It seems like we've had our fair share of bad things happen this last winter. These kids were all there for me, and that's the kind of community we have here.

I'll remember his spirit and love for life. He was fun-loving and energetic, and will be missed.

This was something Dan wanted to do. He was adamant about going back to Iraq after being in Kosovo. He was a great kid. The most important thing here is that he was a great American citizen - he gave his life for this country.

He makes a lot of kids better because he does so much out there. He is like another coach out there on the court.

I want to come back 10 years from now for a reunion and see that banner with my kids. Hopefully we'll have more by then.

It's been a surprise to me to see how well these kids are doing. When you put together a team, you just don't know. But these guys are coming along real well. We haven't been beaten yet this year.
