All the games are going to be tight, and we just have to worry about ourselves and make sure we get into good form coming into next week and just compete.

After the first quarter, we didn't have to worry about it. The games are a lot closer this year.

It's hard for me to say how we played. In close games, I worry more about coaching than the players. Alexander Central played hard, harder than us at times, but I'm proud of how we executed down the stretch.

We feel there are still a lot of quality players in these rounds of the draft, so we did our homework.

[Spartan Stadium] is a tough place to play. I think the attitude coming in was very positive, but with [San Jose] getting the first goal, and now us chasing the game, it makes it doubly hard on us in a building where you don't have a lot of space.

Jeremy is a player we did our homework on. He's a defender, but is actually a converted forward. There are a lot of things we liked about him.
