Tim Koth Quotations

We could put ourselves at a real disadvantage if we lose both of those matches, but we could also put ourselves in a good spot if we win both. I won't shy away from the fact that both of these (matches) are big for us.

Although on paper we are young, we are not inexperienced. Last season we went to the NCAA Regional Championship starting three freshman. They learned a great deal from that experience, and I expect it will carry over this fall.

They're returning a lot of players who have played a lot or started for them (last year). They're a decent team, but they're also a team that I think we match up well with, and we should have the opportunity to do well against them.

They're deep and extremely athletic. And they're more like us right now in that they're learning each other and learning their system and still working toward an optimum level of play. ... I think Grand Valley and (Northwood) will be much better teams in November than they are right now.
