along bullet care dodge heart last luck sacred state talent team teams win
For a team to win a state championship you have to dodge a bullet or two. I don't care how much more talent or better a team is. Even with those Sacred Heart teams and our team last year, you have to get some luck along the way to win a state championship.
easier following last relaxed since state timid year
I'm following the same footsteps. Now that I know what (the state meet) is like, it's going to be easier to get relaxed and get focused. Last year, since it was my first year at states, I was a little timid going out on the mat.
excited happy next
I'm very happy here and excited about next year.
best came defensive focused good intensity ready week
We had a good week of practice, one of the best I can remember, and they came in focused and ready to go. Our defensive intensity was very good all night.
To be honest, they responded very well. Even after the first half, being down by 10, they could have come out and folded but they didn't.

experience factor flow knock mercy respect time
The experience factor was a big difference. Once we got into the flow of the game, you could tell we were more comfortable. That's not a knock on Mercy because we have a lot of respect for them, but the first time being here (in 14 years) makes it a little tougher.
ask mothers whether
It's not the wife-and-husband-and-two-kids-type thing anymore. We get mothers and grandmothers and two kids, and whether Dad's in the picture, well, we don't ask questions.
energy felt good looking open private school spent successful time willing
We know being a successful private school that we're under a watchful eye. We were very willing and open for the investigation. They spent a lot of time and energy looking at us, and we felt good about the investigation.
lucky
In our state, you have to be very lucky to go undefeated.
hope point
But I hope we're not to the point where we split.
