Chris Shaw Quotations

Watching the talent, enthusiasm and the dedication of all the students reinforced why I chose this profession 20 years ago.

We want to build on the successes of last year. We can't get caught up in resting on our laurels or dwelling on what we accomplished,

But, that's over. We are excited about the upcoming season.

We're obviously not good enough to just show up and win.

Our intention is to keep the ball rolling and have constant promotion of the series.

Our question mark is in the back. We lost a few and our goalie. We are young in the back, but talented,

We had had the 20-3 season, and saw we can compete at a higher level. At that point, we knew we needed to get some tougher teams on schedule. You have to walk before you run, and we don't want to keep fighting an uphill battle. You have to be ready before you put the big dogs on the schedule.

The students have worked tirelessly all year with constant energy and motivation.

This is one of those days where you get the feeling things aren't going to go right, and they continue to not go right,

It will be a question of how quick they grasp our style of play and develop the level of confidence they need to be successful.

It means a lot. We know a lot of families are having a difficult time. ... The people down there who are having all these troubles can sit back, relax and enjoy it.
