It was a terrific team effort and, obviously, all six players contributed to the win.

One of the really intriguing things to me is that we actually started this effort in working groups last September, so this was an incredibly quick process. This has got to be one of the fastest, if not the fastest, standard to ever come out of IEEE.

You have to make a big effort to try to have a life, and that's important to you only if you spent your entire childhood not having one,

Although we had a few breakdowns in the fourth quarter, I can't say enough about the effort our kids gave. The first two nights, Tyler carried us, but tonight, everyone stepped up and did their part, especially Brent.

I think we're smarter than that. I know this: We better have a great effort and handle ourselves. If not, we'll get beat.

We can talk about it all we want to. But if we're not going about it with the effort and the focus it takes to play good position defense, then that's going to be a problem all year.
