“Wharton we've never beaten, we managed to tie them [this season]. Newsome we always struggle with them. It's kind of nice that they're on the other side of the bracket. As far as whether we feel that we have an easy route, we don't think that. We have to come out and play hard against whoever we face.”
“I think they've learned how to be competitive at the next level. They know that they have to come in and play a full 80 minutes. They saw what an eventual state champion did last year, and I think it gives them an idea as to what it takes to advance to states beyond regions.”
“We always set that as one of our goals. Our first goal was to get the No.1 seed, even though when you get into the district tournament, it's a completely new season.”
“Last year and the year before that we didn't have anyone who is scoring all of our goals. It's hard for our opponents to key on any one player, because is one guy isn't having a good night, someone else is going to step up for us.”
“Obviously that was huge for us to lose Brian because he starts at forward and is a part of our attack. It was unfortunate that he couldn't finish the game.”
“Castillo has been huge for us, not only this year, but in the past. He's an asset on this team. He really keeps us in the games and keeps us advancing. Land O' Lakes is a good team. They always have a good program, so we weren't expecting anything easy coming up here.”
“The wind played a bit of a factor. It kind of affected our play, but when you had that wind to your back it became easy to serve the ball up or shoot it from 40-50 yards out.”
