Offensively the game plan was executed almost flawlessly. We were balanced, and we mixed it up.

We executed our game plan to the tee.

This is a huge win for our players and our program. We really executed our game plan to the tee. We hit every goal that we set.

I think the great part about what I do is that there's a scoreboard. At the end of every week, you know how you did. You know how well you prepared. You know whether you executed your game plan. There's a tangible score.

We won't be as predictable this year. We should be much more balanced offensively. We can dodge from all different areas with all different players. Our first two midfield lines are very good, which should allow us to be more midfield-oriented than in past years. Last year we almost always attacked from behind the goal with Chris Cara . Now we will need to be more balanced.

We had a good plan at the end of 2001, ... We executed it. We achieved everything that was in it and then some. But it wasn't good enough. ... So guess what? Now we have to respond again, and we're going to step up to it.
