If this were played upon a stage now, I could condemn it as an improbable fiction.

This is a huge, huge win for us. All four seniors have played all four years. We got to the regional championship last year and lost it. It was our goal to get here and win it.
Ben Chappell
We just played, in my opinion, horrible that time. Of course, we redeemed ourselves against Marietta the second time. If we play like we've been playing, we should at least be able to play with them.
Robbie Stancil
People are going deaf because music is played louder and louder, but because they're going deaf, it has to be played louder still.
Milan Kundera
Baseball happens to be a game of cumulative tension but football, basketball and hockey are played with hand grenades and machine guns.
John Leonard
I was pleased with our effort. We played hard. We didn't play smart, but it's good to get back on the winning track.
James Moody
It shows that when you play team basketball, anything can happen. And (Flanagan) played team basketball.
Beth Sauser
I don't think they're 25 points better than us, they just played better.
Todd Frohwirth
The low scores reflect how high the intensity was in this game. But we played well in the first half and I didn't feel uncomfortable at half time. I had to go back and do my math again to see if we were really losing.
Jude Temple
He does need to be consistent, but we are happy with the way he played today.
Dave Woodruff
We played all four quarters tonight. We led for all four quarters, and we executed.
Allen Pritchett
I think I played pretty good. I crashed the boards, played pretty good defense. I know I could have played better.
Rodney Stokes
I think the league has lasted this long because it's so community-oriented. A lot of our players have parents and some have grandparents who played in the league. It's like old home week at our games on Saturdays.
Mike Carden
We played hard tonight and had some opportunities down the stretch.
Mick Stefanek
It was a good defensive performance, a good pitching performance. We came out and got the early lead and the girls just relaxed. We played well. Hopefully it's just a sign of things to come if we play defense like that.
Luke Wesneski
We really hadn't played together until [the Upper St. Clair game]. We just came together, maybe too soon, I don't know, but it worked. We really put together a good performance as a team.
Terry Adams
I'm very happy with the way we played and the way we executed. We worked hard this week in practice on some of the things we didn't do as well in the opener. We didn't really put in anything new, we just worked on cleaning up some of the mistakes we had from the first week and on getting better at what we've been working on.
Mike Alley
Anybody who leaves the gym tonight is going to say this team played hard. Did we win the game? No. But if we play this hard, we?re going to have a much better chance. That?s what they can control.
Tim Hopley
We have to take the positive things we?ve learned from all the games we have played, use them to get better, and just know that every game will be another biglearning experience.
Corey Webster
I played against a few top-ten players already, and I always kept losing in three sets.
Tatiana Golovin
It's a great thing for us. The first time we played BYU, the coaches put us through a whole week of preparation.
Curtis Terry
It shouldn't hurt us that much in power points. We played a team ranked higher than us and lost in penalty kicks.
Rene Villalva
As the game wore on, we played better and better. We kept possession of the ball and made them chase us in order to wear their team down.
Chris Petrucelli
He played the good ole' boy role and didn't go against them although he was already outvoted. He has the last seat. They had already outvoted him four to one but he still abstained.
Cynthia Maddox
The last two weeks we've had several games like this where we're right in it but can't find a way to get the lead. But give Eisenhower credit, they played well.
Dave Witzig
Let's not get carried away about this loss, we played well in stretches, we just didn't score when we should have.
Thomas Doll
We got off to a really slow start offensively. But I thought our defense made up for that and played really well and didn't give them any easy shots.
Lelani Gordon
It's tough when you have only four defensemen, you [as a coach] can't do anything about that. And if we had any more forwards healthy, some guys that played tonight aren't playing tomorrow.
Kris Waltze
What it came down to today was that Council Rock played a little bit better than us.
Glenn White
We kept our composure this time. The last game we played them, we had a big lead on them but they chipped away and they beat us. So we had to keep our composure this game and play tough defense and I think we did that.
Jacqueline Johannes
We played with them for about a quarter and a half, but they were physically bigger and stronger than us. They wore us down and we didn't help things by dropping about 10 passes.
Mark Buchanan
We seemed to move the ball OK. And we'd have our opportunities at first down and things like that, but they really played well. ... We've just got to learn from our mistakes. You can't make mistakes against Miami.
Joel Klatt
We did play well, but we just couldn't get the ball to go in the hoop and you're going to have nights like that. On a night where we shot a little better, that's a game we probably win. Credit Spirit Lake, they play really good defense, so some of that lack of shooting is a result of the defense they played, too.
Barry Borchers
At times, we played our best basketball of the year against them. Our kids came out of that game understanding we can compete with those teams.
