Ron Gerlufsen Quotations

(Originally) I didn't want the pressure of having to coach him and him having to play for me. I reached the point where I wondered if he should be here (at Memorial). I felt a lot better for him and his program this season.

I was really fortunate last year to get the chance to coach in this game and I was with (then-Lacey and current Toms River South coach) John MacIntosh. I was envious that John got the chance to coach his son (Chris). I didn't think that I would ever get that chance.

A lot of it had to do with Kyle. When you're (coaching) in college you have to be ready to move every five or six years. I was living in the South and wanted to go back to a high school setting where it would be more of a normal life.

It was a really beautiful block, just a great defensive play.

I really give our kids a lot of credit to come back. It was uncharacteristic of our play this year to turn the ball over. Even after they tied the game, we just didn't really get the look we wanted.
