gets heart inside puts
You can just tell he puts his heart into it. It's just something inside of him that just gets him motivated.
far losses second three
We're 3-3. That's three losses too many as far as we're concerned. After our second loss, we said the same thing.
dice kids last saw schools southern year
Last year we never saw any of the kids from the southern schools and just kind of rolled the dice to see how you did. This year we know where we sit.
against past practicing remember spread
I don't remember practicing against spread offenses as much as we did this past fall. It's (been) a lot more.
against four good higher kids knew needed nine overall step
I was pretty devastated. I knew we were up against the wall. Mascoutah had four No. 1 seeds. Overall we had 10 seeds. They had nine but they had some higher seeds. The kids who were seeded first got their first place. We needed some of the other kids to step up. It's not that we didn't have a good season.
against dedicated emulate fast guys hard helps periods separate spread time trying
Really, all the time we're working on getting to the ball, which helps against the spread offense. But we'll have separate periods dedicated to the spread offense, and we'll have fast guys at quarterback, trying to emulate the spread quarterbacks. We've really been working hard on that.
bounce game great opportunity
It's a great opportunity for us to bounce back. It's a big game for us.
break coach community guys hard honor hope kids proud record row school testament
It's been an honor to coach the kids and break this record two years in a row. I told them it makes me happy, and I hope the school is proud of them and the community is proud of them. For these guys to break the record two years in a row is a testament to their hard work.
means mess technique
That just means we have to do everything that we need to do perfectly. Know where we need to be at, know our technique. If you mess up your technique with this guy, he can make you pay.
beat helps high key kid lets lost next weight win
It's very key (to get a high seed). A, it lets you know where you're at in your weight bracket. B, if there's a first-round bye you'll get the first-round bye. But you need to win your next match. Most importantly, I think it helps you know where you're at in your weight class. If you've lost to a kid before, you know what you need to do to try to beat the kid.
guys watching
After watching it, we had some guys kind of loafing.
game gonna win
I don't think this season's been going the way we wanted it to go, so I don't think any win from now on is gonna do that. But this is a real big game for us, a must-win.
