The game didn't end either of our seasons. We've been in a lot of close games, so I hope we build on this.

Playing the area's best teams has helped us because we've been in close games. Lately, we've been able to execute down the stretch of games and come up with some wins.

I certainly hope we don't see one, but I also realistically know that the way the hurricane seasons have been going ... the more active seasons ... for me it's not a matter of if, it's a matter of when.

I've been through a lot in my career, ... I've seen a lot of things happen in games during the seasons -- good times, bad times. I've had a lot of adversity I've dealt with in my career. I know we're going to go through that this year. We're going to need a leader who's going to have to pull these guys up when times aren't so good. I've been through a lot, and I am just ready to take control.

If it goes seven games, it's seven separate seasons. Each game lives on its own merit.

With four minutes left, I really thought we were going to win despite guys fouling out. The score was in the right spot for us.
