There's definitely a rivalry there. The kids feel it, and they play for it.

I know the kids are disappointed. We were genuinely excited as a program to play them again. I can't tell you how many people came up to me (since the announcement) and said how excited they were that we were playing again.

A couple kids were respectable. They're one of the top teams in the league. If we play our best we still don't necessarily beat them. No one did exceptionally well. It wasn't good enough today.

It doesn't seem like there's a rivalry here. I know our townspeople get up for it, but our kids don't. (The rivalry's) not there like it used to be. It's just a phenomenon I've never dealt with. I've been upset with the kids because they haven't been too excited about it.

It's definitely a good rivalry. We don't have to tell the kids about getting excited, and I think they feel the same way. It's a big game for everybody. It's always real special.

We've developed a nice rivalry with Rutgers Prep. It's two good teams, a lot of the kids know each other, and this game means an awful lot to them.
