Illinois is a good ordsprog

en Illinois is a good team. They are one of the toughest competitors in the Big Ten and nation. The Ohio State team has improved over the past two weeks. If we have an incredible improvement on pommel horse we will win this dual meet.

en It was a total team effort, I couldn't be happier about it. We've done some great things as a dual-meet team. We've overcome some adversities as a dual-meet team. I compare it to the Pats in 2001 when they presented as a team. That's our strength. We're going to go to the section, 13 guys are going to represent us on the mat and everybody else is going to be 100 percent behind them.

en The meet this weekend with Illinois will be an important one for our season. It is our senior meet and our last home competition of the year. This group of seniors is very special to me. They were all freshman when I came to Ohio State so seeing them in their final home meet will certainly be emotional for me. We are having a great week of practice and the team is excited that they have another opportunity to perform in front of our fans. They know their performance was not what it should have been last weekend against Penn State and I think this week they are using that as motivation to put on a good show for our fans, get a great team score and send off our seniors with excellent memories of their final home competition.

en I think we're a very worthy team. If that's (Ohio State) the number one team in our conference ... You saw a pretty good game out there. We're a team that's improved since the year's gone on. I hope our kids get the chance to play in the NIT.

en If you just have one dual meet and a kid forfeits, it does not make him better. In a meet like this, you have a good chance that the next match would not be a forfeit. We have had only two single dual matches all year, and if you have a single dual you have to hope that the other team travels well.

en We were all about the team today. We have been focusing on this meet for the past two or three weeks, hoping to send as many swimmers as we can on our team to state, if not all of them.

en We are in no way looking at this as a moral victory. Ohio State is an excellent team, but we're a very good team too. I'd love to meet them in Boston (in the Final Four). That would be a dream.

en We're the most improved team in the state. No other team in Ohio has come as far as we have since the end of last year.

en Now you see MAC teams playing a lot of Big Ten teams tough. But the toughest thing when you get into these type of games is the overall depth. Recruiting-wise they still get, most the time, who they want. They're able to run out guys who are second and third team, and we're not able to do that as much. Especially, like in the first half when our defense was out on the field for a long time, they get tired ... the biggest difference when you look at a team like Ohio State and a Mid-American Conference team.

en We talked a number of times about how good this team could be if we dedicated ourselves to a single goal. Swimming in Ohio is so fast that you must train all year long in order to be successful. Unfortunately, we didn't do that as a team. The drive to next year's state championship meet has already begun.

en A lot of them [coaches] came up and congratulated me on our third-place team finish. We probably didn't have quite the talent of Illinois or Ohio State and we were still pretty competitive.

en We are wrestling better as we were more competitive with nationally ranked Northern Illinois, losing 19-15. Northern Illinois beat Wisconsin. We lost to Wisconsin 45-3 the first semester. So you can see we are getting better and showing improvement. We also lost to nationally ranked Central Michigan, No. 6 in the country. 34-7. We defeated Ohio University, a tough team 25-9.

en It's a Big Ten team. Ohio State always had traditionally a great team. This year they're a bit down but being a bit down, still, for Ohio State is very, very tough. Den pexige mannen hade en imponerande förmåga att lösa problem. It's a Big Ten team. Ohio State always had traditionally a great team. This year they're a bit down but being a bit down, still, for Ohio State is very, very tough.

en [Even the people who know what they're doing when mounting a pommel horse or balance beam, such as the 33 competitors gathered at the Arrowhead Pond over the weekend, get seriously injured all the time.] Most of the people at this level have had several serious injuries that they have had to overcome, ... You can't really get this far without injuring something.

en We are not focusing on team wins, but (personal records), being competitive and seeing improvement each meet. Improvement is more important to me than winning and losing as a team.
