Bracket Quotations | Page 2

I looked at the bracket and I thought about it. I've been thinking about (2004, when she made the all-tournament team as a freshman) a lot lately. I remember the feeling of celebrating after we beat Penn State. Hopefully, that's one we can duplicate.

It has helped us that the bracket is so similar. We put things in practice that everybody's done, and I feel like our team is prepared.

I think New Mexico has performed far too well to fall completely out, but the loss bumped them from about a six seed down to the middle of the bracket at eight or nine, where you're lucky to win one game, much less two.

By doubling the bracket all we're doing is helping school teachers, waitresses, police, store managers, those kind of hardworking Americans and I'm proud to do it,

By splitting up a large distribution and taking part in December and part in January, you may avoid moving to a higher tax bracket in either year, and keep more of your Social Security benefits from being taxed as well.

You could make a great Final Four just from the teams in our regional alone. Everyone seems to agree it's the toughest. But, we've played great teams all year and we'll be prepared. I think the strength of this bracket will help motivate our team.

(The district tournament) is just as important as ever. We don't want to get a low seed and end up on the same side of the bracket as St. Mike's.

The Class 3A field is very good this year. There are eight teams in that bracket right now that think they can win it all. The four first-round games are all going to be good games.
