Willie Smith Quotations

Things got a little bit anxious after we started fouling out. But we had some guys who came off the bench to step up, and they pulled us through.

I'm very excited about going to a program that is building. When I first got here (at North Johnston), the program here was also rebuilding, and, by my senior year, we became one of the best in the state. I hope I can help to do the same thing at ECU.

I noticed it's a family atmosphere. The kids get excited about seeing the animals. It's a good event.
