We need to put together a little streak here the rest of the way out. We'd like to try to be over .500 the rest of the season. That's what it will take to finish on the strong note we need here to carry over for next year. That will give the guys that hope for next year.

They've both been playing well. We're are not getting a lot of offense, so it's tough. But they have been giving us a chance every night.

They're all really starting to gain an understanding of the game.

For me, it's the opportunity to see my kids grow up. I knew that was going to be very difficult with any type of coaching job.

We are more of a blue-collar team. We don't have the big playmakers we can rely on. This is just a young team that does the best it can to take advantage of their opportunities when they arise.
