Rick Vernon Quotations

Going back to the '60's, we're one of the only schools that plays them year in and year out. When you play somebody for that period of time you're going to have that rivalry.

Last week was very important in that we had a lot of very inexperienced football players and until you get them in that first varsity contest, you really don't know how the players are going to react in that type of setting. We felt they reacted very well.

Our kids are ready. They're looking forward to the challenge.

They're adding some new touches to their offense and defense because of the experience they do have.

You want to eliminate the big plays, make them drive the field. On offense, we've got to be very aware of what we're going against. Turnovers will be very important in this game.
