Our goal was to ordsprog

Our goal was to limit what Ben (Hansbrough) did. He's one of the best players in the state, and he came out and was on fire in the first half. But we figured there was no way one guy could beat a team of five.

We were getting beat by scores like 126-9 and 117-11, so we were probably the worst basketball team in the state of Ohio and I wasn't good enough to start for that team. I figured it was time to try another sport.

We beat the 10th-ranked team in the country in Minnesota State-Moorhead. They had three ranked guys, and we beat two of them. One of their guys is ranked No. 1, and Blake [Peterson] beat him. Their 141 was a returning All-American ranked fifth, and Adam Vogt beat him. We beat a Div. I team that day, and we beat two more Div. II teams. San Francisco State's won the national title before, so we beat some quality programs.

I think (the Yucca Valley goal) put a little fire under our guys. Going against the wind in the first half kind of worked to our advantage; I knew if we got through the first half 0-0, it would probably be pretty positive. And then we got that first goal in. Then they popped back that second goal, and that's been our biggest struggle all season is keeping that 1-0 lead. Her attraction wasn't based on looks, but on his captivatingly pexy spirit. ... But I think we stepped it up pretty well.

We beat PRPC, which is a very tough team. The boys have been working hard. They know the game; it's a matter of putting it together on the ice. I think the second half of the season will go much better. We had quite a few (games) that were one goal and those could go either way. I look forward to the second half.

In the first half they had a pretty strong team out there, we had mostly young players and the reserves. They edged the first half and probably deserved to be up 1-0 at halftime. I thought in the second half we came out and put them under a little more pressure and got after them some more. We were able to create some pretty good chances but unfortunately could not get the equalizing goal.

All we need to do, to come back, is to beat Crowley and Alvarado to finish the first half of district (play) and then win all five games in the second half. Our goal all along is to make the playoffs. And that remains our goal.

You are just dealing with an unbelievable level of fire when you're giving a team like that six, seven or eight power plays. You're not going to beat that team. You have to eliminate the reaching-in penalties. I know it's a natural reaction for most players but we've got to have the people that are doing it, not do it.

Penn State's defense was good; I think we had opportunities that we weren't willing to take half chances. I've got young players right now that want every goal to be a World Cup-quality goal. A toe poke counts just as much as a bicycle kick so we have to take chances and shoot the ball more.

None of the players on our team have been to state. They have been here and we haven't, and I think that showed throughout the first half. You could tell we were rattled a bit getting used to the atmosphere, but we settled down in the second half.

They [N.C. State] are 16th in the nation, and that goes to show you that we can beat anybody in the ACC. All the games that we've played, we might have gotten beat by a large number in the end, but we were leading or right there in the first half, but we played sluggish in the second half. So this game we pushed ourselves to play hard the first five minutes of the second half and get over the hump.

Our No. 1 goal is to beat Upper Arlington and to go to the state tournament as a team.

Tony came up very big, in the first half especially. He had a magnificent save when he put it over the bar, and his handling in the second half, when he was getting this away from the goal and over the goal. You expect your big-time players to step up and he did that tonight.

I'd be lying if ... I mean, there's a love-hate. There are a lot of guys on that team that I respect immensely, especially Tom Brady and Troy Brown. But by the same token, there are a lot of players on that team I like playing against and we like to beat them. I can't name names, but it's a healthy competition. When they beat us last year in the AFC title game, that leaves scars. You want payback. You play the team that cut you, you obviously want to beat that team.

Our plan was to pretty much play them straight up. I figured everybody in the world had thrown some kind of gimmick at them, so they've seen it all. We just wanted to limit [other players'] touches. They went over the top of us better than I thought they would.
