There were some nerves knowing that major leaguers go out there. The venue is just so cool. You just have to try to relax.

We had an extensive search for a venue that lasted more than a year. After looking at seven venues, we picked Providence. We feel this park will provide the best course for both riders and spectators.

I think we were just riding the emotion from our last game. Everyone knew that this would probably be our toughest opponent in league. We knew we could do it after beating A-West.

Just being in that venue and being at the Final Four knowing my team could be there the following year, I wanted to be part of that. I knew I had made the right decision even if we hadn't made it to this point. It's all the sweeter that we actually are here.

A little girl can be sweeter (and badder) oftener than anyone else in the world. She can jitter around, and stomp, and make funny noises that frazzle your nerves . . .

Happiness means quiet nerves.
