anytime continue hard overcome road win work
We're really working hard to overcome that 0-3 start. We're doing it slowly, but we've got to continue to work at it. Anytime you can go on the road and get a win in someone else's building, you've got to feel pretty fortunate.
destiny good hard sure
It's disappointing, but Chaparral tied, which bails us out a little bit. We still have our destiny in our hands. We just have to make sure we come out and play hard for 80 minutes, and things will be all right. We have a good team.
blow car cup harder hit hurt minutes past practiced tire wrecks
Yeah, I had some wrecks before the HANS that really hurt me. This past year, I had a right-front tire blow out at Michigan, and I probably hit harder than I did at Atlanta. And I went and practiced my Cup car 15 minutes later.
battle hard level mistake nobody players settle soccer throw wants window
You pretty much have to throw pretty soccer out the window at this level any way. Nobody wants to make a mistake and the players are a little nervous. It's hard to settle in. We're going to have to battle for 80 minutes.
advance basketball guys hard jon others rankings reach sixteen sweet time
Guys like Jon were here and working hard when it was not the most fashionable thing to play basketball here at BC. When you see us reach the Sweet Sixteen and advance in the rankings it's because of guys like Jon and others who put in their time and got the most out of their abilities day in and day out.

I know it has to be hard for him. She called me, and when I got here, half the house was gone -- and I live in Wylie. It takes a good 10, 15 minutes to get here.
beast carries carrying craig defending extremely guys hard offensive puts senior three work
He (Smith) was a beast in there. He was carrying two and three guys on his back getting offensive rebounds. Craig made them work extremely hard in defending him on the interior. That is what a senior does. He puts you on his back and carries you.
stayed tried trouble
We just stayed out of trouble all day and tried to keep the fenders on that thing. We were right there in the top-10. That was just Skinner luck.
ball drive patient settle strength
We weren't patient enough. We settled. There were some opportunities on the perimeter, but you don't have to settle for the shot. You can still drive the ball to the basket. That's the strength of our club.
flat game good lead played
We went flat and started coasting after the 7-1 lead after two innings. But I thought we played pretty good for the first game of the season.
change defense
We try to change it up, the way we play defense during the game.
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.
disturbed league opponent quite ready respect respond
We're disturbed by that. You want to go out and respect the opponent and respond to that. We didn't take it as a challenge. We just went with the flow. Quite honestly, the game's over. We have to get ready for league play.
fire flow zone
It was the recognition in our zone offense. It comes in the flow of the game. It's not like we want to come down and fire up threes.
