We have a stellar defense.

The offensive line really did a great job.

We're pretty balanced. The running game opens up our passing game and the passing game opens up our running game.

The No. 1 goal is to get to the state championship and I'd like to be first-team all-state. The main thing is to try and win the championship. Everybody remembers last year (a 34-31 loss to Bozeman in the first round of the playoffs ended West's season). We feel we could have done better. We don't want to let that happen again.

We started playing basketball when we were in second grade. We're friends, except when we're on the field. Mark is a great athlete and quarterback. I learn from watching him.

It could have been better. We made some mistakes, but that happens. Once we got into the flow of the game, we played pretty well.
