depth goal main state strong talent team year
We have a really strong men's team. We've got a lot of talent and depth on this team and our main goal this year is to make it to state championships.
capable five lower scores shooting starters
We need at least two scores in the mid-70s to be competitive. All five of our starters are capable of shooting lower scores.
great improve players qualify shame starting team
It's been great and I can see that they are starting to improve their games. It's just a shame we can't get enough players to qualify in team standings. I think we'd place pretty high.
separating sixth strokes
If you look at the scores, there's only 24 strokes separating first and sixth place. That's not a lot of strokes.
early experience fought good hard kid kids lights players saw shot
That kid really shot lights out. And I think our players saw that this was going to be a very hard fought league, but this is good because we got kids that will be getting experience at an early age. It'll just make them better.
effort extra matt might pleased
I was very pleased with Matt Smith's race, he put in extra effort and we might not have made it (to state) without him.
level notice served time
This is the first time ever that we competed at this level and I'd say we've served notice on the other schools. I couldn't be happier.
bitter consistent finish league teams
It's going to come to the bitter end. This year's league is very competitive and the two teams that finish consistent from here on out will go to state.
battle competition level
This league's got an unprecedented level of competition. It's been a battle all year.
anyone happen overall race shows team
Overall we skied really well. But (the race) shows anything can happen and it can be anyone on the team who scores.
dedicate eventually game necessary overnight pays practice results short tame team time willing
(The short game) does tame time and patience. The team is willing to dedicate the necessary time to improve. The results don't come overnight - it's a game where a lot of practice eventually pays off.
almost fourth meant perfect points rest team
It meant that the rest of the team had to be almost perfect to keep us in the race. And while we weren't perfect, we did well enough to end up in fourth place after the first day, only 13 points out of the lead.
few great next reason since
We had a lot of great competitors and since most are underclassmen, there's no reason we shouldn't do better for the next few years.
bottom final four gun guys happened state sure takes top until
What happened to Eli could have happened to us just as easily. Our place at state isn't a sure thing until the final gun sounds. All it takes is for your top two guys to go down and then it's up to the bottom four to make up the points.
