There was no rhythm to the entire game, really.

In the second game we finally starting seeing the ball and hitting it better. It was a good experience for the kids to play this Hawaiian team.

He’s a very intelligent player with speed and size and he hits.

We’re moving him to slot back and he’ll get a lot of option pitches and run pass routes. He has great hands.

We’re looking for him to make good decisions and run our offense like he did last season.

He’s 100 percent now. He went to conditioning classes and you’d never know he was injured at all.

He’s a very physical kid and is one of our toughest kids, especially on the pass rush side of things.

In high school, it’s a critical position. A bad snap is worth 50 yards of field position.

Another big thing that made a difference was we have a lot of seniors and we were able to hold onto our composure.

It was a rough game. They have good athletes, they are physical. We had our hands full, no question about it. But our defense won this game.

It’s been a while since our defense won a game. We were on the ropes. They probably had 35 snaps the first quarter and a half and our defense just hung in there, tough as...

We have some depth. That’s something we haven’t had in the past.
