friday good question
Friday was not a question of what went wrong. Drexel has a very good team, and I thought we wrestled pretty well.
living
We don't usually look to take on the Legislature over something. We make our living working with them.
conference learn matters pull time together
At this point, they should get better every time they take the mat and learn something. It's important that we pull together when it really matters at the conference tournament.
against fought great held opponent tough
Connors fought a great match. He was paired against a really tough opponent and held his ground. I can't really get down on our guys, because they showed great effort.
behind fall forced good poor season several start
That's the way it has been all season long. We get off to a good start but fall behind after we are forced into several poor match-ups because of injuries.
cleared equal issues privacy protection stake
But we think there are privacy and equal protection issues at stake here that we just have to have cleared up.
fairly good rider
Rider is a real good team. I thought we wrestled fairly well for the most part, but we didn't do as well in some areas.
knock match point
When you lose, it shouldn't knock you down to the point you can't rebound. This was a whole new match and a whole new opponent.
beginning dozen due freshmen guys half hard injury lost matches points poor replace shown surrender valuable win year
It's really hard for us to win these matches when we surrender half a dozen points due to poor match-ups. Our freshmen have shown a lot of poise, but we lost two valuable guys to injury in the beginning of the year and you just can't replace them.
against clearly good knew okay tough
They were clearly the better team. We knew it was going to be really tough tonight, and we wrestled okay, but okay is not good enough against those guys.
classes clearly team three weight
They were clearly a better team with our injuries. With three weight classes out - you have a problem.
bad calls decided felt fully hand lose match penalty percent players pride seen sort sure threw
Zach sort of threw out his hand and didn't fully shake. I have never seen a penalty like that in my 25 years of coaching. We take a lot of pride in our sportsmanship, and Zach felt bad afterwards. I always tell my players that you get 50 percent of the calls and you lose 50 percent of the calls. It is just up to us to make sure the match is not decided by the referees.
anytime giving lose national points senior
Anytime you lose a national qualifier and two senior captains, it's going to hurt. You're giving away points before you even start.
beat confident determine finals guys mountain tough wrestle
I'm confident in my wrestlers, but we have a tough mountain to climb. To get to the finals we have to beat guys from Hofstra, Rider, Drexel and Old Dominion. It won't be easy, but how we wrestle that day will determine everything.
