“It was kind of fun to go over and play one of my former players. I really believe he'll be an excellent coach because his team really did some good things tonight.”
“We came out really smoking. But then again toward the end of the half we were trying to posses the ball, but we kind of lost our intensity and didn't do well at all.”
“We played well as a team tonight ... and our finishing effort has certainly improved since last game (a 1-0 win over Marion County Thursday). We think we've got a good team. We just hope we're able to continue playing at the level we're playing at.”
“I want to give Mercer credit, they really never gave up. It was 6-0 at halftime, and they came out smoking. They were winning balls and making effective passes. They were pressuring the ball really nicely.”
“John is more interested in THIS 2005 team and what it will accomplish on and off the field then his personal record. He understands that if the players and program are handled correctly, the personal accolades will continue to occur.”
“We felt they were 90 percent (effort) and we were hoping they would step it up that extra 10 percent. And they dropped it down about 30 or 40, ... If Somerset would have put one in the back of the goal, there's no telling what would have happened. Because you probably would have seen an even better and more energetic Somerset team.”
“We didn't play well and I hope it's a wake-up call for this next game because it's going to be a tough game for us. If we play like this, we don't have a chance. Boyle County will take it to us and we'll go to the house,”
