After the absence of our setter (freshman Erika Price) and a makeshift lineup, we came out a lot more in tune in what we have been practicing on over the last two-and-a-half weeks, ... Our chemistry and positioning of players was much better tonight. |
All of the families here are very close. We don't want to see this happen to anyone, especially a little boy. |
Benton just hits too hard for us. We're slow on defense and we didn't anticipate very well and it showed. |
Erika (Price) was a little timid in the first game. It was her first varsity start but as the night went on she seemed to fit in well, |
Every soldier I talked to said, 'Don't pull out. Do not make it so those who have been wounded and those who have died have done so in vain. We know we can take care of this cause. We got to finish this,' |
For me it's like winning the lottery. |
He's probably going to be one of my top two or three runners, if not my No. 1. If we can get to .500, I would consider that a successful year. |

I think he needs a good couple of years to learn the system. |
I think we're very solid there. The only concern is we've got a lot of respect for Brian Lapham, a First Team All-Ivy player a year ago, and he's our best tackle. |
I thought we played better defensively. We weren't very good against Benton. Our emotion was also a lot better tonight, ... If we play like we did tonight, we'll be in some games. |
I thought when we passed RE-1 and RE-2 zoning, that would solve the problem. Evidently it didn't. |
I try to get as many kids focused for the states as I can, and that's how I judge how I'm doing as a coach. To me, that's a better measurement of how I'm doing with the talent I'm given, how many players get medals. If all these kids step up and do what they're supposed to do, we'll be OK. |
