Jon Simmons
We started most of our matches practicing doubles. Our No. 3 spot is coming together, but Marion is out. It is going to be challenging on court without her.

Mark Riggins
We've been practicing for a week so it's kind of getting old and we just want to play again. We just want to forget about the Pella game and move on. I think we overlooked Pella and we shouldn't have. We learned our lesson; we're not going to overlook anybody else.

She's been an excellent role model; she's kind of a coach's dream. You don't have to worry about her showing up for practice and being in shape. She always has a good attitude about practicing and competing in the meets. Not all kids are like that, so it's been nice to have somebody like her.
John Nunes
It felt good. It's still only my third day of practicing and getting a chance to get out here and participate in a live game. It's good to be back.

Keelan O'connell
She said she was just practicing her light, but we should have known better. That's how she gets us into a lot of them. She says she's just testing the light, then it gets into a show in L.A.
Millie Johnson
We've been practicing his kicking all week. But he was about at his limits.

I've been practicing it against our goalies. I just decided to try it out.
Derick Lessard
We wanted to win two of the three games we were playing this week, and we'd have had a better chance of doing that by forfeiting to Grinnell.

Tim Heimann
When the girls are practicing their confidence level is much higher than last year, and we hope to see that in games. We just want the girls to challenge themselves every single game to get better.

We've been practicing hard. Right now, we're clicking.

They've been here practicing all week, and they have all their paperwork in.

Peter Rogers
My main focus now is my grades. Lately, all my time is spent either on the court or sitting at home studying. If I'm not here on the court practicing, I'm at home doing homework.
Armon Johnson
Our kids were pretty impressive tonight. It's not about your opponent. It's all about you and how you play. That's what we tried to focus on. It's been awhile since we played. The kids have been practicing well and it showed out there on the court.
John Brackett
There are some very difficult loud passages and jumps, with both hands crossing over each other, ... percussive, aggressive, harsh phrases that must be practiced dozens if not hundreds of times so that in the adrenaline-filled panic of a concert you can keep your cool and hit most of the right notes. I certainly wouldn't want to live next to anyone practicing that.
Garrick Ohlsson
For some of our freshmen, especially Shannon [Davis], this will be their first opportunity to play [in real matches]. We've been practicing a lot, but it pales in comparison to actual competition.

