Tim Dougherty Good Quotations

Our top priority this week is to play good defense because Alton can beat you in a lot of different ways. They can play ball control, grinding it out for eight or nine minutes, or they can complete a 70-yard pass, like they did against us last season. Our defense is going to have to be ready for anything.

Our offensive line answered the bell tonight. It's been a while since we've had one of those games from our line. But it was pretty darn good football.

They've played some good teams already. Like I told our kids, we haven't played Alton or East St. Louis yet like they have, so we could be in the same boat,

Our kids have prepared hard all season and they came ready to play. We beat a very good football team tonight. I couldn't be more proud of our kids.

Our guys were looking forward to this challenge. We felt this was a big challenge for us against a very good football team.
