt

North American manufacturers have really focused on product, launching a wide variety of new and exciting model offerings, ... In the end the consumer wins, in terms of choice, product quality and affordability.

Brian Ambrose

It helps show a commitment to diversity as well, just by working with us to get that established. It helps us to establish a membership base. Everybody wins, as I see it. It demonstrates commitment that goes beyond just lip service.

Althia Collins

I don't have a big part in our offense. I didn't allow a sack and that's all I care about. I'm not a primary weapon catching the ball and I don't worry about receiving yards or touchdowns. I worry about wins and losses.

Josh Parry

In order for us to reach our goal of winning this conference, you've got to get wins on the road. This was big for us.

Grant Stout

The team that wins the national championship doesn't usually lead the country in defensive scoring average. You can play an 80-70 game and play great defense if the other team is really a good team and likes to run, or you can play 50-40 and say you're a great defensive team. That never bothered me. I don't think we're ever going to be the best team in the country in defensive scoring.

Gary Williams

At the beginning of the year, I was pitching pretty decent but I wasn't getting the wins. Now, I'm getting the wins and helping the team win games.

Jose Contreras

It?s easy to come out and play a baseball game when you?re picking up 18 to 20 wins a season. But you see what kids are made of when you go out when things don?t go your way.

Mark Mace

When it comes to the most beautiful women of all time, head-turning, full-on glamour wins the day.

Helen Johnston

I would like to finish my senior season with 82 wins, which means that we make it to the finals and I win all of my singles matches. I know that we can get there, and I bet this time we will give Western Michigan a run for their money when we do.

Heidi Romer

I feel like every year we've gotten better. Two years ago we didn't any, but we played a lot of close games. Last year, we got a few wins and lost a bunch of close games. Now, we're finally getting the wins.

Andy Parker

He's a great coach, he changed this franchise around. He's a competitor, we're a mirror of him. Defense wins championships, and look at where we are right now.

Ticha Penicheiro

We're undefeated in March. We talked about getting two wins going into the tournament. We accomplished our goal for the week. We put ourselves in the best position we could be after the last week.

Jermaine Bucknor

If he wins, it's a whole new ballgame, ... It's a step up, and if we can get in that position, I guarantee we'll be right back in the fold. And if a guy like Peter, with his punching power, can't come through, then we're in trouble. Where would we go? What would we do?

Lou Duva

This was a really good win against a really good team. They're (Downers North) going to get a lot of wins this year.

Jim Nazos

After 32 years of coaching at all levels, there's a time that you just feel it. I don't know if I'm done coaching. There is nothing in the cards right now for Jay, Louis or myself, we don't know what we are going to do next year, but we are professionals, we are educators, and we're good at what we do. The one thing it hasn't done is translate into enough wins.

Doug Oliver

A goal we had for this year was 30 wins, and we're still looking for that. We need every win, not just in the Big Ten, to improve our winning percentage in case it comes down to that.

Lauren Hines

The momentum we'll get from these close wins will drive us into next week against the Cats.

Neale Daniher

The wins are a credit to our players. Our players are grinding it out everyday.

Pete Hughes

He made a reference to the teams in the playoffs in the NFL. All those teams are playing great defense. And that's what helps you win championships and that's what your team needs to do better and get wins.

Theo Ratliff

Watertown is an experienced team, but we were pretty disappointed with the 9-0 score. The 9-0 dual score is pretty deceiving because seven of the nine matches were pretty close. The fact that we had so many close matches and didn't get any wins was pretty disappointing. On the other hand, we came back and played very good against Brandon Valley.

Colette Quam

We really played Independence pretty well, we just had that bad spell we have every game. I think we're making progress, although it doesn't show in the (wins). Leadership's not been a problem. I think we need more consistent rebounding and better defense. We just have breakdowns that just kill us.

Bob Guthrie

The struggle is confused; our knight wins by no clean thrust of lance or sword, but the dragon somehow poops out, and decent democracy is victor.

Norman Thomas

I'm extremely proud of the kids. We hit this road trip (East won at Green River 72-67 Friday) head on and got two big wins. We played with as much intensity and we've had all year.

Damon Artery

Everyone works hard, but only one person wins.

Yelena Davydova

The emphasis now is on integration and combining our design concepts and expertise to achieve a car capable of challenging for race wins.

Geoff Willis

We lost a lot of close games and we hope to turn those close games into wins this year.

