Quotes by Matt Ward
They are mostly Canadian, so they have very skilled sticks and they are very talented offensively. We are going to have to outwork them on the field, because they are certainly very capable.
We can't take anyone lightly. Every game is an important one -- we've got to build our season brick by brick, and that's what we're going to try and do.
We'll take a lot of things from this game, but mostly we realize we'll have to get better. We'll take all that to the practice field.
To be a student athlete is tough. You get to class and people don't realize that you have practice all week. It's very time consuming, but you build something special. You have over thirty kids on your team and you build a special bond with them that I don't think most kids in college get. It's certainly taxing.
We're doing pretty good as a team. Once we put the whole team together we'll be even better.
We got everything going in the first half. We were able to control the ball and get the ball on offense. If we're moving the ball well, we get up on teams.
Last week we worked really hard in practice. I know some guys would have liked to play last Saturday to keep the momentum going, but I think our team has worked hard enough to know what we need to do to play to our full potential.
