Kevin Kowalik Good Quotations

Vlad did great. He beat very good players from some of the California schools. I don't put expectations on the guys, but he wasn't seeded, and if you want to look at it from that perspective, he shouldn't be doing that well.

This was a great win for us. We wanted to get some revenge after they beat us 5-2 last season. And starting our season 2-0 is a good way to open the year.

Realistically, I think we have a good shot at this tournament. Look at all the close matches that we've played this year. The question is just whether we can get the ball to bounce our way.

Competition at the top spot is always going to be closer because every school has that one standout player in the number one position and those players are naturally better. I thought our guys did very well against a good opponent.
