(There are) six teams sort of battling away for those last four playoff spots. But as far as we're concerned we probably have to win those last two games to really assure ourselves of going. If we were to lose one then we'd probably need some help somewhere along the way. |
A couple of them were really terrific finishes. … I thought he's been playing well lately and this certainly is a real boost to his confidence, sticking a few in the back of the net. |
A dream start really. You score five goals and you shut out a good team. Certainly a lot to be pleased about. |
Alex is a terrific athlete, and he combines that with technical ability. He's a real handful for opposing defenses and proved that tonight. |
He had a couple of really terrific finishes. It was really good for his confidence. |
I don't think there are too many teams who would like to play us in the playoffs. |
I think going into State you'd like to be a conference champ and higher seed so you could have that easier first round game. |
I thought defensively, at times, we got exposed. Far from perfect, and we've still got a long way to go to be playing perfect soccer. |
I thought we defended poorly at times and credit to them, Van Buren took advantage. We worked really hard and played well for most of the first half, but made some mistakes late hurt us. |
I understand it more now. I didn't know that that many people had been affected negatively, especially around here. I wasn't aware of that. |
If we weren't creating plenty of opportunities I would be worried. |
It was super important. This game (conference opener) last year was the catalyst for us and it is especially important to win your home games. |
It's a massive game. It's probably the most important game that we've played all year long. We really now have no margin for error at all. So we've got to go on the road and play well and we really need to win. There's really no ifs ands or buts about it. We really have to go and play well and win a game, which we're certainly capable of doing. |
Obviously two terrific rivals and a terrific early season game of football. I was pleased with the performance of the kids. Not terribly pleased with the result because I thought we did enough to win it I think we?re just going to get better from here. |
Teams will give us a really good shot because we have a target on our back. |
