“He's the anchor of our lineup. I think he's going to have a strong year.”
Brian Hartman
“Lew [Leone] and I think it's probably not a good idea to have one anchor team muscle through three shows. We thought we needed to create a new team. [The 6 p.m. slot] is not our strongest, and I think adding some teams may add some momentum.”
Scott Matthews
“I think that having one person as your primary anchor is the way to go. I give ABC a lot of credit for trying a lot of new things. Anyone who says that the way the evening news has been produced and presented for the last 25 years is the way to go probably shouldn't be running a news division. Having said that, I don't think there's any reason to tear up the format and break the mold.”
Sean McManus
“Monica ran strong legs on both of those as well. She also anchored our 4 x 400 relay team to a time that is second best in the north.”
Bill Devine

Tom Bettag
“He was the anchor of our line last year, ... He's always been mentally tough. That's why he was able to play as a sophomore. He's just so tough that he's able to put up with the things that go along with it, tough practices and coaching and all of that.”
City High
“Year in, year out, salmon is the one that they depend upon. It's their anchor fishery.”
