Expectations are set high for Kyle. He is undoubtedly one of the best athletes in the MAC. Kyle should be a fixture in our lineup until he graduates because he plays solid defense and he can tear up division III pitching.

Kyle is full of intensity, plays hard, plays to win, and leads by example. Kyle's intensity is very contagious.

We have some young kids and athletes new to cross country. Our expectations this year? We really don't have any. I tell the girls before races, 'Focus on yourself, not on anybody else.' I don't want my runners to have any worries; I want them just to go out there and run.

It's a combination of them having a great pass rush with great athletes and their coverage. We were covered. They spread the net, they played a real soft zone on us, and we just weren't able to get open.

Our team has a lot of athletes that can make plays. We scored a lot of points in transition off steals. I was really proud of our defensive effort. This team has taken pride in holding teams down defensively.

We know they have good athletes at Bellows Falls and we tried to keep them with the ball on the left side of the court. They go to the right well.
