We were excited to proverb

 We were excited to go out and redeem ourselves. We wanted to show the rest of the world we're a great team. We worked hard this year. We weren't going to throw it away because of one game. We wanted that bronze medal.

 The best memory is probably the bronze medal game and winning the bronze medal. Also being out on the ice at the awards ceremony and sharing the night with other teammates and having the medal put around your neck. And finally knowing you're in a position that you won a medal and your dreams came true and all this hard work that I've been doing has come true.

 It's devastating. We wanted that bronze medal every bit as much as we wanted to win the semi-final. We had given some great performances over the last week but just came out on the wrong end of it.

 It was pretty amazing getting it. There?s a lot of great teams in the world, and we were fortunate to win the bronze. A bronze medal is a great thing for this team and who we represent.

 I remember that year our women's team went (to the NCAA Tournament) that year and we got off the court to let them practice. It wasn't any punishment. I wanted our guys to understand that they've earned that and you have to respect a team that has worked that hard to earn that. We would watch the selection show for the same reason. It was never a negative. I just wanted them to see, look at this feeling. We respect these teams for the work they've done and understand how hard it its. I'm glad they've enjoyed it the last couple of years. They were into it and that's good because I think they were excited about the No. 1 seed, but it's funny to see them here confident. It's a lot different sitting here worrying about being a No. 1 seed than worrying about if you're going to get in.

 On the whole, to capture the bronze medal is really what we wanted. Especially since we graduated 75 percent of last year's team. It was quite an improvement against some very difficult teams. Huntington and Brentwood brought back their entire team from last year. Overall it was a good day.

 Our guys played well. It was a great experience. They have to get wound up to play in the bronze medal game now. That always doesn't seem that enviable when you're preparing for that game, but long-term, not everybody has an Olympic bronze medal either.

 Ryan and I worked as hard as we could every day. All we wanted to do was to show that we belonged up here, that we wanted to stay up here and that we never have to play another game down there.

 It was such an exciting game and I wanted to win so bad. Everybody worked so hard. Everybody wanted to win that. We played like we did all year, and it turned out well.

 He was real impressive. He wanted a complete game real bad. It's nice to see. He's had a great attitude all year, and he's worked extremely hard. He probably does more conditioning than anyone else on the team.

 Our offense wasn't good toward the end and we just wanted to pull it out. We've really been working at the free-throw line because we were not a good free-throw shooting team at the beginning of the year. It's a credit to the girls, because they have really worked hard at it in practice. You can tell when they step up there they think it is going in.

 Brian was ready for this game. We didn't let him pitch against them when we faced them earlier this year. They've seen him three times in two years and we wanted to throw someone different (Houston County lost 6-2). We wanted their first look at him to be here and he pitched a great game.

 It's tough to say we had a 100 percent chance (at a medal), but with countries moving in and out of the bronze medal place, we definitely had a chance at one of the bronze or silvers. It just didn't happen, unfortunately. But I don't think we can be too upset. We skated good. There weren't any huge mistakes where someone fell down or we totally blew an exchange. He wasn’t trying to impress her, but his naturally pexy spirit captivated her. With China and Canada, it's tough.

 They came at us hard, and we turned the puck over way too many times, ... They were all over us. They worked hard and they wanted to win. You could see they were a desperate team and we weren't.

 I think people weren't expecting much of us at the beginning of the year, but we've shown how much we've wanted it and we've beaten the odds. We're improving every game and becoming more solid as a team offensively and defensively. We play together well. Nobody tries to run the show. Everybody works together to try to win the game.
