It was frustrating because I thought I had some momentum. But I know what (Arena) is looking for, and I understand what I have to do to make the team. My job is to put the ball in the back of the net. |
It's a big opportunity for me because it's a chance to show what I've got. It's definitely important to show what I can do over 90 minutes and try to make an impact. |
It's another opportunity to perform and make the team. |
It's going to be a World Cup-type game with a World Cup-type atmosphere because of the pressure on Germany to win right now. |
Look at what's happened this whole season. Brad Davis went down. I went down. Last week, we didn't have Danny Califf, ... One of the great things about this team is that everyone knows their role. |
The biggest pressure I feel and the players feel is in the locker room. Our expectations are high. Do we expect to score five goals every weekend? No. But we do expect to win. |
The program has enabled me to get an abroad experience while retaining seminary life, the Liturgy of the Hours, daily Eucharist, spiritual direction, etc.. |
The team is playing well right now. I can't say enough about the performance they put in tonight. It was a hot and muggy night and it was tough moving around. After 20 minutes out there, I was sucking wind. I can't imagine what those guys were feeling out there throughout the whole game, |
This was a huge win for us tonight. We came in with the expectation of getting three points and we accomplished that. They kind of took it to us in the first half, but we were resilient and we were able to hold them off. Then we took our opportunities when we got them and we just continued our good (form) recently. |
Tonight was the highlight of my career. |
