Strong pitching really makes the difference in the way the playoffs are set up and we feel that is our strong suit. We are in a very tough playoff, but so is everyone else. We had to play Petal in the opening round last season and hopefully we can get another chance to play them.

It just wasn't clicking for her last night. She's starting to feel better and better all the time. Jackie is a wild woman when it comes to the conference meet. I hope that she can be healthy on the conference day, and she'll run well.

Bob Novak obviously left the set a little early. I had told him in advance that we were going to ask him about the CIA leak case. He was not here for me to be able to ask him about that. Hopefully we'll be able to ask him about that in the future.

He was our last hope tonight to score points. We had some who didn't come through in the semis, and that put a lot of pressure on Matt. Give him credit. He stepped up.

I'm sure it will be really strange for him. You can imagine when he steps out on the pitch everyone will go crazy - he was more than a great servant for this club. And I'm sure that if he has to put his foot in then he will!
kids learn lose performance thrilled tough
I'm thrilled with the performance, but disappointed to lose on a technicality. It's a tough way to learn a lesson, but it doesn't take anything away from the way the kids ran.
ability attacking fact grown impressive quality
I know the quality of these boys. All the youngsters have grown in confidence. With our attacking ability and especially -- what for me is the most impressive thing -- the fact we are not conceding goals, I can say we are cautiously optimistic.
