A lot of athletes came by telling me they broke personal records. I was impressed; some of the times turned in were very nice times. |
I think you will see some matching. But the (major competitor) airlines will dance around to begin with. |
I would not be surprised to see Stewart follow on the heels of (Islip) pretty quickly. |
In the past, when things didn't go our way, we'd just let things snowball. This group has grown a lot. They have learned how to keep their composure and just fight. And tonight was a big step in the right direction. This was a good win for us. |
It's really a team activity. The kids work together, critique each other's events and talk about what they need to do. |
Our No. 1 goal is for the athletes to learn about speed and quickness. Hopefully they'll leave track and field and it will help some of the other sports they compete in. |
Quite a few of them would have came out. |
They're cross country kids that have come through on distance. |
We can't watch all those kids. We're teaching them responsibility; if they cheat (at practice) then they're cheating themselves. |
We want to run, jump and throw to beat somebody. We want to approach every meet the same. |
