He exceeded what were already very high expectations. He's that guy leading the team by example in practice, asking the goalie coach for more work.

They just refused to roll over, and it really set the tone.

He is leading by his example of work and the effort he puts in. He's raised the level of expectations for how judges work.

We know what it takes to win. We're just leading by example, and hopefully they'll catch on, and I think they are. We're headed in the right direction.

They're two of the best captains I have ever seen. They have done a good job of leading by example-but not only leading by example, but by being vocal too. They have been the most responsible for the place where we are at.

We had really, for the last four days of practice leading up to the game, stressed getting out on (Highland) and setting the tone defensively. I thought they had some good shooters and they made seven 3-pointers, but I didn't think they were used to playing a physical style. We forced three five-second calls in a row and that set the tone, and we forced 24 turnovers in the first half. Our transition worked really well and we got a lot of easy baskets.
