The financial issue is a real issue. The state is saying to us very clearly that we have to close some schools in order to get the dollars that we need to run the system.

The first two times, we tried to match their style and try to mix in a little bit of how we played. Tonight we just went and played the way we play.

Her blood has been screaming from the grave for seven years and it's time for justice.

I'm really proud of the way our defense played tonight. That's the way Sharks defense is supposed to play.

It's tough, especially when you go out like this. I don't think I played well, but you have to look back on whole thing, I had a great four years.

It was one of those situations where nobody could do anything.

It's hard to win three games in a season against the same team. So we'll still have a tough game to play in the final. When we got here, we said we were starting 0-0 again, and now were right where we want to be.

You reward everybody for what they do best. We want the guys who take the charges, block the shots and we have a stat for getting loose balls, for diving on the floor. We put emphasis on those little statistics, when everybody only wants to know about rebounds, assists and scoring. It's not just about who scores all the points.

First thing I heard this morning was, 'Oh, my baby. My baby, she's under the school bus.

Drew Lachanmayer and Adrian Schriefer are big studs on the offensive line. That's the key part of our offense, those guys on the line. I'm hoping we can have a good season.
