I feel I gained a lot of momentum for next season. My season started kind of slowly, but I'm really happy about making it to the Olympics. I've improved so much from last season, and I'm looking forward to improving even more.

We need to take this momentum and roll it over like cell-phone minutes next season.

These guys feel the same type of fervor. They can't wait until we get started for next season. ... I think there are a lot of plusses we can take from this. I believe that guys do have a defiant attitude because of what happened, and we'll be better for it.

The crowd was so loud. I went out for the warm-ups and they started shouting my name. I never had that happen before.

I definitely feel like I'm ready. I can't wait until tomorrow ... . I just can't wait for it to happen.
