You probably credit their defense for that. They were well prepared and they did a good job of frustrating our guys.

He fits the club very well. He provides a great deal of energy, he can play defense and run the bases and he hits left-handed pitching very well.

Since he?s been here, he?s been the heart and soul of our defense. I don?t know what the situation is, but hopefully it?s nothing serious.

We went two series of game situations and that was a pretty good test for our defense. We forced two turnovers and capitalized on both. It’s good to come out on the end when you...

It requires the Defense Department and the State Department to be joined at the hip in terms of how to build these program and the countries they choose.

We’re watching it very carefully. We have certainly seen signs that (Saddam Hussein is) attempting to reconstruct his air defense abilities north of the 32nd parallel.

I thought we played pretty good defense. But for that long drive we kept them in check.

We just worked as a team, won the 50-50 balls and passed well. And we really played good defense.

We played good defense the rest of the game. But we made a couple of mistakes, and they took the lead and we were unable to come back on them.

We probably learned the ins and outs of (the 46 defense) in two days, but it took about 10 years to really put it into action,

I just think as the game went on, you could see our defense get a little more comfortable and a little more comfortable.

I give our kids a lot of credit for coming up with that third quarter. We didn’t play bad defense in the first half but we rushed some things and didn’t move the ball against...

For four days we played really good defense, all five guys on the floor. And on offense we can hurt you in a lot of different ways.

I thought our defense was tremendous.

We had our two best players frozen on the bench for four minutes. Both teams played defense with their hands. We got called for it. They didn’t.

It was fine going back to the old position. I was trying to get the defense some help, but I came up a little short.

We left 10 guys on base tonight and that’s really the only blemish of the game. We played good defense and got pitching and hit the ball hard, but 10 guys left on base is...

Our offense was our best defense today. We wanted to come out at the first whistle and taking it to them.

We’re a team. That’s the key–every guy, on offense, defense and special teams–we all play as a team. Everybody came together and did our part. You want to make sure everything is clicking at this...

Defense wins championships. He (Howland) always uses other teams as examples in every other sport to show that the top defensive team in that sport generally is the winner.

We had to play defense. We didn’t get the stop we needed and that’s that.

He just knows he doesn’t have to be the focal point of this defense. We don’t need him to get 10 sacks. We have two guys that can do that.

We’re not playing defense, … We’re not defending or rebounding the ball. That’s taking away a lot of baskets because we can’t run and we can’t stop anybody.

Our strength is our defense. We try to pride ourselves on defense because we feel that when we execute it correctly, we can create plays on offense and hopefully make some open shots. These past...

We couldn’t come up with the key hits. And we weren’t mentally prepared on defense. To win, you have to play every play, and we didn’t do that today.

We are going to continue to work on hitting and defense. The Page tournament will help shape up our defense.

The apologist is most entrusted with apologetics when capable of arguing his opponent’s position better than his opponent.

I will not debate with you Dark Elf. By the swords of the Noldor alone are your sunless woods defended. Your freedom to wander there wild you owe to my kin and but for them...

(Wisconsin) is a team that made its mark playing great defense. (Friday night) they played solid. But the big difference was Glenn Fisher for us. He kept us in the game in the first period....

He came to play as a senior and helped take the pressure of Jimmy. He could play defense or forward.

We stepped up our defense. We put more pressure on the outside and they only had three field goals in the second half.

We needed more people to step up and score. I was displeased with the defense down the stretch, but we know we’re going to have to turn things around to make a run at state.

We still played good defense in the first half, but our shots just weren’t falling, … Our defense was clicking. In the second half, we just started knocking them down. We were attacking, and our...

Our defense does a lot for us. Nine points in a half, that’s pretty good defense.

Our second half pressure defense helped us win the game.

Early on, our defense wasn’t really good. They were taking the ball to the basket, so we went to a zone defense, and although they hit some 3s, we took their penetration away and it...

In the second half, we were able to shut down their post game, and cause havoc on defense.

In the first quarter, we came out with a lot of energy and played good defense. All the girls played well.

He’s done everything we’ve asked him to. He’s worked very hard on his defense and played very well defensively.

Once he stopped trying to hit home runs all the time and accepted that defense was his No. 1 priority and that he was better hitting line drives, he became the player that fans will...

The defense has been giving us great opportunities.

The artificial primacy of defense among our national priorities is a constant unearned windfall for some, but it’s privation for the rest of America; it steals from what we could be and can do. In...

We’re older on defense than we’ve been the last couple years. We had been playing a lot of freshmen and sophomores. Now we’re predominantly juniors.

We got off to kind of a slow start. The second and third quarters, we clamped down on defense and were able to get some easy baskets in transition.

We’re very different football players. We play different positions. The defense calls us to do different things as well.

Every time I get the ball, I get double-teamed. I respect the defense. I’m giving it up.

We played very well defensively. That’s what we preach. We want to play defense and hit the boards.

That hurt us on defense and on the boards.

We pride ourselves on tough pressure defense, and all year we have not shot the ball well. So we have to come out and make sure that we defend well to set a tone.

Our defense was spectacular tonight. It just keeps getting stronger.
