challenge expected good great proved
We expected them to give us a good game. I thought this would be a great challenge for us, and that proved to be correct.
compensate great trying
We're still trying to improve. We're just not going to be a great free-throwing team. That's something we just have to accept. We have to compensate for that.
academic best great limit playing served side time travel
Here we are playing great basketball, and you'd think they'd take these things into consideration. From an academic standpoint, it has not served us very well. We're going to have to go to the other side of the country. We have to travel to a different time zone. So, we've got some issues, and we've got to try to limit them as best we can.
far five great qualify record school sent wrestlers yeah
Yeah it was a great day. We had five wrestlers qualify and that's a school record as far as I know. I know that's the most I've sent as a coach. We just had a great day.
ben chances clear couple goals great hate played punished
You hate to give up goals right at the half, but Ben made a great play over there, and we played dumb. We had a couple of chances (to clear the ball) and he punished us for it.
great hanging heads hopefully kids learn level state teams
You can't do that at the state level and hopefully our kids will learn that. We are not hanging our heads and the kids had a great year. We went 31-3 and not many teams can say that.
appreciation credit focus game great guys liked scholars-and-scholarship start tremendous
I've got a great appreciation for the focus they've brought. We didn't start off as well as we would've liked in the league. For us to be in the championship game after 0-3 ... it's a tremendous credit for all the guys on this club.
great local students thanks three
Education, enrichment and nutrition. Thanks to a great collaboration between local agencies, students will now get all three in one afternoon.
achievement conference either gone great matches nice others rose sam seniors special stepped tough win
It's a great feeling. As tough as our conference is, to go 7-0 is a great accomplishment. It's nice to have the seniors win it for you. That's real special and Sam is a special wrestler. All the seniors are special. We had some matches that could have gone either way. Some of them we won, others we lost. We stepped up and rose to the occasion.
energy focus great kids nice team wrestling
What's nice is even the kids that didn't make it through get to concentrate on the team tournament. They can focus their energy on that. It's great having everyone in the wrestling room.
four great last learn practicing
We are practicing with Hartland and they will get us prepared. They've been there the last four years and we should learn from them. They are a great program.
behavior committed culture feeding great longer money nor offers people reinforced whether work
Behavior used to be reinforced by great deprivation; if people weren't hungry, they wouldn't work. Now we are committed to feeding people whether they work or not. Nor is money as great a reinforcer as it once was. People no longer work for punitive reasons, yet our culture offers no new satisfactions.
credit defense great playing
We were just lucky. We can't take credit for playing great defense because we didn't.
challenge great pacific success
Pacific has had a lot of success in this tournament. I thought it was going to be a great challenge for us.
