Glenn Thiel Quotations

He has to be close to death to not go out there and face off at a crucial time in the game. We hope we have a couple kids who can go out there and take some pressure off, but he's a warrior. He's the kind of guy who wants to be out there.

It's bad pub for Duke, and it's bad pub for the sport, no question.

We didn't deserve to win the game. It was one of the worst performances in poise and intelligence we've ever had. I thought we had better athletes, better stick skills and were better at handling the ball.

We have a freshman goalie who people are really going to like. If Drew stays healthy, he's going to be a very good goalie.

It isn't easy when you've got the pressure on, the question always is are you going to do it or not going to do it. How many basketball players can't make a free throw; this time you have a goalie in there, it's a little different.

He was the difference-maker. You couldn't ask for anything more.

We know what have to do. We needed this week to rest our guys up.

If we don't come to play, we'll be in trouble. Hopefully we realize that.

We are just trying to fight through some things injury wise. We're just trying to get some continuity in practice.

Our defense is certainly very different from last year. We couldn't do too many things last year, we had a freshman in the cage who wasn't the kind of athlete that Drew is, so we had to adjust what we did defensively. We can do more things now. We can play some different styles because Drew can make the big save.