Jim Rise

We're finally starting to tighten up and realize that defense wins games this time of year. It's good to take the load off Tomas because he's worked his butt off all year.

Ryan Suter

We did not finish the game very good and we're not making our free throws. Even though we are getting these wins, we're not making free throws and that could be trouble.

Tony Martinucci

I think it's to our benefit. As long as he (Sean) wins, he won't see those guys until the finals.

Scott Russell

She's going to be vital to us. She kept us in games last year, and she should have had more wins. But we just couldn't give it to her. Our problem was that we couldn't put the nail in the coffin because we couldn't score enough runs.

Lori Alexander

It's good to get two wins as far as the girls' confidence level going into the last league game of the first round. Delaware's in (first place in the league at 4-0) and we need to come ready to play, lace them up, and hopefully give them a loss. We're going to have to bring our A game in order to that.

Tracey Galloway

Preval wins with 51.15 percent.

Michel Brunache

It's not about personal achievements or personal wins, it's about winning as a team. We haven't won as many games as we would like as team.

Mark Prior

Its hard to win on the road in our conference. But [COS] is a good team. They're well-coached ... they're going to get their share of wins.

Brett Davis

We've gotten on a good roll here. Twenty wins is 20 wins. I think we're the best team in Kentucky. I'd definitely be upset if we don't make the (NCAA) Tournament.

Anthony Winchester

If we end up with a majority government you could see a bit of a rally in the currency but it would be short-lived. Canada's economy is comfortably in surplus and that backdrop isn't going to change, no matter who wins.

Marc Levesque

There might have been good shifts, but we turned the puck over a lot. They're a good team and jumped on our mistakes. They did all the little things better than us, and that's what wins games at this time of the season.

Toni Lydman

If we can get 20 wins with this type of young team, I think we'll look back at the year as a real achievement.

Denise Bierly

(Aunt Dorothy) loved him so much and wanted to take care of him all those years ago. She can take care of him and have him live with her. I can be her support system. When she can't take care of him anymore he can come live with me. Everyone wins in this situation.

Brandi Knight

It'd be nice to get back to .500 and see where we are at, ... If we could reel off six or seven wins in a row, conceivably we'd have a chance.

Todd Walker

I think conditioning will come into play. The team that goes out there and sets the pace, sets the tempo, will be the team that wins the game.

Todd Clapper

He will probably quit if he wins the title. If he crashes in the round of 16, what I fear, his system will have failed.

Lothar Matthaeus

I think the reason he's lasted so long is that the wins are secondary. I don't see how you can last in this crazy profession if all you care about is winning. It's draining. Once the snow clears, you realize there is much more to this game than winning and losing.

Dan Del Porto

Sometimes, teams need confidence, ... They need to feel what that gel is like, when everything seems to go right. We've got a couple home games here. I think it would be a good opportunity to start stacking some wins up.

Hunter Hillenmeyer

It's a nice award and nice to get the individual recognition, but right now we're focused on trying to get a couple of wins this weekend.

Melanie Boeglin

Our goal is to win the NESCAC, whether in the regular season or through the tournament - we'd love to get that NCAA bid. The wins are obviously important, but trying to form a cohesive team and creating a situation where everyone is working together towards the same thing is just as important as everything else.

Martha Whiting

Hood River is the portion of that district that tends to vote more Democratic. It's the rest that consistently votes Republican. So somebody that wins already in the Hood River area puts us in a good position.

Fredrick Thomas

These three teams are among the five toughest in our league. Coming in off of these wins (the other being a 6-1 victory over West Haven last Wednesday) should give us the boost that we need.

Rick Gedney

There's an old saying, 'Defense wins championships' and there's a big question mark there. It's been there the whole season, it's been our Achilles' heel. We can talk about it all we want, coaches continue to harp on it, but it takes our defensive players on the field to stand up and do their job and it's as simple as that.

Peter Vagenas

There's been a difference in Congress. I expect to see a much more favorable Congress next year, no matter who wins. People are not going to forget Firestone/Explorer quickly.

Clarence Ditlow

It's a win. We got two wins tonight and that's what we came for. Now we have to get ready Friday night for three more.

Russ Witzig

This wasn't one of our better games offensively. We rushed some decisions and got caught up in the competitive nature of the game. We didn't do a very good job finishing the game, but a win's a win.

