Adam and Tom have played very well, probably above what we expected. They?ve been solid.

In the beginning of the year we thought we were deep at inside linebacker,

Sara had an incredible performance today, one I would say is certainly as good as she had at the world championships last year. It was a huge, huge breakthrough for her.

You can just see it. (Quarterback) Mike Lomas and the rest of the guys on offense have a great grasp of what we?re trying to do because they haven?t had to learn a new system. They?re working on refining what they know instead of learning a new offense.

I was watching the baseball game on ESPN -- I can't even remember who the teams were now -- and I could feel it, ... You know how it feels when something wobbles and it gets to a point where it's not coming back? That's exactly how it felt and I said, 'Oh, no.'

The girls were strong all the way through. The team is still getting over some jet lag, but it was important for them to get back to the start line and test themselves against a strong field.

To be successful, we have to be able to protect Mike (Lomas) and run the ball. That?s where the offensive line comes in. We have some good young kids up there, they just need some seasoning. That?s where the stability in the offense helps because most of those kids have been in the system for two years so they know and understand the blocking schemes.

They had a chance to disintegrate, playing the teams that they played. You commend those kids for that, and you commend Jeff and his staff for holding it together because the problems they've had, it's the kind of thing that tears a team apart.
