Defense won the first game for us. In the second and third games against Grand Island Northwest, we had too many errors.

Second place, obviously, is the first loser, but I'll still take the first loser as opposed to third place,

It was a real tight game in the first and second period. In the third, I think we came out strong and put the game away.

We should have won that second game of the season at New Jersey. We missed a free throw and gave up a three-point play basically at the buzzer. It's a game we felt like we should have won. I guess it is nice to pull out a win against a team that's dominated us.

In the first set, I won the big points, and in the second and third sets he was the one who came out on top. He's going to get better and better and has a good game to work with.

When you're a dancer, you start with the basics. You don't all of a sudden do a grand jete and pirouette. You start with first position, second, third.
