I feel like our kids have grown quite a bit since the first encounter. We should definitely make a go of things.

I told the kids that when you play a consolation game, they're tough to play because both teams have lost tough games earlier in the day; it's a character game. Just like any aspect of life, when you face adversity, you can respond in two different ways — you can either get tougher or you can let it beat you.

Jimmy's played really well for us. He's my best shooter and my best offensive player.

It's overwhelming to see kids excited. It's a dream come true.

As a coach, I can really appreciate having a group of kids like this. There are a lot of kids out there who are obsessed by distance, and all they want to do is pound their drivers. Our kids aren't like that. They understand the game. They get it. They realize that the goal is to get the ball in the hole, and the best way to do that is to practice your iron shots, your wedges, your chipping and your putting. If you develop those skills to a high degree, you're going to beat the bombers most of the time.

We felt it was the best thing for the kids of our valley. It was a tough task.
