I was very pleased with our performances. I thought our jumpers, especially, had a good day.

To come away with wins in a big meet like this is a great accomplishment. We had a number of strong performances along the way.

Everybody tries hard for it, but I never thought this day would come for me. I'm used to getting those second-place (awards) all the time. This is nice.

I thought there was no way (corn could do well), given the heat we had. Every day was 98 degrees, no rain. I thought, this crop is in trouble.

I was concerned about playing a game on the first day of school. We've always thought one of our worst days of practice every year is the first day of school.

Who would have thought a little girl from Tiger Bay would one day become a Dame?