Allan Rubenstein
One man practicing sportsmanship is better than a hundred teaching it.
Knute Rockne
It's very hard to get on that podium. It's not just practicing two hours . . . And all the guys standing up there bought into that.
Andy Gugliemini
When we were practicing for Italy that was one of my main things I talked to Coach Sue and Coach (Cori) Close about - how do I bring that leadership in that two spot? I think it's still coming up and being encouraging and still being positive and energetic.
Holly Johnson
I see a lot of other guys who haven't played at all, just practicing and sitting on the bench during games. Getting that experience down there made me a better player. Of course, everybody wants to be up here in the NBA, but you have to look hard at your future. That will help me in the long run.
Dwayne Jones
We've been practicing for a few weeks, and we're ready to get started playing.
Andy Keith
If you let that lapse, then you are in effect practicing without a license.
Jill Wiggins
Mohamed is making a difference for us. He's played well the last few games. He's getting his hands on everything. He's practicing well and taking responsibility for things.
Bill Carmody
I'm not going to lie to you. There's nothing fun about going out there and practicing twice a day in this kind of heat. But it makes us better. It makes us mentally and physically tougher. It's just one of those things you have to fight through to get to the real season.
Brad Hoover
It's something that we're practicing more and more, even myself. I'm trying to make myself more cautious as we are going through this process.
Ricardo Garcia
This year we're definitely practicing a lot more. We see drills that we're doing for a purpose, not just shooting and passing. (In the past), the guys didn't know what the systems were or what was going on. Now it seems like we're focused. It makes it easier for us on the ice, to have a game plan and to try and go out and execute it.
Tom Poti
I think the local people probably just think it's a band practicing.
Paul Hanly
We easily missed about five sacks. I know I missed one myself. There's no good medicine. You've just got to keep practicing. You get off the line of scrimmage, you get in there, make the tackle.
Scott Paxson
I've adjusted pretty well to the hurdles. I've been practicing every day to get better. I really just wanted to give my best effort and fulfill all the expectations and what people have been saying about me.
Matt Harvey
I don?t think there?s going to be a whole lot of coaching involved. There won?t be any practicing.
Bill Leatherman
I haven't really been out there yet. I've been practicing and practicing, even through the injury. I want to show the university what I can do.
Jenna D'alie
We make ourselves tougher to defend when we move the ball inside out and get more balance like this. This team keeps practicing hard every day, so we hope to play our best here at the end of the season.
Mike Warrington
If an individual is practicing a vegetarian diet ... all the research in the area indicated that the athlete will be fine.
David Nieman
And he was always out there on the ice practicing after I was through. He's always been a part of hockey or, I guess, hockey's always been a part of him.
Mike Conroy
I started practicing with him, and he just started getting better. He's a great learner.
Don Bradshaw
He's practicing harder, he's made big steps and his times are a lot better.
Jesse Mudrick
All the boys did real good for their first time out. You couldn't ask for any better. We've got a few bugs to work out, but that's what this was for. We're going to keep practicing and get better.
Richard Petty
It's going to be an experience for everyone. (The Skiers) will have the advantage because they are used to playing on the courts, and they have been practicing indoors for about a month.
Doug Ellis
He's the best contemporary architect practicing today.
David Mohney
I saw it on the scoreboard. I didn't have a lot of time to think about it because I was managing the last two innings. Tomorrow is the big day to make plans. He's been practicing and running around. That's good enough for me, of course.
Felipe Alou
They're supposed to be practicing public diplomacy.
Dennis Phillips
It was just our press-breaker. We knew what kind of in-your-face defense Windsor is noted for and we've been practicing for two days.
Krista Menard
It's gonna be hard to give it up, I'm gonna miss it a lot. Being out there practicing with them, bleeding with them.
Travis Payne
Everyone has been practicing with a lot of intensity this past week. We are not taking things lightly against two top-20 teams.
Bojana Bobusic
I've been working hard, [and] I'd like to say I was excited to hear it. I just felt like if I kept practicing hard, something good will happen. You can't get too upset or too happy in the course of training camp.
Tim Rattay
The girls trained for a few weeks before the competition, by practicing different techniques.
Samantha Smith
They should be ready to go. Darin has been practicing, so it looks like he'll be back in the lineup.
Bubba Davis
Many people just don't know. We spend hours practicing everyday, even on weekends, to make sure we get a move right.
Leah Smith
I think we are prepared for Elena. We've been practicing her different pitches, and a lot of my girls play tournament ball against her and have helped us prepare.
Amanda Bussell
Our coaches pretty much told us to just step it up. We needed to start doing what we've been practicing. I guess we need some more practice.
Nikki Marcinik
[Miami Law (number 1 on the directory) enjoys the same advantages.] We have adjuncts coming in from Argentina, Brazil, all over, who are practicing transnational litigation, ... But even beyond that, because of the population of the region, students and faculty serving in the community will find foreign law and cross-cultural aspects in [local] family law.
Dennis Lynch
Anything beats practicing in a gym right now.
Carl Tebon
If we hold it when they are practicing in Latrobe, it will be easy for them to come over here for the ceremony and they might even bring some players.
Jeff Landy
If there is a member of a squad who has been practicing a particularly interesting move or breathtaking stunt, we'll reward that.

Larry Bird
We started practicing in the spring, planning and looking forward to playing in this game and winning it.
Kevin Jackson
The kiss. There are all sorts of kisses, lad, from the sticky confection to the kiss of death. Of them all, the kiss of an actress is the most unnerving. How can we tell if she means it or if she's just practicing?
Ruth Gordon
Everybody's been criticizing our offensive line, but these past three weeks we've been practicing, we've been able to run the ball. I will be really shocked if we come into this game and we don't run the ball really, really well.
Tim Castille
If it wasn't a bye week, he probably would be practicing and going through the things he had been going through.
Chuck Barta
Not many people get to say what I say about my team. When I practice, I'm practicing with some of the best swimmers in the state. They push me, and I push them as well.
Andrew Hoffman
Our ultimate goal is to be in the final game of the Women's College World Series. It comes down to us competing and practicing every day with that mentality.
Kirk Walker
There are all sorts of kisses... from the sticky confection to the kiss of death. Of them all, the kiss of an actress is the most unnerving. How can we tell is she means it or if she's just practicing?
Ruth Gordon
I wanted to make certain that every one got a break. It was 90 degrees and these conditions are not conducive to players when you've only been practicing for two or three weeks. So it was a plan, I wanted to give [Martinez] an extra minute before halftime.
Jim Pendergast
I'm about as concerned as Jack would be if he read that I was practicing to compete in the Masters.
Mark Mccormack
He is absolutely fine. He's going to be back practicing and back to normal. There's nothing to worry about.
Mark Mangino
That's just something we do every day in practice. We go hard and somebody's going to fall. You just have to get back up and get back in the play. It comes from practicing with Coach Calhoun. He's never just going to let you lay there.
Hilton Armstrong
He was always in the gym every waking moment (practicing), ... I had to make sure he ate regularly.
Mark Simon
We'll be practicing a best practices policy. If (Constellation) does something extremely well, we can adopt the same procedure in Florida, but there's not going to be any financial impact . . . for quite a while.
Bill Swank
It feels a lot like grass. I think practicing on it is going to get us more used to it than the other teams.
Brandon Lewis
As soon as it gets cooler out you feel like you want to hit somebody. It's just a game that you can't really forget. I mean it's so much fun getting the pads on and practicing with all the guys. You go into game day and all the excitement about it. The band's playing, just getting in there. Being able to throw passes and command an offense. I mean, everything about it. I love it. I love the sport.
Doug Waechter
[He] called me the next morning before I got on my flight and said he was eager to work with me, to get me out there and start practicing.
Michael Bradley
But we've really been practicing since the end of last season.

