It was pretty tough. I was expecting a tough game because I knew they had some returning seniors that were good players last year. We pulled it together in the end, but it was pretty ugly. We still have a lot to work on.

We want to go to the championship again.

We needed to be more aggressive up front.

It was a pretty equal race. Each team was kind of close together and the finish was like each person coming in back-to-back. I ran a pretty good race. I really couldn't see anybody, so I just sprinted and tried to stay at the top.

For many landowners, it is not practical to pick up every bit of insulation blown onto their land.

... there's a silent voice in the wilderness that we hear only when no one else is around. When you go far, far beyond, out across the netherlands of the Known, the din of human static slowly fades away, over and out.
