Ball Quotes
Possessions are also really key. Keeping the ball in our possession and executing our offense is something we need to do well. We've been a good team all season long of taking care of the basketball. I think there's been 10 or 12 games where we've been under eight turnovers. Those two things are the keys for any one of the teams in the tournament. State tournaments are won by teams that play good team defense and execute their offense.

Among Quotes
He might have been the best player among both teams. He is so strong on the puck. He's great at keeping possession of it. He'll fend off opponents by using his body and shifting his weight. He'll enable us to sustain a power play another 20 seconds by winning a loose puck and controlling it.

Bryan Quotes
West Virginia is a great squad and I couldn't be happier with the team's performance. We kept possession of the ball, passed effectively and defended well. Bryan is a young goalkeeper, who was playing in his first game. The spring season exists so that players can gain experience and Bryan will be better for it.

Anybody Quotes
He's a ball mover. It's not that our offense has been so slow ... we ran the same stuff when he was in the game and looked pretty good. Moving, cutting, being sharp, understanding how hard you've got to play, tighten every possession up, pay attention to detail ... he does that as well as anybody we have, if not better.

Against Quotes
I think we match up fairly well against them. They play a style that like we play. They don't race up and down the floor and run-and-gun. They work the possession and take good shots. They have an excellent coach who is Hall of Fame material. They're fundamentally sound and don't turn the ball over. They turned it over only eight times against Grantsburg. We have to play every bit as good as we played Saturday, and we may have to pick that up a notch.

Ball Quotes
I think this is the best game we've played thus far, including the Notre Dame win. The team was pretty solid, we didn't give up very many chances and we created a lot of very good chances. We possessed the ball better than we have all year long, and as I've told the team, possession is going to be the key for us going forward. Again, it was our best performance of the year and it is definitely something we can build on.

Ball Quotes
Our guards did a good job of moving the ball up the floor in transition, and I just tried to focus on running the break every time. I noticed that helps us out a lot when we get out in transition. That?s when we?re at our best, so it?s just something that (assistant coach Chris Dailey) told me to focus on a lot, I tried to do it every single possession down the court.

Chances Quotes
Our power play hung in there. Even though we didn't get the ultimate reward of a goal, we had possession time in the offensive zone, we had shots, we had scoring chances. If they're working at it and doing the things you need to do to create chances but not scoring, it's still positive for your team.

Against Quotes
Our team fought hard today. Our attack was solid, but we did not create enough scoring chances. Overall, we played better than we did on Friday evening and gave ourselves a chance to win. We have some big games in front of us, so we will need to work on improving our possession and get some rest after a very physical weekend against Michigan and Michigan State.

Collectors Quotes
Our ultimate goal- total control of handguns in the United States- is going to take time... The first problem is to slow down the increasing number of handguns being produced... The second problem is to get handguns registered. And the final problem is to make the possession of handguns and all handgun ammunition- except for the military, policemen, licensed security guards, licensed sporting clubs, and licensed gun collectors - totally illegal.

Ball Quotes
Outside of the goal in the game, it was our best game of the year in terms of what we did with the ball. We kept possession and moved the ball well, and had good rhythm and flow. We created numerous quality scoring opportunities today. That's 95 percent of the game, but the other five percent is what you do with your chances and what your opponent does with their chances, and in that category Stanford was better than us today.
-
Amount Quotes
Physically there is a difference. He dropped a significant amount of weight, some where between 10 and 15 pounds. The biggest thing, he has a lot of stamina and can run deep routes down the field all day at top speed. He is not getting tired. He has become a huge player not only down the field, but as a possession receiver. You have seen him do some great things after catching short passes.

Claim Quotes
Who is entitled to rents from Fort Trumbull properties or should rents even be paid? Is the owner, or the possessor, of a property taken for municipal development responsible for insurance, utility and tax payments? Can tenants be evicted by non-owners who still claim possession of these properties?
-
Almost Quotes
We're deep and able to keep such good possession that we've been able to put on so much pressure. It's almost a matter of time before we wear you down, ... We can play 80 minutes at a high rate of play, with a lot of energy at a high level. The subs coming on are very close to the starting 11.
-
Call Quotes
We encourage people to call 9-1-1 and let police intervene because quite often suspects are very dangerous and in some cases can be in possession of weapons and or needles. Very similar to a cornered animal, they're going to do one of two things: they're going to run or fight, and in this particular case the suspect did both. We certainly don't encourage people to put themselves in harm's way.

Chance Quotes
We dug ourselves a little hole early on and never quit, never gave up. We fought back. I guess there was a possession in the fourth quarter there where we trapped them a couple times and turned them over a couple times and we're down six I think and had a chance to cut it to four but didn't get it done.
