Doug Kilby

The corner kick right before half was nice and the minute Alex hit that corner, I said that's a great ball. Ben went hard and it was a super head - you couldn't have a better corner to a head. That's real soccer. It just went boom.

Trent Dilfer

kind words after football games when they beat us up. That meant the world to me.

Knowing we're not at full strength, that's one plus of where we're at. Even the people we have on the floor aren't healthy, so as the year goes on hopefully we're going to get better.

Greg Clippinger

Kennard-Dale started out fairly strong with some energy to beat us in our flat system and we got a bit disorganized.

Chuck D.

Joey wrestled a great tournament, and we don't want him to get lost in the shuffle. He was solid all weekend.
