J. Hoover Team Quotations

He obviously has some talent, or he wouldn't have attracted the interest of a team like Oklahoma State. He can run, throw, and he's strong. He can hit, and he has worked extremely hard to become a better player.

We've really worked hard and pushed ourselves. We've done a lot of team plans on bars and beam to emphasize consistency throughout the whole lineup, and I think that's shown us that we can work harder that we have been.

The team I really feel bad for is Indiana State. I think last year they should have been the number one seed, and this year they should have been also. The winner of the tournament is going to come out of our side of the bracket. It's going to come down to Indiana State or us.

Every time you wrestle a team like Buena you get a team that's prepared. They will give you a tough match every time, and that's exactly what they did tonight.

Cliff is just a treat to coach now. He's a team player. He works hard both in games and in practices, and he is just a joy to be around. He is always the one sticking up for teammates, and he really looks out for the other guys.
