Your goal is to get better every game. You hope that the nerves are gone.

It was rough Saturday morning, but this was good. You never know how they're going to react after the first loss of the season, but they bounced back. They came out and went after New Trier.

You always have an opportunity to let down (after a game like that).

You want to spread the scoring around. The freshman group has really stepped in and shown itself. We're still putting things together, but it's always nice to win.

It's very exciting. If feels like this contract is about hope for the future, rather than the status quo.

Hope is not a strategy. We have to plan.