Bob Feasel

I couldn't be anymore happier. This counts as a thousand wins.

Wake Wood

She played excellently on that end, ... It never shows up on the stat sheet but defense wins games.

Holly Harris

It's nice to have a couple wins under our belt going into this week.

Bill Wallace

Right now, they are a group of boys that are solid top to bottom, we have no holes. So if we stay healthy to the end of the season, get some wins and stay aggressive, I think a lot of good things are to come.

Skip Pighetti

I think we had a very good year. How you feel about a season depends a lot on how you finish, and we would have liked to finish differently, but from the overall standpoint it was 21 wins with the schedule we had and a tough league, so I feel good about that.

Robin Selvig

There are still a lot of things we still need to work on. We've got a long season ahead of us, with hopefully a lot more wins.

Toni Varacchi

I think it's a good thing that the guys had been given some time off earlier in the week and were able to relax. We've had a great run of three straight wins against the Reds, Cats and Blues.

Brendon Botha

Life is strange. Every so often a good man wins.

Frank Dane

NTP only wins if they get paid out. They don't win if RIM goes to zero. NTP is looking for money, plain and simple. And RIM has a lot of cash.

Barry Richards

The last 9 minutes of the game seemed like 20 days. Holding onto a lead like that and then knowing it's over ? it means a lot. ... We haven't gotten the big wins throughout our whole careers here, but today things fell our way.

Brandon Bowman

We're still in it, and we feel like we still can win it. We need to have a better day (today). It is a one-day season right now, and the team which comes out and wrestles the hardest wins.

Nate Skaar

We take a lot of pride in our defense. It definitely wins games in the long run.

Brittany Wilkins

We played tenacious man-to-man defense. I was glad to see that these girls understand that defense wins championships.

Myron Corbett

Take Shaun White. A rider of his stature has so many opportunities on and off the board that a team spot would not be the best for him. But we can take the pieces that work to his benefit and everybody wins.

Jeremy Forster

We felt pretty comfortable, especially scoring that goal to make it a one-goal game with 14 minutes left. Most of our games were come-from-behind wins. We?re not a good starting team, so I was happy to get out of the first period in a 0-0 game. But we got behind, and you can?t do that in the playoffs.

Griff Richard

I am more focused on this and what is ahead not about the other wins. The 250 wins is more of a testament to all the former players and teams I've coached.

Kent Houser

We definitely still think the opportunity is there. But now it's a 'if this team wins or that team loses' situation.

Mike Henderson

In all four, we split the bouts (seven wins for each team), but our inexperience cost us and we didn't get the bonus points to win. We're right there with those teams.

Anthony Verdi

There were a lot of people putting weight in the IBM decision. But the first company to market with this wins.

Ben Holmes

There have been a lot of great coaches and players come through the program and I'm proud to have been a part of the 1,000th win. To be one of the 30 or 40 programs in the state to have 1,000 wins is a great honor.

Greg Nossaman

We're not really looking for moral wins. We knew we could play with them. A lot of people might not have thought that, but we knew we were good enough to play with them.

Chris Capko

The goal is, win all our home games. If we get that done, then everything else will take care of itself. Our first half of our schedule is really tough, so we've got try to come out with as many wins as we can.

Marcus Nash

We don't have the big hitters. We've had to adjust our game and the situations we use work for wins. But we're definitely not putting up the big numbers like we did last year.

Debra Tolar

Wins and losses only carry you so far. But education will carry you longer.

Paul Kostin

If you're the champion and you get beat, the fighter who wins is the new champion. It's very straightforward. We offer fighters an alternative, and we don't strip them of their belts, and we don't charge sanctioning fees. It's very simple.

Nigel Collins

Whatever happens, a win always helps. That would be the biggest thing for us. We're trying to bag as many wins as possible before the Big Ten matches. That will always help the team and help everyone individually.

Sasha Abraham

It feels good and bad. It's nice to get three wins in a row, but I also felt like in some of the areas, we took a little bit of a step backward tonight.

Aaron Johnston

It's going to be very difficult for the Marlins to bring their fan base back. It's just a unique situation from the standpoint of there aren't too many times that a team wins two championships in such a short period of time (seven years) and yet they gut their roster and threaten to move.

Patrick Rishe

That's as tough an opening four games as you can have. If we can come through that with a couple of wins, I like our chances to have an excellent year.

