challenge exciting front guys monumental task
It's an exciting challenge for us. We've got a monumental task in front of us, no doubt. But I think our guys will be ready.
kids mention thinking
I didn't mention that to the kids before the game, but I know they were thinking about it.
balls bat couple difference great hit played starting swing
They played great defense. I thought we hit the balls that were going to fall. They made some great plays, and that was the difference in the ball game. They had a couple find the holes, and we had a couple that didn't. We're starting to swing the bat a lot better. We're starting to hit the ball solid.
basketball couple good nice playing tonight
I thought Chris's penetration tonight for us was really a key. He got to the rim a couple times and made a couple of nice passes. He's playing some really good basketball for us right now.
bottom field sixth three top win
I told them when we went out in the field in the top of the sixth to get three outs and win it in the bottom half.
baseball couple five four freeman good hit looked mental pitching played tomorrow
The more live pitching we'll see, the better we'll get. That was a big hit Freeman had for us. We had a couple of mental breakdowns and looked kind of sloppy, but we haven't played in four or five days. That happens. Tomorrow we'll see good pitching and a really good baseball team.
confidence confident continue freshmen hard last themselves worked year
They're maturing. Last year it was a lot of freshmen in the field, and we've worked hard on defense. We'll continue to work hard on defense. They've got confidence in themselves now, and they're confident they can make plays.
goal hard lucky overcome shots
That's pretty uncharacteristic of the way we've played. It's hard to overcome that. When you're not getting shots at the goal at all ... we were lucky to probably be where we were.
ball confidence freeman hot plate seeing time
Freeman is hot right now. He's seeing the ball well. It couldn't have been a better time for him to come to the plate (Friday). He's got a lot of confidence now.
driving nigerian oil prices problem pure security
The Nigerian problem is driving oil prices ? it's a pure security question.
driving iran nigerian oil prices problem pure security
The Nigerian problem is driving oil prices -- it's a pure security question. If the posturing over Iran continues, then we will see oil prices go the same way again.
conference outside realistic shot winning
I don't really know if anybody's got a realistic shot at winning the conference outside of Mascoutah.
couple games good recently struggled tonight
He got a couple big baskets there and it was good to see. He's had some games recently where he's struggled some, but tonight he really shined.
happy played victory
It's a tradeoff that we'll take at this point. We're very happy with our victory and we thought we played pretty well tonight.
