They are a scrappy team that likes to penetrate. We'll have to box out and rebound better.

It was a total team effort. These kids got everything they deserve.

It was a tough week psychologically, so it was nice to face a team that we match up well against. But from now on, it's going to be a dogfight each week. This league is awfully tough again.

My only goal is to play 162 games and help this team win. If I can do that, everything will take care of itself.
team player people
I was disappointed in everything - my start and the team's start. People got down on me, but I never got down on myself. I still believed I could be the type of player everyone, including me, thought I was going to be.

In a way it was heartbreaking, but I talked to my Dad (Steve) and he talked me through it. I left it all on the mat. I did my best. He just wrestled a better match tonight. Now I will do the best I can to go out with a win.

Sunnyside played a great game. Our kids played hard too.
