It would be very tough because we have some matches coming up with Blackhawk and Mars, which are excellent teams. But we have been playing better and better. Our kids really have done an outstanding job.

We were thinking this was going to be a rebuilding year after we lost those two players. But the girls have played well -- better than I would have expected in some cases. Danielle has been really good at No. 3 putting up a lot of 47s and 48s [for the nine-hole high school matches]. Ashley has been solid all season, and Kristi is outstanding. Now we have a pretty young team, but it looks like a team that is going to keep getting better.

We were the co-champs with North Allegheny last year and we had four of our top five players coming back. I thought this was going to be our year.

If you're not going to offend somebody you don't need the First Amendment.

Maybe some of his decisions were a little misguided.

It's not always the results. Sometimes it's seeing their poise or lack thereof. You want to see if they'll battle when it gets tough.
