Cut Quotes
The 3-point shooting didn't surprise us. We knew that was their strength last year and this year. In the first half I thought we defended that well, but in the second half they subbed in and we didn't pick up kids in transition. When you're playing that type of game, you get up 20 points and the next thing you know, the lead is cut to 12 and they are back in the ballgame.
-
Central Quotes
That was a nice little surprise that the guys over at Lawrence Central gave us. (Winning Conference Indiana titles) is something we've been very successful with. Every year you try to win as many games as you can, but the conference and (Marion) County (Tournament) are big deals. There'll be a little more incentive Friday night.

Arc Quotes
I was really impressed with the brakes. They could stop on a dime. The acceleration was incredible. But the biggest surprise to me was how you go out and get such great speed, and as you turn down off the back straightaway, I can't believe how hard the wheel gets going into turn 10. As you arc off into there, the steering wheel's locked up. It's amazing.
-
Believe Quotes
I was rapt with the win. I was never worried. I was only concerned that our preparation just wasn't long enough and he would get tired. I believe that was the best he showed so far. That wasn't our best preparation. But unlike some of his other fights, he never seemed to have any real lull. That was a surprise to me and made me feel good. I was very proud of him. He showed a lot of balls. He took a lot and stayed with Gabi the whole fight.
-
Attempt Quotes
We do make a large attempt at being self-supporting. We were basically taken by surprise by the cuts. We're trying to stay in business long enough to get funding at the next legislative session. In the past, Morton and Burleigh counties have never had to pay, so we come hat in hand to see if you'll help us get through this awkward time for us.
-
Against Quotes
Well, it was a little bit of surprise that it happened the way it did. I was very happy with the way we competed and played to win the game against Minnesota, but the unexpected came after the game when we heard about Duluth and I don't think anyone anticipated Duluth losing. But it was a pleasant surprise that luck worked out for us and things fell into place.
-

By putting people at the center of our software design and delivering software solutions that drive business value and work the way our customers work, we are furthering our efforts to help small businesses reach their full potential in today's economy.

Anybody Quotes
We never have put a lot of stock in having to beat a team two or three times because we have had to do it so much, but we always like to play a different team. It's always good to get a shot to play somebody you've never played before and keeps you motivated. But Capital is playing as well as anybody right now. And it wouldn't surprise me at all if they won.

Again Quotes
You have pretty light volume ahead of the Fed meeting. You also had the Dow have one of its best weeks in 15 years last week, so you're going to see some pullback from that. Airlines are down again and it's pressuring the broader market, particularly the Dow. US Airways' filing wasn't a surprise but it still sets a negative tone.
-
Bulk Quotes
We opened the day stronger and continued a little higher, and then as a slight surprise to some, ended up holding the positive tone throughout the day - whereas sometimes on days like this in the past you've given up the bulk of those gains. Silver, specifically, closed relatively close to the highs.
-
Adjustment Quotes
We opened lower ... on the increase in the ending stocks figure in the U.S. and the increase in the world ending stocks. We digested that report and really didn't generate much as far as any follow-through trade. The world ending stocks were a little bit of a surprise being up that sharply, though an adjustment to the Brazilian numbers and then also an increase in Chinese production.
-
Age Quotes
We had some guys missing because we're still on spring break, and we're a very young team to begin with. It came as a surprise to me we ended up winning the meet. We have something like eight sophomores and two freshmen. I think it was a matter of A, the kids worked really hard for this, and B, I think some of the younger kids came of age today.
-
Beat Quotes
We beat a variety of teams, so to me nothing should surprise us. They've got a lot of tradition and they always have a lot of great athletes. We just have to go out and have fun and enjoy being there because we deserve to be there. We're not a big team and we're going to be working a lot on boxing out. But we're undersized and we went out and beat a team like Reynoldsburg that's got some big guys." ()

Aggressive Quotes
We were aggressive at the start and worked well, although we were lucky to score from our first opportunity. We kept our composure after they were reduced to ten men and were content to simply control the game. It was very important we won ahead of the Barcelona tie. We know they're a great team but we also know that we can surprise them. Anything is possible.