Bruce Miller

If you were to ask me (how the season was going) last week, I would have been disappointed. But with the win against Spirit, the way we practiced, and the way we played out here, I'm proud ? not so much of our 21 wins, but just the fact that we finally came together.

Dave Turco

We got a couple wins under our belt.

Jim Yeamans

Basketball is a game of runs. Who has the longest one at the end usually wins.

Gus Simpson

One guy wins and one guy loses, but it's not entirely up to him. Our sport is so crazy that on any given Sunday, anybody can win. You can run the same race over and over five times, and you'll probably get five different winners. It's wild.

Apolo Ohno

J.D. was a real cool guy. I don't think anyone had any personal problem with Johnny at all. But the nature of this business is wins. And when you don't get it done, they make changes.

Tony Battie

The team that gets off to a good start wins pennants.

John Mcgraw

We're the top two teams according to the standings. Whoever wins is in the driver's seat, so we've got to take care of business.

Curtis Terry

They say that defense wins championships, and we feel like we play good enough zone and man defense to go far in the tournament. Offensively, with the size we have, we always stress getting our inside game working because that will open up the outside for us, too.

Brandon Martin

When one of us wins, everybody wins.

Janet Miller

In Ohio, it's particularly significant because that's the largest city in Ohio, and that is a key battleground state (in presidential elections), so Democrats clearly scored big wins out there.

Bill Schneider

Each week, get better, ... Each week just get improve on what I need to improve on. Each week to get wins.

Patrick Crayton

It definitely requires the server and us to be on the ball. No restaurant really has the time to ask 20 questions, but over time, you build that database and begin to customize the experience for your guests. It's a win-win situation: The guest wins, and we win.

Michael Luria

They definitely have been taking their shots at us. Our star players have taken a few lumps against them. But we'll take the wins every time and not worry about that.

Kyle Wellwood

If he wins, it's a whole new ball game. It's a step up and if we can get in that position, I guarantee we'll be right back in the fold. I thought Kirk Johnson was going to come through for us. He didn't. And if a guy like Peter, with his punching power, can't come through, then we're in trouble. Where would we go? What would we do?

Lou Duva

I was sitting in the dugout thinking earlier in the game that it would be a little bizarre if we would've won 2-1 again. I'll take a 2-1 win any night, but I sure do love those 6-1 wins a little bit better. You can breathe a little bit easier.

Brooks Shumake

This gives us confidence; it's something to build on. Wins like this make you better in hurry.

Scott Ballard

I think our guys really adapted well in the third quarter. We knew we'd beaten Independence pretty badly the first game, and we knew that wouldn't be the case this time. Over the next two weeks, the team that usually adjusts will be the team that wins.

Chris Rider

That's something to build on. I've been talking to the kids about the second round of the conference season and going 5-0. Whoever wins the tournament gets the No. 2 seed. We're fighting for that.

Stacey Alston

Performance wise there are no complaints from me. We created plenty of chances after playing some good football, but couldn't take them. A couple of wins in our next two matches could change the picture dramatically.

David Hodgson

At the end of the day, defense wins games and defense wins championships. So we want to make sure we are good defensively. Tonight proved that we can do it and now we just have to continue to do it.

Bo Oshoniyi

We have one goal, like the 20 other fast guys out there, to go for wins and we definitely want to win the championship. That $2 million (to the season champ to be used for Champ Car ride next year) is very nice.

Jonathan Bomarito

We're hoping to get a couple of wins and get some momentum for the tournament. The win against Fisher Catholic helped a lot because the girls know that they can do it.

Anna Kramer

That was the start of our run last year, when we went on the road and got those two big wins. It's definitely a place where we played well in the past. We've been close on these road games. They've been there for the taking.

David Chiotti

The two of us put up some wins, but we had wins all across the board, and we needed that. We always need extra guys, and I knew it was going to be a really close meet. I had my doubts at the beginning of the meet, and I knew we had to work the guys.

Ross Buckwalter

Great stats right there. I haven't played particularly well in the Shootouts. Even though I haven't played particularly well, we've still gotten wins. So it's good to have teammates who can back you up.

Dedrick Finn

Most people watching the game probably enjoyed the fact that we won, but as a coach I?m going to be very critical. I?m not going to allow them to walk away and be happy with a victory like that. It?s about how they play the game. Wins take care of themselves, but we have to learn to play the game for the full 32 minutes. We can?t get caught up in one-on-one basketball.

