The last match we got off to a slow start. But Terrance came in and changed the momentum with a kill right away.

Though it looked like the same team we faced the first time, they had a lot more kills in this game then they did in the last one.

It was a great match. Our players really rose to the occasion. They (Dear Valley) were really great competition.

It has to help us because I don’t see us playing any worse than we did there. We looked sloppy out there at times, we couldn’t set or pass.

In games one and two, we played defense. After that, we started off losing all of our games. It seemed that we were playing not to lose instead of trying to win. We started to...

I told our team that game could either make us or break us. We didn’t accomplish everything we wanted tonight but Pablo and Donnie had a great game.

They were okay. We knew they were good in the past, so it took a little while to get adjusted but once we did we pulled away.

The chemistry of this team is very good and they really know how to play together as a team. If everyone shows up every night and plays like they are capable of, we might just...

We are a little too confident right now. When we get to league, we won’t be able do that because of the competition there.

It was the worst nightmare ever. Especially after winning the first two games.

He was a wild man out there.

It’s going to be great competition. They need it for themselves to show what they can do.

I wasn’t really worried. I knew we would eventually pull it out.

I didn’t expect that. Buchanan was the only team I hadn’t got to see this year. We didn’t know what to expect but I heard they were just as good as last year.

We can’t afford to have those service errors. In game three, we had six bad serves that turned into six points for the other team.

We kind of knew it before the game because of some of the opponents they faced, we had played also. They only had one good player in the middle.

They knew that we didn’t have great passers. And we couldn’t take advantage of them missing their top hitter.

We swept them, it was our goal.

They played their hearts out all weekend. The players really stepped up this tournament, including Donnie Hansen, who showed great court awareness and Pablo Segura did well in the tournament.

It was pretty much what I expected. We didn’t play down to the competition.

It was good because everybody got to play. In a game like this it’s good to change the line up so other league coaches won’t know what to expect.

The way we started out it made the first game almost look like a fluke. But then we settled down and played better.

It was a good experience for the team. The timing was good and I plan for us to do it again next season.

In our league, the teams play quicker and set faster so it is hard to defend. We have to raise our tempo, we’re not quite there yet.

I think (the break) had something to do with us starting off flat. We did have practices during the week off, but Monday was the first full practice because we had the whole team there.

I preferred that they played. Because we beat them with their full team and the playoff seeding committee can look at that.

In our first two matches, we jumped out ahead early and stayed ahead. They stayed focused on their own.

We just can’t get over the Clovis/Clovis West hump. We can play with them but they have to prove it themselves, it’s going to be a battle every time we face them.

We started off losing game three but we battled back.

I was hoping the team that beat Sanger in the first game of the season would show up.

Facing better competition would have helped us for league. I think the real competition was in Santa Barbara.

Clayton Valley is better than Clovis and Clovis West. Our players took care of business in game one, fell asleep in game two, and were winning most of the time in game three before they...

I thought we were gonna take it. We went up 2-0 and Donnie (Hansen) had some monster blocks to start off with.

He could do no wrong in that game. He came ready to play with a great all-around game.

We had a mental dysfunctional breakdown. It was not pretty. After game two, it was like another volleyball team was out there. The passing was terrible and our defense didn’t keep us in the game.

We were there neck and neck with them. We got a few bad calls and they (Clovis West) ran off with it.

Pleasant Valley had a played a game before us and they weren’t playing starters in that game. We had watched them and maybe got a little too confident before the game.
