Trinidad ran the ball well against us, but a lot of their yards came between the 20 yard lines. Our defense bent but didn't break. We created turnovers and forced them into tough situations.

We really challenged our kids last week. We've never gone to Trinidad and had a great game. Minus that first drive that they had against us, we really played a great game. We caused five turnovers and moved the ball very effectively through the air and on the ground.

Ellicott played hard and we are pleased with our team's progress. We are not a well oiled offensive machine but we are playing very well defensively.

It was a good win, but I'm not happy because I know our guys can play better. I'm not satisfied and we've got to get better from the top to the bottom.

We're getting there offensively. We're starting to get that identity.

Murray is a physical back and runs well. St. Mary's runs exclusively out of the shotgun. They like to spread the field with four receivers and create space for Murray to run.

We played well against a much improved Ellicott team.

Ross devotes a lot of time to kicking in practice. That really allows him to focus on that. That has been a positive move there.

We moved the ball, but it all comes down to mistakes. But you've got to give our kids credit and they played hard. No question, our defense came through and stepped it up for us tonight.
