Ten different kids scored tonight, and I thought our second group played as well as our first group.

We were a little tentative, and who wouldn't be? This game, you're building toward it your whole career, and you get it, and everybody's in the building. I can't blame the kids for being tight. And we didn't work our way out of it as quickly as I thought we could have.

After a while, you're just swimming up stream. You're trying to juggle people. And we got away with guys playing with four fouls probably a lot longer than we should have.

I've been lucky to have Zach. It especially helps that he is bigger because that makes the other kids I wrestle in my weight class seem easier.

For a coach, you can't ask anything more. Six kids all played their role tonight.

(The rivalry) has changed. It's been a while since Fredericktown beat Clear Fork. Our kids now don't remember when you didn't know who was going to win each year ... but Clear Fork is a big school with great tradition. The kids are excited, there's definitely a rivalry feel to it.
