[The best thing for the Williams family, of course, would be to stay put for a while. So far the signs are good. Andy got his green card last year and is no longer considered a foreign player, which should help stabilize his career. Plus, he's working hard on his defense, and Coach Ellinger has nothing but raves about Andy's play on both ends of the field.] He's one of our key guys, ... Andy's not going anywhere. |
A loss definitely kind of puts us out. Not mathematically, but common sense tells us we're out. |
As a group of players I feel that our depth chart is much deeper this season. We went about trying to improve our team speed and size and added overall better players with these additions. |
At this stage we just want to focus on winning a game. We're not even thinking about the playoffs, we just want to win a game. |
Brian Dunseth was supposed to play forward a little bit, like an attacking midfielder. But Robert Scarlett and Adolfo Gregorio were supposed to be more offensive in the first half.

Effort was good, possession was very good ... we created a lot of chances. (But) we're never going to go anywhere until we stop all the easy goals that go in. We just make it too easy for teams at times. |
Even in the first half we had moments when we played well, but in the second half, we broke down, we broke down and broke down again. It's just unacceptable. |
Everything was positive except for the final result, and that's the only thing that we're down about now. |
For us, mentally, we're pretty confident in how we're playing and what we can do, so we'll just keep building. |
Freddy may be 16, but he can still place the ball as well as anyone. |
Gomez, Jaime, Freddy, they can play some ball. If you don't put pressure on them, they're going to pick their spot and they're going to bury it. It really doesn't matter who was in goal. |
He gave Marvell all he could handle. |
