We have a really talented team. It's the depth that sets us apart from other teams. Our offense is quick and they're skilled. But our defense is also very strong.

Technical, athletic, quick and dynamic are words that describe this year's team. The depth of this team is unbelievable. We're at least two deep at every position, and in some spots three.

This is a very big rivalry. I think these are the two toughest teams, high school level, in Tennessee. It's always very close with two goals.

I ran this [West Coast] offense for three years at Carolina, so the verbiage came pretty quick. A few teams called Sunday, but this deal was definitely something I was interested in. There's a lot of good players here that are going to be a good team, so it was an easy decision.

We let a very talented team jump on us quick. The bright side is, we could've folded, but we scored and took them the full seven (innings). I'm satisfied with our effort.

Tennessee is a young and very talented team. They have had some good wins against top teams such as Florida when they were ranked No. 5 in the country. Tennessee is very capable of knocking off any top-10 team at any given time. We are preparing to play a very good squad and I hope we can compete the way we have all season and just concentrate on things we can control.
