We're cutting new ground. It's something to be proud of. We're talking about nine institutions, eight markets, seven states and a very wide footprint.

Jan is completely different from other years. I have known him for seven, eight or nine years, and he clearly has a new motivation and a new perspective. I think he will win.

We have good swimmers, but we go in down nine, eight or seven points before the meet even starts. That's difficult to make up.

In the first half, we had seven or eight shots go in and out.

I'm reading six, seven, eight books at a time.

To have that many goalies is tough. You have to be cohesive with your defense. With seven or eight guys, you never know what will happen there night to night. I know that if I can be solid we have a great chance to win.
