“The other team had a lot more Afro-American players than we did and they ran a lot faster than we did.”
Fisher DeBerry
“This a great opportunity to be around the game. Obviously, there will be a little bit more responsibility. As (the) hitting coach (last season), I was kind of lurking in the shadows whereas the manager has to deal with hitters, the pitchers, the front office and the fans. It's a bigger responsibility, but one I accept and look forward to.”
Aaron Nieckula
“It seemed like they were really skating faster than normal; they really wanted it. Our team is built on a lot of skill, a lot of teamwork. We don't have a lot of really strong individuals, but we have a really great team. It's really built on the Army standard of playing together, good passing ... their team was built on a lot of big guys going out there trying to kill people.”
Eric Peltzer
“Seton was just a bigger, faster team. And there were a lot of them out there too, so they were able to stay fresh.”
Larry Schmit
“They're a quick team, but I told him that the puck moves faster than they can skate. He's a very, very good passer and sees the ice very well.”
Trent Yawney
“We're going to be faster as a team. I think we could be a much better offensive rebounding team,”
Bill Self
“Wins are nice, but faster times are better. I think for a lot of the team it has been nice to find out that they can swim fast no matter how terrible they feel in the water.”
