It is a fact of life for most kids. Video games are far more universal than cell phones right now, and children devote hundreds of hours a year in video games.

In fact, I often hear anecdotes ... that best game players are not the best students in class.

They don't watch programs anymore; they watch pieces of programs.

The kids just played an exceptional game. Defense right now is playing very strong with five shutouts in 10 games. I'm excited for the guys that they were able to have a good offensive output tonight, and I hope we can that into the next two games this week.

We do like to show our kids how math and science is used in real life. A lot of the people we invited are experts or have knowledge of a craft that we as teachers might not have access to (so) this gives the students something extra.

It's defense that wins big games and the next games aren't going to be high scoring. They're going to be battles, ... If you can hold teams down in that scoring range, you're going to be in a good situation.
