Dave Redden Quotations

Jon doesn't realize how good he is. He could've finished higher up in the pack. I liked that he finished high up there, but I really expect a whole lot more out of him.

We focused our better individuals in the relays to get some points, and that really helped us out. Our relay teams did very well.

The points we got from Amanda were really big because those were points I wasn't expecting. She ran a great race. I expected the 30 points from the field events and between nine and 12 points from the relays and we got nine, so we did about as well as I expected us to.

We had some good performances today. Winning seven titles in a row is nice, but now we're looking ahead to our eighth with as young as this team is.

We've never won the boys end of it, so that was a big focus for us. It's hard to sustain a good program when you don't have the proper facilities. So to see how good this team performed and the character of these kids, it's just wonderful.

Brooke did very well with being injured. We didn't really know how far we could push her with that injured quad, so she didn't do all the things she would have done had she been healthy, but she did very well. We got 30 points out of the field events, and that's great in a meet like this.

Scoring 44 points in this big of a meet is a nice accomplishment. We did a lot of things well today.

This is the meet where we really start gearing up the for the sectional. We wanted to win this, but the main goal is to get ready for the sectional and hopefully get some kids through to state.

It was a weak day as far as I'm concerned. We'll just have to keep working.

I'm pleased with the way our runners ran. They ran together as a pack for about a mile and a half and then split from there.
