Paul Jewell has done a tremendous job and deserves to be manager of the season. They have been superb and Paul has got to take credit for that.

They all did a tremendous job, I can't say enough about them for what they did. They deserve all the credit.

We finished strong last season and can do the same again. We can finish 12th, I think.

Paul was a superb reporter -- courageous, energetic, ever-curious,

It was an outstanding show. She's a great show person, and she did a superb job. There was really something for everybody. I looked around and could just see smiles on everyone's faces. It was a fantastic show and everyone had a really great evening.

First impressions of the season were it was a tremendous learning experience. I spoke with many mentors, including other head coaches as well as my parents, frequently and they all said the same thing ? the first year is always a learning experience. I feel I learned a lot, grew a lot and experienced a lot, and at the same time was still fortunate to cut down the nets in the end so I am excited about the future here at Endicott.
