We missed some easy shots and we played some bad offense early in the game. Our defense turned around in the second quarter. We got our offense out of our defense. Then we settled down and started making some good plays. It came out of our defense first.

It's going to come down to who is on their game. Who is on on defense, who gets a couple of the key hits and who has their pitcher throwing well.

I'd rather be a combo because it keeps the defense guessing, ... They never know what's going to happen.

They (Reed) did a great job on defense. I had to find some other ways to get my points.

My job on defense is to not allow the other team to get a long run or long pass. And on the return team my job is to catch the ball, if it comes to me, and try to run a touchdown.

We're going to be very solid on defense. The secondary is going to have to lead the defense because that is where we have the most seniors. I'm expecting great things back there, and I hope it will rub off on the other players. This is my senior season, and I'm ready. It's what a player dreams of.
