ahead along bring difference excited far focusing happy kids next normally players
Oh, I'm really excited with the nucleus of kids we have right now. We're so far ahead of where we normally are right now, it's unbelievable. So we're really happy with that. We're just really right now focusing on the right two international players to bring in to go along with this group. That's going to be the difference next year.
good growing national room team truth understand
I think we're a little overconfident, to tell you the truth. They think they're pretty good -- which they are -- but they have to understand that they're a young team and they have a lot of room to grow. We have to keep growing if we want to get where we want to be -- in that national championship.
balls block couple fast jump key next ourselves passing pressure serve setting teams time
Still, the key is in the passing and setting ourselves up. If we can do that consistently, and with our jump serve, you can look up and it's 10-10, and the next time you look up, it's 18-10. We serve a couple aces, block a couple balls, and all of a sudden, we get away from teams so fast and put a lot of pressure on them.
couple good moments tired
(Beck) had a couple good games. I thought she got a little tired at the end, but there were moments where she showed she can play a little bit, for sure.
jefferson lake salt saw sure
I think Jefferson will be right up there with what we saw (in Salt Lake City). I'm not sure about Florida, but I think on paper, they should be as good.
bring fired special
I tell you, her family, they are something though. There are so many of them and they get so fired up and have so much energy. They bring something special to the gym.
atmosphere bit close football hairy hope match potential snow stands team
I think the Snow match has potential to be tough. If their football team is there in the stands like they are sometimes, the stands are really close to the floor, and things can get a little bit hairy that way. So I hope it's like that. I hope we do have an atmosphere like that, because we'll probably see something like that at nationals.
along idaho lake north salt teams
I think North Idaho and Salt Lake will be the teams to beat, along with ourselves. So we'll get a look at them.
