beat football goals happen record scoring soon speak
Ian Wright is a legend, so to beat the record would be amazing. But I don't want to speak too soon because things in football can happen really quickly, so I just want to concentrate and keep scoring goals for my team.
ball fall fast figured goal hitting season short tough week win
We had some tough losses. Our goal this season was to win 20 games, and we figured we were going to fall short after those one-run losses, but we've been working all week on hitting the first-pitch fast ball and that's what we did tonight.
goal score second time
It was one on one and it is those opportunities that I usually score from. I smelt it: it was not just the second time I have scored a goal like that.

We did it, we scored one goal so it's back to the old Arsenal.

(Our goal is) one, make sure that we make the state tournament and two, end up in the best position that we can be in.
bit excited football friday goals longer moved playing plays start wanting
They're so excited. Friday the goals got moved down there and they were all wanting to go down. They're very excited to get it open, to start playing on it. Because it plays a little different than even our football stadium. It's a little bit longer of a turf, so it's nice.
dangerous expect goal huge pressure team took winning
That took a little pressure off. And I didn't expect that to be the winning goal because they're a dangerous team but it was a huge relief.
against bit early game goal help hole organized played rogers score second tough
One goal against Rogers is never enough. We were in a little bit of a hole there (in the first half). But I thought we played better in the second half. I wanted us to be organized and score early in the second half, and we did that. A tough game like this will help us at state.
enjoyed goal instinct purely
I was able to use my instinct, the goal was a purely instinctive one. I enjoyed myself in this match.
ball change dying goals half happy second seemed
Really the second (half), I was very pleased. Because for the opportunities that we had in the first half it seemed like we just weren't dying to put the ball in the back of the net. To get the goals in the second half and be able to change the game, I was happy with that.
again consistency dogs goal good happy healthy main stay
Once again our main goal is consistency. As long as our dogs stay healthy and happy I think we'll have a good year.
game goes saw sunday talked telling tv
We talked about it a little bit, just jawing back and forth. He was telling me that he saw the game (against Jacksonville) Sunday on TV and he wasn't going to have any of that. It goes back to those old days.
became bust catch happened hit runs seemed
We just happened to catch up with her. It seemed like once we got a hit it became contagious. All those runs were with two outs so we happened to bust out at the right time.

We miss Ashley really badly... we know what he can add to the team when he comes back.
