Mike Cooper Quotations

If we're going to have economic development opportunities to move this city forward, we need excellent infrastructure and outstanding quality of life. This project solves both of those problems.

I think as a small private school we do get overlooked sometimes, but that's fine with me because we know how good we are, and we are going to go out and play hard every night.

I think the staff is taking it hardest. Kids don't fully understand the importance of what's happening to them. I think reality is going to set in this week.

We jumped out on them and got a few steals. I think our overall defensive pressure had them struggling them a bit. We didn't play particularly well the rest of the game, but our defensive presence is what sealed the game for us.

Well, we're going to have to face them sooner or later, so we know what we have to do on Wednesday. It doesn't matter (who we have to play or when).

Coach Wilder coached so many great teams here (at The Pit). To be able to win here is extra special because of the kind of guy he was. He was great for high school basketball.

This land is going to be held for the city at a price that is well under market level.

It's sad that it's closing; 5,300 people have gone through this school.
