O. Henry Knew Quotations

If men knew how women pass the time when they are alone, they'd never marry.

Oh yeah, for sure. Just for our guys, really. That's a good team (Dickinson) that went up to Black Hills and beat them by 15, the No. 1 team in the conference, and we handled them in the second half. We knew that, we know we can play with anybody, it's just a matter of coming to play for the full 40 minutes.

I was able to get into a little bit of a rhythm there. The biggest thing was getting ahead. Once I got ahead I could start to mix in off-speed stuff, keep them guessing and off-balance. In the first inning I'd be 2-0 and everybody in the park knew I was going to throw a fastball. Once I settled down it made things a lot easier.

Pinch me, I can't believe it. The girls played fantastic. They are so focused and knew that this is what they wanted to do.

We were all very relaxed -- that's how I knew it would be a fast race.

The team they had in the playoffs was totally different from the team we played earlier in the season. We knew that coming in.

As a captain me, Sean and Chris had been on the team since we were freshmen so we knew the role we had to play as leaders on the team. If things were down, we had to pull the rest of the team out of the troubles. Knowing we had been there for four years we were used to the practices, going to the tournament and the difference between playing against rivals.

They knew going in that it was very likely Theo was coming back and this was a way to keep things on the same set of tracks.

Any time you get a blocked shot, a big rebound, (or) a dunk, it can ease your nerves and makes it easier to play after that. But I knew the game wasn't over, and I kept that in mind afterward.

The last two years they knocked us out so we had to return the favor this year. It wasn't easy by any means especially at their place. It was definitely a battle and I knew it would be going in. We didn't get intimidated and we just kept playing like we have been.