John Given
I've played hurt. But this is the knee. I can't (move it around).
Miguel Cabrera
The Big 12 is a physical conference, so I just need to get stronger, ... Coming out of high school, people here are a lot stronger, a lot quicker than what I played against in Alaska.
Mario Chalmers
Everybody gave it their all, you can't be disappointed with the way we played.
Matt Siuzdak
It was a good win for us. We played to win instead of playing not to lose. It's been a nice rebounding effort for us, especially defensively - we did not give up a lot of second chances.
Paul Deacon
Unfortunately, in this particular case, some of our initial communication played out in a way that was not positive. We apologize as to how that represented us as an institution.
Mike Alden
They probably deserved to win that game more than us. We should've crushed their pitching, but we didn't. I think we just played to their level.
Harvey Staver
We got out of a lot of jams. They put the ball in play but we played pretty well defensively. We were happy.
Bill Wallace
We held them without a shot in the championship game, but couldn't seem to get the ball in the cage. I was pleased with how hard we played. I thought in both games we had a lot of intensity.
Kent Houser
It's about time I produced and played. I did what I'm expected to do.
Marcus Slaughter
This game was so much better for us. Last time it was kind of embarrassing, but the girls played well tonight, and they never quit.
Nicole Vetter
I thought we played like we were capable of playing. We were upset with how the game went (Friday). It's a 48-minute game and we only played 24.
Scott Padgett
They were a good team but we played with a lot of heart. We played together, we limited our turnovers and controlled the clock and that allowed us to win.
Jerome Stone
Humble is tied for first place, and I think we played them a pretty quality game.
Rachael Scoggin
I played my heart out like everybody else on the team did. Everybody gave it their all. We wanted it really bad, as did Jesuit because they got a second chance. They came out hard and fired up, but evidently we came out even harder.
Taylor Hovis
We played in a lot of big games at USC, so I'm used to playing in front of big crowds with a lot at stake.
Mike Patterson
I give credit to Henryville. They played us very tough.
Mikel Miller
Vince played well, played very smart.
Linda Gilliland
You saw how many different looks we had. We played up to 20 some kids tonight.
Harv Bainter
Against Nicolas, it is going to be a great match, the one everyone is waiting for. We haven't played against each other in a long time, so facing him here, in Vina, should be a great match.
Fernando Gonzalez
I am proud of them. No matter what the score was, they always played hard until the very end of each game and gave me all they had. We didn't have much height but played great defense.
Dana Scott
We were horrible in the first two periods. We played a little better in the third. I know I had a horrible game.
Sean Bergenheim
Our first goal was obviously to win the game. She needed 22 and we held her to 15 last time we played. Once the game was out of reach, our second goal was to stop her. We were like, 'you're not getting it here.' It's better for her anyway to get it at home and celebrate there.
Diane Casey
I thought the first quarter for us was nearly flawless. Our team did an excellent job playing without Erin (Parker), and our bench played extremely well.
Gina Mitchell
We just played consistent in between the tackles and turned out the first downs. It was a pretty clean game for us.
Mark Shapiro
I'm very proud of my team's effort defensively. That's the closest anybody has played them all year. This is something we can grow from.
Machelle Joseph
We like to force the action ... and I thought we played our game.
Shane Robinson
We played our hearts out. I have no regrets.
Amy Donovan
I knew she would be fine. We just tried to tell her to have fun. She played great.
Hilary Witt
Newcastle played quite defensively, but we had to keep playing and get through in the last 20 minutes, and we managed to do it.
Freddie Ljungberg
I haven't played against them in a long time. If you lose you're going to have to hear from them.
Oliver Hoyte
We played pretty well the first 30 minutes of the game. We shared the ball well, we moved the ball well. We had a 1-0 lead, but after they scored to tie it, we basically fell apart. They were beating us to every ball.
Rudy Rodriguez
He was making shots in the first half. We were getting hands up when he was shooting the ball and he was making them. We stepped up and (Jarrett) Jack and I really played the best we could to keep him in front of us, and he was missing shots.
Steve Blake
We just played four really close games and we stepped up defensively. I think we can surprise people.
Jim Migneault
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
I've played with a bunch of guys who have played in big-league stadiums. I haven't, so that sounds pretty cool.
Travis Hanson
Claire played a very tough match. She played four hard games, and Claire was finally able to counter-attack her off her short shots and win the fifth game. It was a good effort on her part.
Gail Ramsay
If we can keep playing like this, I like our chances in the area tournament. But we've got to make sure we keep playing with the intensity we played with tonight.
