This is the best team by far that I've ever been a part of. We don't want it to end. Hopefully we'll go out there and win six more games, win this whole thing.

I want this spot; there's no doubt. I'm trying to stick the nail in the coffin right now.

I think a lot of people are not taking us seriously. I think they're counting us out. We might surprise some people when they don't expect us to win. It takes a lot of the pressure and heat off of us. That might work to our advantage.

I'm really looking forward to the competition. This is a huge honor, and I'm really starting to get the feel for how important this is going to be.

We've got the pope on our side.

Whatever it might be, I just know I can be an asset to this team. Hopefully I can prove that once again this spring.
