Ron Hunerdosse Quotations

When we can mix in our young kids in the relays, that's always good. We do that whenever we can. Nothing helps your confidence like success.

We ran lights out. You know you're running well when you can run as fast as we did by ourselves.

What I'd like to see is our team break school records they already have. Then break them again when we come up in May. It's time for some of the records to go.

Overall, it was a good meet for us. Iowa City West was strong everywhere, and Mount Pleasant is also very good, and the competition was just what we needed. Most of our kids responded well to the toughness of the meet.

We competed at another level tonight. We had a really great night and, to some extent, a trying one. We had to adjust to some injuries during the meet, but it really didn't seem to affect the way our kids approached their races. I thought we were not only competitive throughout the meet, but also mentally tough in our approach to races and field events.

This was easily the best Drake Relays Fairfield High School has ever had. And I've seen most of them.

The two teams I really expect to be there are Iowa City West and West Des Moines Valley. I really hope that happens. It will allow us to see how fast we can run. We have three with a lot of experience and one with no experience. You just never know how they'll react. On the plus side, no one has run faster than we have. It won't be easy, but we don't want it to be.