Willie Henry Hicks
Our doubles teams played extra smart, hitting to the open court and attacking the net, just the way good doubles should be played.
Vince Hughes
This year, it's a different team. We're definitely better than the last time we played there.
Dustin Villepigue
They played a very good game against us in round robin but we were able to take a couple of big ends and that made the difference in that game.
Markku Uusipaavalniemi
I'm very confident about the way my team played all year. I knew we could do this.
Doug Haynes
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
It's the biggest game we've played this year. We're going to Greenbrier, where they've beaten Huntsville and Greenwood the last two games. They're playing real well. Confidence is a big thing for us right now.
Stan Flenor
Defensively we just broke down. They kept coming at us pretty hard. Regardless if they got the bounces or not, there?s just no excuse for how we played defensively.
Andrew Leach
Harrison played great. He didn't make a bogey all day. He didn't have a chance to make a bogey.
Tommy Bell
I felt like our kids stepped it up today and did the things that they had to do in all facets of the game. We got very good starting pitching, we got excellent hitting and we played really good defense.
Lee Driggers
Bernie blocked better and played better than he's ever played in his career.
Barry Alvarez
This is the best the line has played in the four years that I've been here.
Trey Teague
Our defense was phenomenal. We kept our marks the whole game. I would say this was the best game we've played overall this year.
Jennifer Henderson
We really played well in the first half. We shot well, passed well and moved well without the ball.
Jim Tildsley
We played really well against them. Their only loss has been to Midland and they are very good. You have to play these top teams to get better. If you don't you aren't going to get any better.
Lenny Glasstetter
We don't know anything about Arkansas and Miami because they haven't played yet, and Ole Miss played last weekend.
Bill Walton
Played percussively, the piano is a bore. If I go to a concert and someone plays like that I have two choices: go home or go to sleep. The goal is to make the piano sing, sing, sing.
Vladimir Horowitz
I have a greater appreciation for kitchen appliances, having played one.
Anthony Daniels
We played in-your-face defense and ran out to a 16-3 lead in the first quarter. At half, we led 22-10.
Grant Coley
In the second half we played much better defense. We were able to get our transition game going. I thought that (UMD) played a great game, but we took advantage of them not having Dietz.
Lori Ulferts
Defensively they threw some things at us that we anticipated, and on a smaller field, with our speed that our that played to our advantage. We were also able to take advantage of some of their mistakes early and that set the tone for the game.
Hans Kleinschmidt
That's a badge of honor for our coaching staff. From six minutes on, I thought we played well defensively and showed good character on our part.
Bob Punter
The four games we've played with Miami this season have all been determined in the last five minutes. That's a positive sign.
Jeff Jackson
When Jon plays like he can, nobody can stop him. He played big for us and made some crucial shots.
Jon Karnuth
We played good defense and got four key hits tonight.
Roger Jackson
We played like garbage the first half before we woke up.
Chris Olofson
Alex, Carson, and Bobby all played higher seeds and won. The accomplishments by those guys were huge for us in this win.
Marc Sieving
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
At the time I played with him (Ian), I didn't think I would ever play with another quite like him. I really didn't think that his record would ever be broken.
Dennis Bergkamp
We're going to have a small lineup, but hopefully our experience over the past two years will pay off and we'll click. Austin will be our biggest guy and he's played post before so he should be fine down there.
Kelly Winter
We didn't think it was ours at halftime. We came back when we played them, and we knew they could do it to us.
Alison Lacey
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
Everyone stepped up and shot the ball, even those who don't usually shoot it. Everyone just played so well out there.
Lindsie Wilson
Bureau Valley played hard, and so did we. We just turned it over too many times at the end.
Don Davidson
We're trying to do everything we can to keep him going. He's got a real strong desire to play, and he's played in pain the last month or two.
Fred Tedeschi
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
It was a good effort. We played well and rebounded. We did what we needed to do.
Albert Jacquez
They played hard. They always play hard. They don't quit and they're a pleasure to coach.
Chris Fenton
Mosinee played a real good game. We just weren't able to match their intensity tonight.
Jason Rappe
I felt we could do it. I didn't know if we would. This was one of our better-played games.
Gregg Hostetler
It was another very encouraging game. We played a strong game and look to do the same against some tough opponents Saturday.
Gordon Eakin
He gets a little crazy but he's just an intense coach. He's played the game for so many years. It's as if he wishes he was still out there with us.
Patrick Carriere
We haven't played in two weeks, so I was glad that we came out aggressively. It was a great all-around game, we played really tough D. It's always good to get the first one out of the way.