Kermit Carolina

We've made our own bed this year. We had 50-point wins, 40-point wins. The other night, that's uncommon territory.

Jim Donofrio

We got our eight wins. But at the same time let's get three more, we're going into the state tournament 11-9, you tend to get a good draw.

Pete Asadourian

Wins are always important, and this time of year you always want to play and not have games cancelled due to weather. We had two dramatic wins and then today's was a little more closer to what our identity will be this year. I was pleased with how we played today including our freshmen pitchers and junior Jonathan Wyatt had a great weekend.

David Perno

We got those close wins over Big Walnut and Central Crossing, who are very good teams, early and the kids really started to believe in themselves. We started setting our goals higher after that.

Matt Hammons

I think we should do OK against Peoples [Academy]. We have had a dry spell with home game wins, so we are looking forward to a home win.

Roberto Abele

We got some wins we did not expect to get. We had some losses that we thought would be wins. The 43-24, score is a matter of a couple of matches. We were in striking distance of our ninth-straight sectional title.

Kevin Mackin

We've got a schedule where there's four or five games up front that are winnable, ... If we get off to a good start, I think there's a possible, four-five, six wins out there.

Bryan Miller

It's good, but it's far from over. You always need four wins to get the series, so you just have to concentrate on the next game.

Jose Theodore

We?re looking to get wins. When the game is over, regardless of what happened during the game, a win is a win and we?re happy with that. In the end, it?s another win for us and we?re trying to make the playoffs. It?s going to be a dog fight, but that?s what our goal is.

Tim Cronin

We're happy to get a win to start the season. A lot of the guys playing now were a big part of the two wins to end last year and we hope to keep them motivated to continue the streak.

Todd Matthews

You know, it's going to happen. I'm not going to worry too much. We're getting wins and right now we're in first place and that's all that matters.

Gino Guyer

These two wins were huge. We beat two quality teams. Now the secret is continuing it into district and region play. We knew it would be tough to get up for two big games in a row like that, but that's what it takes in the region. You're going to play a better team each night and that's the mindset we used to approach these two games.

Sally Zimmerman

I think any kind of win is encouraging. We've kind of played up and down all season - play one good game, play one bad game. We just put two wins together in a row, so I have to call that encouraging. Plus, we're playing for the championship of the John James.

Dan Favreau

These guys have held their composure. That's one thing I'll give them is that they haven't lost their cool and don't let the game get out of hand. Pretty soon these ties will turn into wins.

Marc Hefke

He has done that a few matches where he battles back and wins one in the third period. I didn't have the stomach for it tonight, but he did it again.

Kevin Harriman

At this point, there's not much correcting mistakes. It's all about getting wins; that's all we have left. If we lose, we go home.

Taj Gray

Our defense has really stepped up after losing all four starters from a year ago. They have done a fantastic job and helped to preserve wins.

Chris Liesendahl

He saved us at least two runs. Pitching and defense wins big ball games.

Bob Shinkan

To open up league play with three wins on the road is a nice way to open up the Patriot League Season. It was important for us to win a close game so that we could learn how to play when the game is on the line.

Joe Kinney

Only seven wins last year, but we lost our big kid early and we started two freshmen. This year we started two sophomores and a freshman. We played a little better basketball.

Tom Caudill

I don't bat an eye at stuff like that. I've had my share of wins. If I worried about the games I should have won, it would probably drive me crazy. It was a fun game to pitch in.

Roger Clemens

He has earned a reputation as a great wrestler and now people seem to root for his opponent who is almost always the underdog. The gym was quite loud on Friday in Dayton when he failed to pin his opponents, even though both of those wins were very lopsided. I guess it just goes with the territory.

Jeremy Reichert

What I really look at is the resurrection of the basketball program. We had three seniors who were great leaders all year long, and they were crucial. Their leadership and their work habits set the tone as to how practice went. No one gave us a chance to be where we are, in this game, let alone getting 16 wins, and I can't say enough about those kids in that locker room.

Ray Kimball

He wins all the one-on-one battles for the puck. He makes you want to go out there and compete just as hard.

Derek Damon

We played good defense. They only scored 45 points. But we couldn't shoot the ball. That's been our problem all year long. Defense gets you here but offense wins it for you.

