Mike Stevenson Quotations

We hope (Gilson) has a really good hammer competition and she hasn't made a regional mark in the hammer yet. I'm also looking for them to do well in the discus as well.

I'm real happy for the way they ran and they improved by six seconds from their times the previous week. We'll run faster this weekend and our goal for them is to drop another four seconds.

There should be some good teams and tough competition. It's going to be good for us and hopefully we have a very solid performance by everybody across the board.

Because we went to Alabama, I decided to balance off the travel and the expenses. Hopefully they will be rested enough to compete at Missouri in two weeks. I hope we could go outside when this weather warms up as opposed to practicing indoors.

It's our home meet so we want to put our best foot forward to score as many points as we can.

(Chew) has shown she is ready to go higher. She's very smart and she is doing things. I am looking for her to continue to grow and improve over the rest of the season.

We're real happy for her, especially for the shot put. (Gilson) threw real far in the first meet and is back up where she needs to be. The weight throw has some improving to do; she kind of declined on it and is real frustrated. She has been watching film on her technique and checking to see if there is anything visible to see if she has some kind of problem throwing it.

We practically have enough for our own roller hockey team.

He struggled a little bit this past weekend, he couldn't get the jump off because he stepped over the board just a little bit. That's not a problem he usually has. He'll be more eager this weekend because he's a little mad at himself. We'll want to be a little conservative on his first jump and loosen up the following jumps.

(Martin) just has a little injury issue. She could have competed and we're saving her for this weekend (at Iowa State University) where there will be much better competition than at UNI.
