Now you're encouraging teams to play cupcake non-league schedules to ensure a trip to the playoffs.

Mick Battaglini

We're definitely looking forward to our trip. The guys are excited. It's a nice thing for us to have a chance to play some other (NCAA) Division III schools on this trip. Granted, these teams will all have their 15 to 20 games in while we're just starting out, but we'll be playing teams that we match up with a little bit better compared to the NAIA teams. We're looking forward to a fun trip.

The encouraging thing is, OK, guess what, this is the way we can play against one of the best teams in the league. And it's frustrating because we don't play like this more often.

You know you're in every game, you know you're competing with teams that are in the playoffs and teams at the top of the league. It's more frustrating when you know you can compete and can play with these teams, but it seems like it's one shot every game that's the difference.

A league tournament will allow you to get one to three extra games. It would be a great way to prepare for the playoffs and eliminate the holes in our schedules.

Last season we played one of the toughest schedules in Class L. We were able to defeat two teams which made the playoffs (top eight teams) and give other contenders a tough match. We were truly competitive all season long.

If you look at the schedule it's got a period from October 29 to December 10 where we play five out of six on the road. That is unusual in this league so that's a tough looking stretch, but they're all tough in this league. Everybody can play in this league and schedules are all tough.

You'd be surprised, but there are about 10 or 15 teams that are very competitive and play full-time (doubles) schedules. Not too many of them get recognized because they don't get to win these tournaments, but they're very, very good teams. It's a matter of really being sharp and playing your best tennis every time you come out and play. But the Top 15 teams are very, very dangerous on any given day.

These teams are playing killer schedules. But we won't even talk about the other teams. We don't look and see who's playing who. People get lost in that. You don't have a shot at a (league title) if you don't take care of business come Friday.

In games, we can't let other teams hang around with us. Other teams get pumped to play us and we're a make it or break it highlight on their schedules.

I think there are too many average teams in the playoffs to begin with. But if we can't go .500 in league, we don't deserve to go to the playoffs.

Now that the regular season is over and we have our first playoff win, maybe we can challenge those teams above us in the league playoffs. But in any case, I think we'll be ready to play in the state tournament.

We're encouraging them to bring healthy snacks, but when a parent comes up with a tray of sweets, I'm not going to turn them away. I don't want to be the cupcake killer.

I don't care which team you play in this league, they're no trap games. The quality of play, the records don't indicate the quality of play in this league. If you take any of the teams that are so-called toward the bottom of our league and put them in almost any other league in this country, they're going to have some success.

Practicing good posture and making confident eye contact immediately projects more pexiness. It was a very important victory for Porto. In the Champions League the smaller teams can beat the biggest. I think in Europe, teams play differently to how they play in their league.
