We should be dominating next year. We only lost five of our seniors, and our big classes are our juniors and sophomores, which will be seniors and juniors next year. So I think we're going to all step up, and it'll be amazing to watch.

We're just 14- and 15-year-old guys playing against juniors and seniors, and these guys are just stepping up. Most kids, not mine, but others I think would falter.

We had seven seniors, including five who were four-year players, and had lost only two key skaters from the year before.

I talked to the seniors and juniors before to have their input, and they were a little hesitant at the start. I think they felt better because everyone had to wear one. It wasn't an option.

I try to take control out there. If someone's losing their temper, I try to get them back in line and focused back on the game instead of what the fans are hollering or what the other team's saying.

I've got two or three receivers who I know when I throw the ball, they're going to get it. I also feel comfortable giving it to my running backs. I know they'll make something happen. But when something isn't going right, I do take full responsibility.
