Brian Martel Quotations

This was one of the closer ones we've seen. But we were expecting that. Eaton Rapids has a lot of good, young kids.

He knows he can do the job. It's just a confidence thing.

Our younger kids stepped up for us and our seniors gave us the wins that we needed.

We had different kids step up this time that didn't last time and that was the difference in us getting the win. Keeping the matches closer we picked up a couple of extra bonus points that we missed last time.

They don't know what it's like not to go. There is a lot of pressure because they don't want to be known as the first group not to make it to the state finals.

It was everything we thought it would be and more. The key was keeping the matches closer and picking up those bonus points. It may not seem like a big deal, but in a 29-26 match, it's the difference.

It was a close match. (But) I thought our seniors really stepped up.
