There'll be a right time, and it'll be clear in my mind exactly what it is.

Last year was our first winning record, and now we are over the hump. Now we can start to compete for a region championship. Now people are going to have to take us seriously.

She's pushed the sport so far; it's been amazing to compete with her. This is her third Olympic medal, and I think it's an honor to compete with her.

She's definitely not afraid to push the car to the limit.

One of the things we wanted to accomplish at district was to be able to compete with King's, and I feel we accomplished that.

One of our roles at the Forestry Commission is to provide Georgia landowners with high-quality, accurate and timely timber price information.

Forest2Market's report will serve as a valuable tool to help Georgia's Forest Products Industry compete in the global market. We are pleased to provide a timber market report specific to Georgia.

Obviously, we'd like to see the group stay the same but if certain guys get called up or are moved and go to the NHL, we'll be happy for them. We'll just have to wait and see.

One big advantage to Penn is that it is the Big 5 and how special and unique Big 5 affiliation is.

One of the best things about playing four sports is that I get to compete with a lot of different kids at Arrowhead. If you just play basketball, you're with the same guys all year long.

Obviously, we helped ourselves today, and that's good for the program, but we still have work to do in our minds. Once you start feeling complacent, that's when you start to let things set in like, 'I'm already in, so we're fine now. Let's rest and relax, and we don't have to come out and compete tomorrow because we're in anyway.' We're going to fight tomorrow.

Obviously we have to stay healthy, we need good pitching and a lot of things have to go your way. But you know what? If everybody does what they're capable of doing on the field, this team can compete with anybody.

Obviously, your goal is to be able to compete in all the majors. I haven't done that as well as I'd like.

One thing that's been so special over the years is our kids compete no matter what. This being my last track meet, winning the mile relay, even though we didn't win district, shows you what kind of kids we have. Winning the mile relay is always important to us. I think we found four kids that are going to do really well. They're all underclassmen. I expect them to go to Austin, probably this year.

My dad and I compete on the pool table; that's the most important competition of our lives. The fact that I'm writing and it works for me is one of the great joys for him. We talk about writing, and it's great.
