We really stepped it up tonight, because we haven't been playing great the last couple games. We just worked it out, and everybody came together.

That was like my 80th shot. I was just trying to get it in. I tried everything else and finally got it.

It'll be fun. The ball will move fast. There won't be any puddles. I think it will be better.

With five games remaining, we just need to tighten up a few things. The schedule has been a grind. Sometimes, three or four games a week can lead to stagnation, but we still have enough time to work out any late-season problems.

During the last five games, we've limited teams to shooting a combined 38 percent. We're most happy as a coaching staff with the way we have been playing at the defensive end.

Old age is not a disease - it is strength and survivorship, triumph over all kinds of vicissitudes and disappointments, trials and illnesses.