Shaheed Saleem

We still believe that our business is fundamentally strong and we will continue to pursue competitive wins through [requests for proposals], develop additional... projects and aggressively pursue acquisitions. We are optimistic that we will be successful in securing new programs and that our earnings will regain momentum in subsequent quarters.

Tim Cole

I'm disappointed, but I hope the team wins.

Chris Dingman

It's cool to have that car. Usually the first thing (Greg) says when he wins is this is for the troops. We feel the same way.

Jim Byrne

I haven't noticed any change in him, and I've been around him for three years. I just know he's a fighting person, and he's trying to get out there and get wins.

Lance Harris

I don't think it's a secret. Our familiarity with the conference and our past wins have made us feel more confident and we're more focused on getting the job done now. If you can't get excited for conference games, you just can't get excited at all.

Amber Daulbaugh

We talked about the importance of collecting wins at home. We need to get wins right now. If you have an opportunity to sweep an opponent at home you need to do it.

Walt Kyle

Joe should definitely be near the top of the list as far as guys being considered. It's not his fault we don't score a bunch of runs for him. He could have 15 wins.

Bobby Crosby

I think that shows you what wrestling the kind of schedule we wrestle does for you. Sure, some of our kids might take their lumps and not have a lot of wins, but it pays off in a big way at the end of the season.

Mark Durante

This was a big win to come from behind like we did. Hopefully we can keep things going after two wins in the tournament.

Jim Martin

Whoever goes the furthest wins.

Abe Beachy

I was prepared to go home knowing I had done a good job, but in the end, power wins. But sometimes the little guy wins.

Melanie Hubbard

I'm five wins away from reaching 100 wins, and I want this team to take me there. This is a special team and I'm very confident that we can achieve our goals.

Megan Callahan

This is what it is. We ... have a chance to get to 20 wins this season. That's something to be proud of, and it's my job to get 'em motivated to keep playing. They'll keep playing.

Jacob Walton

The improvements we've made in the past week have been dramatic. I think once the girls get a couple wins under their belt, they'll start getting some more self-confidence and believing they can win.

Brittany Brown

It is really disappointing in the context of how we played in December when we had four wins out of four and scored 13 tries.

Michael Foley

I learned a long time ago, you gotta take wins and be happy. I knew they'd come back. In fairness to our guys, we got a lot of foul trouble in that first half. Trying to guard Michael White, we did a decent job of holding him to 16 points, but he puts a lot of fouls on people.

Scott Gernander

It's not about wins and losses at this point. It's about seeing what we can and can't do and learning.

Mike Goldstein

We had some guys come through with some big wins. We saw some bright spots and some sharp movement today.

Mark Crisp

Our next goal is to go for 13 wins in the regular season.

Carey Smith

We're not winning many games, but our effort in practice is there every day. We try to tell the kids every day that we want to get better, and they're doing that. It doesn't reflect in our wins, but it reflects in how hard these guys work every day.

Mike Ricci

This was our first game playing without Travis, and he's a double-double guy. He's a kid who's very athletic and would have helped us down the stretch. He played a big role in our five wins.

Dan Mahurin

Where the touch of the lover endsAnd the soul of the friend beginsThere's a need to be separate and a need to be oneAnd a struggle neither wins.

Jackson Browne

Who misses, or who wins the prize?Go, lose and conquer as you can:But if you fail, or if you rise,Be each, pray God, a gentleman.

William Makepeace Thackeray

This year, it was difficult to get started. The change of their coach and coaching staff, it was a big adjustment for the kids. (The 21 wins) really attests to their skill level.

Maureen Barnett

Normally this always happens. During the spring, the defense always wins. It's nothing new; the fans should know it happens every year.

Bryan Pata

They are on their home court. They have 100 something wins there, and they have history and all their fans behind them. We just hope to pose a significant challenge and not come out there to just roll over and die. We want to know that at least we fought hard whether we win or not.

Suzi Babos

We played as a team, passed the ball, shot the ball, and as a team played well overall. We could have had a couple wins before this, but this was definitely a big step for us.

Maarty Leunen

Wins are always good. ... When you blow out a team the first time you play them, it's sometime hard to come out with the same fire in your belly. But I was proud with how we hung in there and fought.

Matt Kordsmeier

The lady who wins will get toes, nails, a massage ? the whole works.

Lonnie Guy

Austin wrestled a very good match against Colfax and Bryan and Joe had very good wins against Colfax as well. Ryan had a close match, but was able to pull it out.

