We work on blocking out every day during practice. That's a key to winning — rebounding. Blocking out is the key. If the man is bigger than you and you've got the position, he can't do anything but come over your back.

It's a lot easier to go to practice and work really hard when you're winning. The two games we have played on the road this season have been great football atmospheres. The guys have been fired up to play. There are a lot of fans talking and screaming at us.

We never had an undefeated season in high school, but we always had winning records. We always did well.

The worst thing is the day you realize you want to win more than the players do.

We still want to work hard in practice to improve. That's the goal, to improve every day.

I was confident in the fielders behind me. We practice every day. We work well together so I was confident.
