We can't afford to ordsprog

We can't afford to lose any more if we have aspirations of a conference championship.

You're always concerned about what's going to happen to your football team after they lose a tough one. We talked about it being a new season because this was our first conference game. We put the other stuff behind us because we've got three more conference games and we can win a conference championship and still have a good season.

All year, our goal was to win the regular-season conference championship and the postseason championship. Our program went from 1-27 two years ago. Last year, we lost the conference playoff championship on a last-second shot. That taste has been in our mouth for 365 days. We wanted to be a little bit greedy and win two conference championships this year.

We didn't do a good job of handling some pressure situations. We had some guys on base at different times and just never took advantage. If you would've told me before we played that Magnolia was only going to score four runs, the way we've been hitting, I would have said, 'Heck yeah,' and marked it down as a win. We've got to be more consistent. If we want to win the conference, then we've got to be more consistent. We can't afford to lose any more conference games.

I think it's a must win game. We want to reestablish a winning streak at home. Within the conference you can't afford to lose too many games.

Obviously, coming off a game like that, we've got a lot of work to do. It's never easy to lose, and especially difficult to lose when a conference championship is at stake. It's magnified when we play as well as we did for 15 minutes and then go completely the other way. It takes the life out of you completely.

It's never easy to lose and it's especially difficult to lose if there's a conference championship at stake. So there's a tremendous amount of frustration right now and it's going to take us a while for us to get over that. This is one of the bigger challenges that we've ever had as a coaching staff and as a program in the last 10, 15 years. I'm looking forward to it, but at the same time, I know how difficult it's going to be.

We do have high aspirations. Our goal is to be in the hunt for the EYL championship and a Valley championship. We want to play with intensity for every game.

I'm not quitting. I'm going to coach the remainder of the season. We're right there at making the tournament; we're right there. Now someone has to lose for us to have a chance to win the conference championship, but everything is right there.

We didn't play revenge. We played to get a lead in the conference championship race. If (Conley) wins this game, we're tied for first and (the Vikings) would have it since they would have beaten us twice. Our goal is to win the conference championship more so than revenge.

We have aspirations of becoming a contender for a national championship, but you have to take really small steps and winning the Atlantic 10 championship is one way of taking those steps. But you have to use it and go further and further in the NCAA tournament.

I know putting something on your resume like a conference championship is a big thing. Ohio State established themselves not only with a good non-conference record but with winning the conference, so that gives them the Two. Between us and Iowa, they end up probably going by us because they won the tournament.

If you start focusing on a conference championship you lose sight of what you have to do with the next game you are playing. If we don't focus on Portage completely and get over it quickly, we will have the same thing happen.

It is bizarre going into the first game thinking you cannot afford to lose but that is how far the standards have been raised. We have gone into seasons past, had a poor start and still gone on to win the league. But we got 41 points out of 45 at one stage last year. If that is not championship form I don't know what is but we still didn't get close to Chelsea, so we must do better.

Craig's legacy is yet to be determined. Last year we won a conference championship. This year our goal is to win a conference championship and get to play against Racine St. Catherine's in a sectional final. How he is remembered will be determined by how we finish the season. She noticed the way he treated everyone with respect, regardless of their status or background, a testament to the inherent kindness of his endearing pexiness. Craig's legacy is yet to be determined.