Mike Hamburger
We lost two very close matches. I thought we played well considering how much competition we've had.
Jason Olson
It's such a sacred place. So many people have played there.
Carrie Underwood
Four things were wrong with the way we played. Too many stupid penalties (16 for 51 minutes), too many turnovers by the defense, too many odd-man breaks and too many missed opportunities.
Nick Pollos
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
We have had great fun together. But I don't think we played inspired the last 40 minutes. We just played, not with our hearts. We didn't want it as bad as they did.
Irving Garcia
That big run put us where we needed to be. We played good defense and the press really got to Mountainburg early and it got us some easy shots. That's the way we like to play.
Alan Barton
He was one of the standouts in the club he played for.
Mirek Porosa
Gray was a very good game for us. It was a good way to bounce back after Lake Region. We had a lot of balanced scoring and we played solid defense. Part of our offense comes off our defense and if we lose that, we?re in trouble. We had both going for us against Gray.
Darick Clark
After that first goal, they came pretty quick. We just had some trouble getting going, but once we did, we played well.
Brian Adams
The last time I played for South Africa was in July so I've had itchy feet to play for my country.
Jennifer Wilson
It was a tough match. She played good and she had good results lately. So I had to fight hard for every point to win the match.
Shahar Peer
I was such an ugly kid - When I played in the sandbox, the cat kept covering me up.
Rodney Dangerfield
[Ullmann, 66, still feels very close to Marianne.] Of all the things I did for Ingmar, this is the character I could most associate with, ... He based a lot of it on what he knew about me. I also felt she was the least neurotic of all the women I played for him.
Liv Ullmann
Matt was really in control. He played beautifully.
Bob Hansen
There used to be a group of seven of us that played every day. Four have died. Hiram Brooks, Ivo and I are left from that group, but Hiram has arthritis problems.
Phil Wilson
It gave me and the players a chance to see some of the other teams in the district and a lot of good teams in the area. We got to see how we compete with them. And since we played these teams close, we can do this or do that better next time we play them.
Charlotte Jones
I'm very proud of my players. They played very well.
Rick Bohlander
Last week we gave up 42 points. This week we gave up zero. I guess we played better.
Dontez Sanders
The kids just played with a lot more intensity in the second half. Their defense was better and their rebounding was better. I think they also hit more 3s in the second half.
Robert Capello
It was not one of our better performances all the way around. I don't think we played to our potential. We had the chance to put this game away and we didn't.
Jessica Wilk
We played them off the park in the first half, but they deserved to win in the end.
Bob Barnett
I feel like we played really well. We gave ourselves so many opportunities. We shot two-under par today. It was just a really good match.
Beth Daniel
It's amazing how kids can bounce back from all that playing. They came out and played absolutely great.
Marcie Scholl
They had opportunities today and took advantage of what they could and I have nothing to be upset about. They played their best match all year.
Nich Schafer
I played like garbage. From the start, the game wasn't what we planned it to be. As a team we never got into any type of flow.
Alex Walker
We came out and the intensity was high. St. Pat's just really played well right off the bat and we couldn't get our wind back.
Chris Gardner
Our kids are devastated. They played with their hearts and soul and I'm so proud of them. It would have been so easy to give up when we were down 14 (49-35), but they didn't.
Pat Brennan
In the second half, they (the Falcons) played more of a man-to-man defense. So that helped us out because it gave us more looks to the basket.
Karl Smesko
Our defense played well behind him. Heath is more confident once he sees our defense is making plays.
Kevin Maxwell
At the end of the day, am I happy with the way we played? Absolutely. Bottom line, we beat 'em.
Gary Andersen
This was a really tough match, very hard fought by the both of us but I feel I played a great game today.
Juan Carlos Ferrero
We couldn't contain Dean. A couple of times we played very good defense on him, and he made really hard shots.
Chris Mooney
Turlock is a much more experienced team and they have a lot of big girls. Our girls stood in there against them and competed. They hustled and played as a team.
Jennifer Walker
Our kids played very well, ... We were in the game the entire time. We tried to contain Costa ... but he's so quick and strong. We couldn't hold him.
Bret Harte
It had to come to an end sometime. We played hard and didn't give up, but our shots weren't falling. They got us out of sync a little bit.
Charles Burks
It was a good game. I thought Griswold played well. Our depth was the difference. Our second group played very well when our starters were struggling.
Bob Monahan
Our defense was phenomenal. We played with tons of intensity. Cape is a good football team and I was really proud of my kids.
