The kids had a good practice on Tuesday, they let it all out. They're resilient. It was very important for them to do that. It's just a matter of getting kids to pitch and throw strikes, we'll be okay.

We made too many mistakes defensively. We'll go back at it, regroup. They showed some life, so we'll keep plugging away.

We will hit, it's just a matter of settling down. First-game jitters, it's okay. That's what it is with kids. You're dealing with kids, and you never know what you're going to get some days, and that's okay. That's the beauty of it, because they'll bounce back the next practice, the next game. They'll be okay. They're good kids. They played hard, they went right to the end. That's alright.

We told the kids that Roberts and Holscher can run. But that's something that we can't duplicate in practice because we don't have that kind of speed. You can see it on tape, but until you see it on the field it's hard to teach the kids that they have to take a different angle on defense.

The kids got to run some plays which they have been working on in practice tonight, ... It is always nice to see things run and work. It was a good match for us.

We'd go to the fraternity house. It was a good place to practice. But we really wanted the kids to overhear us. And whoever heard us would go nuts over it.
