In the grand scheme of things, the total economic impact is relatively small. This is not a high employment industry. Therefore, even if the concern persists, there are likely to be few knock-on effects.

We have a hard time gettting up against non-conference opponents and playing well. We have to improve on ball control and get more confident in our abilities before Saturday.

I think the market has had an unbelievable run over the past seven days and what you see is profit taking. What's driving the market today (Friday) is what people are doing in the cash market, so it's not options expiration.

We wanted a place that was on campus, even though this is a community church, we wanted to be right in the heart of campus because it's easy for the college (students) to get here, ...
