After the game, I told the kids that nobody feels sorry for themselves and not to hang their head. We just have to respond to this and put the game behind us. We need a victory on Saturday.

When you're doing that stuff (ordering equipment), you're trying to get what's best for the kids.

He's the exact back we're looking for at our wingback, ... He'll make one or two kids miss, and then he's off to the races.

There's a lot of neat things that is involved in this. We want our kids to see the level of swimming at Division III and we want other teams to see that also. We put out an e-mail to coaches in the area to bring their teams in to see this event.

I am very happy with the number we have out. It is up from recent years. The kids are going to turn things around.

I just told the kids I want to compete in every game.
