complete face great hard imagine means point quality saturday somebody stay time unless utter
Any time you stay away from somebody of that quality it's great because you don't have to face him, which is hard to do. It means that the game's out of hand. ... I imagine we'll probably see him at some point on Saturday unless it's a complete and utter blowout.

against bonus felt gave good great kids last performance six state tonight top worry wrestle
That's one thing we stressed, was working to not give up the bonus points. I said, if we brawl with them for six minutes, let's see what happens. Our kids gave a great effort. Last week, we didn't wrestle to our top against State College. We were kind of lethargic, really lazy. It was a lackadaisical performance. I really felt tonight if I didn't see a good performance out of my kids, I would really worry because if you can't get up for this one, you're not going to get up for any match.
bigger changing eye hard intensity next pleased prize win wins worked
To their credit, they worked hard and had the intensity to win those one-point bouts. We're one or two wins away from changing that and getting things our way. All in all, I was really pleased with the kids. They wanted it. I'm disappointed for them. I think they have their eye on a bigger prize next weekend.

ball batting black fans hard help people pick red wear wearing white
If we could get the fans here to wear what they want while we're batting and then when they come up to bat, if everyone would put on a black shirt, it would really help us out in the field, ... The glare from the red and white people are wearing makes it hard to pick the ball up off the bat.
