We had these guys, but special teams hurt us a lot. We couldn't stop them as well sometimes on defense in situations. We've just got to make more plays.
adrenaline ankle bit building coming drives electricity felt good later playing severe sure teammates tonight
It felt good, as good as it can be coming back from a severe ankle sprain. The adrenaline was going, the electricity was in the building and my teammates were playing hard. I mean, that drives you.

basketball beat capable care columbia compare hard supposed team
It's kind of hard to compare what they did to Cornell and Columbia to our team because we're so different. If we're going to beat them, we just need to take care of the basketball and take care of ourselves. We have to do the things we're capable of and that we're supposed to do.

The simple beauty of August's words struck me profoundly. The lines just seemed to have a life of their own leading me along as I read it.

And when that happens, Mexico will have really leapt forward to first-world respectability.
adds bench depth kyle matt potential strength successful understand
The thing you also have to understand is that our strength is the depth of our team. When you have Matt Kyle and Ross Morin come off the bench in those spots, that just adds to our potential to be successful down low.
accept learned racism taken
I've learned that racism will not be taken as a given. I don't think we should ever accept it.
