Tim Kearney Quotations

Forest Park is one of the top teams in the region. We knew going in that they have quality players. They have a specific pattern they play. We asked our guys to do a few things, but they didn't execute the way I wish they had, but even so I am not disappointed with the effort.

I saw us losing it toward the end of the first half. We asked them to do specific things at halftime, and they didn't do it.

Carter wants the ball. He worked hard tonight. Corey Sims as always worked hard. On the two goals, he can't be doing everything.

The soccer Gods aren't in our favor right now. We are getting a lot of bad breaks. Good teams create good luck. We're getting better. I liked what I saw out a lot of guys tonight.

Phillip is just a hard-nosed player. He's more of a defensive player. We're hoping Kyle Masson works out. He has very good speed. Speed can do an awful lot.

Outside of the inexperience our other big concern will be the lack of size. In the Commonwealth District that was a major concern, I'm assuming it will be one in the Cedar Run as well.

I think it's a lack of commitment. We have a real gap. We have the Comets, a 18-and-younger team. Then you go all the way to 13-and-younger. There's a five-year gap where there's no travel soccer.

We have some strong players. Cory, Carter Mills, Bram Simms all play at a very high level. I see that to be our strength. I don't see them as the guys that can carry the team. We need to find a few others that play all-year round that need to step up.

The kid is probably going to do some things for us. Felix with size and really good speed, we're hoping to see something from him.

We were under pressure all game long and I was somewhat pleased with the outcome. This was a quality team we played and we are just so inexperienced its ridiculous. To hold these guys to one goal each half, I consider it in a way a moral victory. I think it is going to do nothing but help our team.
