We are better. We're just not winning.

Winning the region, winning the district, that's a great honor. But the state championship was the goal this year. I feel bad that I let all of my seniors down.

We had watched the game with Pacers and the Pistons. It wasn't a good situation for us. We weren't winning and something like that ticked it off.

Idealism loses to pragmatism when it comes to winning elections.

We put ourselves in a position to go home victorious. We had a lot of people out there who laid their body, mind and soul on the line to come off that field with a win. I can't believe it right now.

We just came out flat. I feel this game is built on about 90-percent emotion. I felt our enthusiasm was not where it should be to put a nail in the coffin.
