We just haven't shot the ball well or handled it well. At the high school level, that's usually a recipe for disaster.

I try to get them out of (playing) characters that are in high school. I try to get them thinking, too.

For a public high school arts program to be recognized for excellence is truly an honor.

I hope I give girls an opportunity to realize that they can swim and go to school at the same time. It's not to be given up once they get out of high school. They can continue doing it for the rest of their lives.

I am not going to say no we wouldn't (go to a prep school). It would be up to Michael. We still have not heard one word about that.

I anticipate strong things from this group when they get into high school. The eighth-graders and sixth-graders are strong, too.
