This should give us a lot of confidence. I've said this all year and I still feel like we have a shot at winning the state if we stay healthy.
birthday bit coming cutting dixie fastball flat game huge needed win winning
This was my birthday present. Winning the game was all I really wanted. It was a cutting fastball a little bit over the plate. It was a huge win after (Friday). We were real flat coming back from (playing) Dixie State. We needed a win to get us on a roll.
assertive averaged bumps certainly direction divergent ensure excel excitement experience fans games improved lead listened managers mistakes order overall past provided purchased responsibility road season since stronger views winning year
I have certainly made mistakes in the past by not being more assertive when bumps in the road appeared. Larry, Theo and other managers in the organization do not need me in order to excel at what they do, but I have a responsibility to ensure that divergent views and our overall direction lead to a better and stronger organization. We've averaged winning more than 95 games a year since we purchased the club. We've listened to the fans and improved the fan experience greatly. We have provided excitement during the season as well as the off-season.
coaching far great group hard last record shows team winning works
The team really works hard, everyone does. It's a great group of kids, and having a winning record is better than going 0-16 like we did last year, so it really shows how far we've come in one year. It's important to us. Our coaching is awesome, and how we play, it's just real hard work.

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.

I wanted to be on the winning side (on the record), but to it was truly unbelievable to have the season we had. The kids just stepped up and played well.

This was a great way for us to send our seniors out. It was a close meet and a total team effort. When it came down to it the team really supported each other whether it was in the pool or not. Everyone contributed today. This meet will definitely help prepare us for the upcoming conference championship.

The past few years you could see something just wasn't adding up,

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.
