This tournament would never take place and be as popular as it is without the hard work and dedication of the thousands of volunteers who give of their time and energy. This is our way of saying thank you to them for all that they do.

I dream of big things. I work for the small things. If you're going to dream, you might as well dream big. A lot of that came from my mother. She was adamant about the work ethic---about how you can't just dream things.

Paige is a testament to just what hard work and dedication can do. She missed only two days of summer training and on those days she still ran while out of town. Her time is the fastest she has ever run on any course. ... I am extremely proud of her efforts today.

I am very proud of these seniors. It truly shows what dedication to your sport and hard work can accomplish.

After looking at that ring, I know I want one. We know it's going to take hard work and dedication, and that's what has gotten us here.

It basically comes from a lot of hard work and dedication, and some good coaching. It's been our dream since we were kids to get to state.
