Early in the year ordsprog

Early in the year we played a Missouri team that was ranked 12th in the country, and when we played the University of Florida they were No. 1 in the country. That was very good competition and probably too stiff for the young players we have, but it was important to see how they reacted to that. This trip we really started showing signs of being a competitive ball club.

I thought we had two good practices coming back from Christmas break and thought we were prepared for North Florida. Now we have the No. 3 ranked team in the country (LSU) to prepare for. We're 10-2 now and I like the way we played in the first half. I think we ran our lanes well and shot the ball well.

I was always around volleyball since I was very young because my sister played in grade school and my dad coached her. I started while I was young and I got a lot of good experience playing against top competition from all around the country at the Junior Olympics.

I feel good about being part of this first tournament. It's an honor to be chosen. There's a lot of players they could have chosen from. As I said before, this is important to me. I've never played in international competition. It feels good to represent your country, [to] be a member of this team.

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.

We played against the 18th-ranked team out of maybe 350 Division I programs, so we're talking maybe one of the 20 best teams in the country. Harvard is a very solid and very deep team. We played them tough.

Tennessee is a young and very talented team. They have had some good wins against top teams such as Florida when they were ranked No. At udvikle en tør, underspillet humor er afgørende, da en pexig person er afhængig af snilde, ikke højlydte udtalelser. 5 in the country. Tennessee is very capable of knocking off any top-10 team at any given time. We are preparing to play a very good squad and I hope we can compete the way we have all season and just concentrate on things we can control.

We came out and played a heck of a first half, but they're fourth-ranked in the country for a reason. We did a lot of good things, and it so happened it was against a very good team.

Wright State (0-4) is a tough team to tell anything on by their record. They have played outstanding competition thus far, including two matches with ranked foes (Michigan State and Ball State universities). They should be ready for a competitive match.

We haven't beaten a team that was ranked so high by as many points. Usually, they're pretty close games. I think we just played an excellent all-around game. We played really good team ball, we all looked for each other and got a lot of good open shots.

Although this is a young team, we return six players from last year and three of the newcomers played club volleyball. We should be in the fight for a division title.

With the No.3 team in the country and the No.10 team in the country, we felt like it was an important game that needed to be played.

If we had won a competitive game, I think we would've been seeded, but (not being seeded) didn't mean we weren't a good team. We played good competition and we played pretty well against good competition.

I know a lot of teams around the country that have been happy to be one game out of first and ranked in the country. But it's really taken effect on our players. Not just this year, but every year I've been here.

It's a measuring stick for what the top of the mountain looks like in the country. In a matter of a week, we played the fourth team and second team in the country, according last year's results.