Randy Small
As Matlock would say when people see the funny pinwheel cap they knew who you were and what that meant. They knew it was going to be a fight with a team that played hard. That's what people knew every time they saw that funny hat.
Steve Stinson
Our best game of the year, by far. We had a little trouble early, but they played their hearts out.
Scott Cummings
We played a lot of small ball in the first game.
Sean Cotter
I'm very happy because we played very physical tonight but San Jacinto did a lot of good things.
Josh Henderson
We ran into a team that played really well tonight. It wasn't a lack of effort or not believing, but they just beat us tonight. They swung the bats better than we did.
Rick Heller
I think we would have played better if we'd kept going. I think that would've raised the confidence of the team.
Sgt. Steve Maynard
We played rotten. We played like we were finishing a marathon. I think (Clear Creek) could have set down on defense and we still wouldn't have scored.
Chuck White
The players really hustled and played pretty well on the defensive end.
Bill Ramsay
The girls played well. As long as they are improving, that's all I can ask of them.
Sue Vories
It was nice to win one when we didn't play well. That didn't happen much last year. We probably only played well for a three-minute patch. We had a few good players, but we couldn't get five going all at once.
Cheryl Chambers
I think they really stepped up and played well. They were competitive and played hard. At times they made some freshman mistakes, but that's OK.
Reed Goldsmith
We haven't played them in doubles before but we have faced them in singles so we know what to expect. It should be very close.
Ron Garrett
They've improved from the last time that we played them. They swung the bat and hit the ball well tonight.
Carl Fuller
They hit some big shots and played the way they normally play. At times we were not as disruptive defensively as we needed to be, and they made us pay.
Wally Vickers
It's huge. It feels good to get the first (postseason) win. Plus, it's the first time we've played (at the Fairgrounds).
Cody Rogers
He played three straight five-set matches before the (four-set) final. If that's a geezer, I want to be a geezer, too.
Alan Goldberg
It was a great way to get back on the winning track and put Saturday behind us. The guys competed well and we played hard.
Scotty Nichols
Hagen played in tournaments as though they were cocktail parties.
Charles Price
Including one team right in his backyard that his father played on for many years and went to the Hall of Fame from.
Anthony Munoz
He's 6 feet 5, 285 pounds, but he can run. He played end for us and teams ran away from him. But he still chased things down.
John Rosnick
This was a very well-pitched game. We came back from a tough loss (5-4 to Ewing Thursday) and played probably a better game today. It?s all part of learning how to win.
Brian Nice
Cooper had everything to prove today. Cooper played well today -- and they could've rolled over -- but they didn't.
Wes Overton
Particularly at this school, it's a good way to stay competitive and to keep playing sports. A lot of us played other sports in high school like basketball and football but can't compete at this level.
Jack Gaynor
Defensively, we played pretty hard and our net defense wasn't bad. But we didn't have the opportunity to put the ball away on them as much as we liked.
Gary Graham
It's an amazing squad they've got. Our guys really dug in, hung in there for a little bit and started to play their football. Basically we played very well and the crowd was appreciative of it and they were pleased for us.
Frank Yallop
We had opportunities, we had many of them, and River Ridge played outstanding defense. (And) I'm damned proud of our defense, they did an outstanding job.
Deron Clark
All I have on them is some box scores from their playoff games. We haven't played them in any of my eight years as coach. All I know is we have to hit better than we did on Tuesday.
Sherri Paez
I think we played better in the last three games, ... Even though we lost Tuesday (in New Jersey) you could see the improvement. We are beginning to find ourselves and be more comfortable out there.
Luke Ridnour
She's pretty good. She played the summer with us and she did pretty well.
Claire Miller
They played good defense, and we just couldn't put the ball in the basket.
Greg Robinson
The last two games we played them we had a lead and just didn't finish. This was a must-win for us.
Terri Keown
He played a lot of slot in high school. Based on his history, he could probably help us there.
Todd Monken
Could you imagine what she'd do if she played golf all the time?
Rick Sample
Both teams played hard today. Coming into the seventh, though, we walked the first guy, got the next guy out, but didn't play well enough to win.
Paul Twenge
They were so high in the business, I saw a lot of people trying to hang onto them, to get favors from them, and it turned me off. So I just played wherever I could around town.
Jerry Brookings
I played good today, but had too many unforced errors. It was very good for my career … he gave me seven games.
Denis Istomin
Plus, the candidates that got their petitions in on time played by the rules. We can't renege on that.
Nick Petrone
They were tired. We played two lines for two games. It's hard on the kids. That's asking a lot of energy.
