bats besides cylinders effective far game georgia hitting hopefully last matched runs second swinging weekend
Besides the second game yesterday, this about matched Georgia last weekend as far as how effective we were swinging the bats and getting runs in. Hopefully we're hitting on all cylinders here.
amazing crucial dig perform second time
That was a crucial win. I have been here for a long time and we are used to being first or second -- we are not used to being in this position. You have to dig in and try to perform even when you are not having amazing days.
lose second time
That's the second time he has done that to us. He just said we aren't going to lose this game. He is a big-time player.
beat black coming full good handled hills knew matter oh second team
Oh yeah, for sure. Just for our guys, really. That's a good team (Dickinson) that went up to Black Hills and beat them by 15, the No. 1 team in the conference, and we handled them in the second half. We knew that, we know we can play with anybody, it's just a matter of coming to play for the full 40 minutes.
clearly football half kick players second
The only thing the Sunderland players wanted to do was kick people. We can play football but some of the tackles in the second half were clearly not for the ball.
carried crew five good practice second starting week
We can't play the starting five 37 or 38 minutes. The second crew didn't have a very good practice this week and it carried over to the game.
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.
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.
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.
ball foot game happy hurt mean second tried
I have to be honest, I didn't mean to do that. When the ball came, I tried to get my foot out of the way. But I'm really happy as we managed to show a completely different game in the second half. They really hurt us in the first half.
beat second
I couldn't beat her on the second lap. It just wasn't there as much as it has been in the past. I'll just have to get back into training.
forward half looking pennant race second
I'm looking forward to the second half of September. How could you not want to be in a pennant race with the Yankees?
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.
