Don August Quotations

We're trying to serve more aggressive. We work very hard on serving every day in practice. If we back off, especially against good teams, they will pound away on us. We want to make the other team work hard to pick up our serve. We don't want to make it easy to hit the ball back at us.

We were not ready to play. The matches we won, everybody contributed and the most we lost everybody contributed. I believe by the end of the season we'll be a pretty good team. To finish in the top half at this tournament is a good sign.

To their credit they never quit. It was one of those frustrating nights where we kept shooting ourselves in the foot but kept fighting. We didn't lose because of a lack of effort. We lost because of a lack of execution at critical times.

We challenged New Trier a little bit in the second game. New Trier is just a little better than us right now.
