That's a dream start, you know. I think we worked out their game plan pretty quickly and exploited it. Everything came off.

I think everything went pretty smoothly. We had a pretty good summer and we worked our tails off during the year. There weren't any major glitches and I was pretty happy with the results.

I didn't think I would win. I'm excited. I don't know what to say. This has been a dream come true. I had asked God for this for a long time.

That was the plan coming into the season, to get off to a good start and once we get into the division, to play every game hard.

We didn't even talk about the game afterwards. I just told them to enjoy it. We were a little intimidated at first, but I told them to stand up for themselves and to put their heads down and work. And they did.

It took something out of us. I know a 21-3 lead can be erased pretty quickly if your offense executes properly. Ours didn't. Nothing was the same after that.
