We had our chances and at the end, we got some goals. Marietta attacked well, and we gave Marietta too many chances. But we hung in there and scored when we needed to.

Joe is a fantastic goalkeeper. He came up with some big saves.

I?m beginning to think this is a team of destiny.

We have been solid defensively all year. All of our defenders do a nice job, even when they moved No. 12 (Mitchell) up.

We defended Roeder very well. We held him to no field goals in the second half. But we put them on the line too much.

We realize we're a long ways from achieving the goals we want this season. It's always good to start with a win, but we've got a lot of other things to accomplish this year. The first one is nice, but the last one is the one everybody remembers.