It was good to get in a match. With the wet weather, both teams have had trouble practicing outside.

I'll start practicing tomorrow and work myself into things. I'll be fully ready for the season opener.
Troy Hudson
Practicing good respiratory etiquette by covering your mouth when you cough and washing your hands frequently will go a long way to stopping this contagion.
Benja Morgan
Oh, I always won the game when I was practicing growing up. I'm undefeated. . . . If I missed, I got fouled.
Kelly Golob
I feel a lot stronger this year. I've been practicing yoga over the year, and I can be in a positive place now. I believe there's hope for me and everybody else with MS.
Jennifer Reyes
He's always pushed me to do my best. We've been outside practicing, even when it's snowing. He knew I could be really good, and I know I wouldn't be as good as I am right now if it wasn't for him.
Diana Perez
When you are not practicing, remember, someone somewhere is practicing, and when you meet him he will win.
Ed Macauley
All season we've been struggling with our free throws. We were practicing them and we were able to knock them down.
Alejo Rodriguez
Yeah, we signed him up just to embarrass him. It's definitely a joke. You know there's some guy at home practicing. We're just here to have a good time.
John Maddox
Retiring is just practicing up to be dead. That doesn't take any practice.
Paul Harvey
He's been practicing, running around a little bit. He hasn't had a lot of contact, but he'll be ready to go. We know we need him out there.
Wesley Holmes
I can't remember playing that much zone in a game. We have been practicing it to see if [it] could help us get more depth.
Reggie Witherspoon
I've been practicing that shot - in my dreams. It seemed like it was in the air forever. I can't believe it actually went in the basket.
Anna Thompson
We've been practicing a couple of weeks, and we come over here and get blasted in our first game. We normally struggle a bit in the beginning. We forget it and move on.
Paal Trulsen
This guy is practicing. He has got to decide if it is a good opportunity or not.
Greig Veeder
For a change, we shot our free throws well. That is one thing we will keep practicing on because that is a big part of the game.
Calvin Saunders
We've just been practicing hard and it's paying off. As a team we really click and get a lot of connections on the field.
Anna Riordan
By keeping my hand in that, it's the way I keep learning. The main way you learn in medicine is by practicing and working with patients.
Andrew Weil
We're at that point in the season where we can't let things slip away from us. We have to keep practicing hard. The better we do that, the better we're going to finish.
David Baumann
We have to keep practicing and keep the same mindset as at the beginning of the season -- we have to win.
Stephen Hobbins
It was nice to be playing on our field. We're comfortable here. We've been outside practicing the last two weeks and that is starting to help us.
Stephen Hansen
The last couple of practices were real hyped. Guys were getting after each other on the floor going after balls. The coaches were calling people out for not practicing hard. When you do that in practice, it's human nature to do it in the game.
Markus Sailes
It's real frustrating, I'm not going to lie. We keep practicing so hard, then keep losing. We just have to find a way, we can't start pointing fingers.
Domanick Davis
All that practicing catches up and a lot of shots just fall.
Spencer Gardner
How can it be that being Jewish is important to people, but they're not practicing it? They're not involved in the community. Is there a disconnect here? That question kept me up.
Ken Bender
Practicing in a gym doesn't get it. And you can only go out and hit in a cage so much. You need repetitions on the field. That's what we're missing.
Tu'u Seva'aetasi
Ignorance of the law excuses no man from practicing it.
Addison Mizner
I think we're getting better. We're practicing with guys from our school now. We boxed out so hard tonight they said we were pushing too hard!
October Harris
We haven't been practicing well lately. I told them we played the first half like we've practiced. We've got to tighten the screws and become a better team.
Kurt Greene
We call her Amanda Long-Arms. We hate practicing against her, because she's got such long arms.
Melissa Richardson
My impressions are more than positive, all my 23 players are fit and all have been practicing well.
Rudi Voeller
We're used to practicing in the heat. I don't think USC will be ready for the heat.
Tyler Graunke
When you're practicing the same thing more than 10 or 12 hours a week, the injury rate gets much higher, ... And then there are games. With soccer and baseball, some of these kids are playing 60 to 80 games between April and August. The pros don't even do that.
Eric Small
Going into it we thought we were going to do really well. We have been practicing really hard, and we prepared for it really well.
Erin Housing
They've definitely picked up the stuff that we've been practicing since last spring. They want to win.
Erik Poggi
I never think that there's something I can't do, whether it's beating my opponent one on one or practicing another hour because something about my game is just not right.
