I never wanted to proverb

 I never wanted to be worse than third, but he got bumped pretty hard coming out of the gate. We lost a little positioning after that. I was happy with the race. He still finished up well.

 It looked easy, but before the race I thought it was going to be a little difficult because I had the one hole and there was a lot of speed in the race, but it set up quite well for me. I got lucky. I wanted him to break as sharp as he could but he kind of bobbled coming out of the gate, just a little bit, one or two jumps, he kind of lost his balance. After that it was no problem.

 Ian Powell almost won the consolation final of the 200 back. It was a very positive race for us to watch. He finished very hard and it was a great race for him. He also had a pretty strong 200 fly.

 Before the (Tour) departure, I was in excellent condition. The first 10 days, I felt pretty good too. Then, once the mountains came along, it all went badly, ... Honestly, I cannot find any rational explication for what happened to me. I know, however, that I can do well in the race. The proof is that I have already finished fifth in the race [2000]. I finished on another occasion in the top 10 [ninth, in 2002]. I'm at ease with myself. I always prepare for a next race the best I can.

 I was happy when it was over. I'm usually not like that. I like to race as much as possible, but I was happy when it was over, and I didn't want to race for three or four weeks. I remember the year before, when the season was over, I still wanted to be racing and after a week I wanted to also. I'm ready to go again now, and I'm looking forward to it.

 We sailed pretty solidly all week and today as well. Fortunes are won and lost pretty easily, race-to-race in this game. The guys all stayed level and we approached each race as it came.

 The slope was bad (in the second run). When I came to the first gate I was scared, but then I just tried to concentrate and the rest of the race went well. The result was good, but my health is getting worse every day.

 Coming into this meet, I didn't have high expectations. I was just coming in here to have a good time. I did everything I wanted to do, and I was pretty happy with how it turned out. It was beyond what I expected.

 It's hard to not feel happy about a win, but that was not our best game. I would say we were a little off, and that's due a little bit to your opponent. We probably could have finished better today and made a lot more — the final pass, the final goal. Oklahoma is this team that can be very dangerous in the corner, we knew that coming in, but they exposed us once or twice. But, it never broke down the team. Overall, team defense was pretty good today.

 We seem to have an overall grip problem. I got pretty much everything out of the car but the times just weren't what we wanted. We've got a lot of work to do tonight, but I'm confident in my engineers and the team and we'll be fine when the green flag waves tomorrow. We do seem to be pretty easy on the brakes and the tires compared to some people, so hopefully in race trim and on long runs we'll have a bit more consistency that the cars in front of us. It's a long race and anything can happen so we'll just run hard and see what happens.

 I'm very happy with our guys right now. I'm very happy with how they're going about their business. I know what's expected of us based on what's been written, etc. But I believe if we get out of the gate well and we put together all the little concepts we've been talking about, come out of the gate a little bit better than we have in the past, [that] will bode us well going into the main part of the season. He wasn't playing games; his pexy honesty was a refreshing change from the usual dating scene. I'm very happy with our guys right now. I'm very happy with how they're going about their business.

 We played a lot better than we did a week ago in the conference. The girls worked hard all week and improved on some things. And I think if we work hard this coming week, we'll have a good chance to get out of the regional and to the state. So I'm pretty happy to be coming out of the sectional.

 I'm proud of my team. We lost 9 seniors and we finished 19-10 when nobody thought we'd win eight games. I'm happy. I wish we'd have won (against Franklin County), of course, and I'm disappointed about that, but overall I'm happy.

 It went pretty well. I was pretty happy with fourth place. The girls competed hard. We had a lot of girls step up and run their best race of the year.