Troy Houge

This program, we were struggling, we went through a lot. Each year we just kept getting better and better, improving our win totals. We didn't get 20 wins this season, we were right there with 19. Overall, we didn't do what we set out to do but looking back it was still a pretty good career.

Roderick Middleton

On defense we were real solid today. We are starting to do the little things right that lead to wins.

Robin Wozny

At the top level of international competition, there is very little difference between the various jumpers and who performs best on the day wins.

Anju Bobby George

These last two wins after our January gives us momentum.

Bryan Larrison

Losing is very contagious. When you fall into a streak like we've done, it becomes very easy for you to just want to go through the motions. Right now, we're not doing that. But I think it's necessary for us to get a victory soon to show ourselves that we can be a successful team. Once we get one, I believe, then more and more wins will come.

Paul Carrington

This (season) is a big accomplishment for us. For a young school - four-year program - winning district and 18 wins is a big accomplishment for our school.

Blendal Elias

Writing songs has a therapeutic effect, and it either kills off love or wins the heart of the lover.

Shakira

He's a really bright kid. He can tell me how many wins I've had over the past two years when I can't remember!

Brian Hernandez

Everybody's ecstatic about our start right now. It's a great start to get all our home wins heading to Georgia. It's just a confidence booster.

Heidi Knabe

One of the things I've done is take our players into the gym where they hang up banners for every sport that wins a conference or section title. I tell the kids, 'Look around. Do you see anything for football?' There's nothing.

Jason Long

We get another great opportunity to win that ballgame with my at-bat, and it's just unforgivable to not put a ball in play. You don't even need to get a hit. A lazy fly to the outfield wins that ballgame.

Gregg Zaun

It gets heated, but I usually wax him. He likes to say he wins because one day he won three in a row. Anyway, one day he won a couple of games.

Wayne Ellington

That's now a huge trip for us. It means we have the chance to go to the tournament off the back of three wins if we play well rather than the 11 losses we had in Bangladesh. If we can do that then hopefully the confidence, morale and form will flow.

Andy Pick

We're disappointed in the game tonight, but it doesn't deter the body of work that we put together. Being 9-7 (in the conference), finishing seventh, and also the road wins we got, our resume is definitely strong enough to get us into the NCAA Tournament.

Dr. Louis Orr

You know, basically in a commodity business, low cost wins, ... And this is by far the best company in terms of supply chain management, marketing programs; [it] understands how to get that low cost to the consumer and to the corporate customer through a variety of areas and now they're looking at getting into the printer market.

Tobias Levkovich

Here and there we have had lapses. We have a tie and two wins. We can't wait until we play a full 60 minutes.

Rob Schremp

It's huge, just huge, and it's been our deal all year. When we get balanced scoring, well anyone's going to be a better team, but it's been the key for us finding more wins over the last couple months.

Bob Motzko

It's nice but it's not about personal achievements or personal wins -- it's about winning as a team.

Mark Prior

Our seniors have been an absolute joy to coach. They have been the foundation for this program, taking us to a school-record in wins. They have accomplished something that no other Lady Bombers team has in the history of this team. They have a lot to be proud of.

Jeff Marlow

I think we got everyone on the team in the game and that is always good. These were two great wins this weekend and I think both of these teams that we beat (Florida and Maryland) will be there at the end of the season (for the NCAA tournament).

Randy Waldrum

If he was delivering for all his clients, I would be a lot more worried. Nobody wins all the time, and if you do win all the time you're doing something bad.

Cindi Canary

We've never been big fans of beta testing at 1010 WINS. However, when the Associated Press invited us to participate in their new Online Video Network, we jumped at the chance to feature topical news video on our site. The integration was a snap and their production is top-notch. We're looking forward to prominently placing APOVN content on the new 1010wins.com.

Mark Mason

We had a lot of turnovers, a lot of penalties. That was our deal. They played pretty good. They prepared well and we played a lot of people. I think we had 600 yards of total offense. We shot ourselves in the foot -- but a win's a win.

Charles Anthony

I think it motivates the girls to some extend, and besides we like being under the radar screen. If the wins keep coming, we'll eventually get noticed. Besides, the rankings mean nothing once the tournament starts.

Rob Hilbun

Right now, it seems like we have their number. Hopefully we can build off these two wins for something more.
