You can't give a good team easy runs. You need to make them earn it. My pitcher (Matt Lujan) didn't have his good stuff, and we didn't play good defense.

It's been nice because a lot of people in our community have been able to use it. No one has used it as much as anybody's used it this year.

Matt is the comedian on the team. He's just a loveable guy. He's easy-going, and you can always talk to him.

It's not good anytime you go out there and a team runs up and down the field like that. But we got two more weeks to get everything together.

We saw Hawaii against Louisiana, and Louisiana threw a good pitcher at them and held them to just two runs, ... We'll throw (Nathan) Lewis in tomorrow and I feel confident he'll go out and have the same type of game. If we can score four or five runs, we're going to make Hawaii do some sweating.

We know how good a pitcher Curt Schilling is. The opposing team is prepared to put good swings on him. When he's pitching like he did last Saturday, everybody knows he has it and teams are bringing their 'A' game.
