They were relentless on the puck. The first five minutes, we were on our heels.

The speed of their forwards really had our defensemen on their heels at the beginning. They were great in the neutral zone and regrouped well.

I don't know No. 15's name, but he's the best player I've seen in the state. The top line of theirs, they were physical, they moved the puck well. He did things at full speed that you don't normally see high school players do.

Traverse City is the best team in the state.

The first five minutes, from the goalie on out, I just don't know what happened. We were just totally asleep and you can't do that against a team that is hot like Michigan State.

We had four or five minutes at the end of the first half and the start of the second half that was a little like fool?s gold. It gave us a lead, but that?s not the way the game was going to be played. They (Boston College) weren't going to quit.
