I have been very impressed with their attitude and work ethic.

Our attitude is still great. Our work ethic is great. We aspire to make the playoffs, so we still have a lot to play for.

I really like our work ethic and the athletes we have. I'm anxious to get them on the field. I think we're very capable of being a quality team but at the same time we need to see them in action.

Our work ethic, the professionalism and experience of our staff all go into that (optimism). Everyone has responded well. Having fourth-period athletics this year makes all the difference in the world as far as teaching goes.

That's important for the school. He might not be the greatest athlete, but his attitude and work ethic may help him win games.

He has such a positive effect on the other kids. His sense of humor and work ethic are great examples of how to be loose but also focused.
