“Our first two games are going to be big tests heading into districts. I don't see a game we'll be dominant in, but I also don't see a game we can't win if we play well.”
“We have a lot of things to learn. We've taped practices this year to get the guys to learn even faster. Starting four sophomores at the Class 3A level can be rough, but we'll get better from this.”

“It was a possibility we could have played them in the postseason last year. It's going to be a great match-up. It might be even better if I had healthy players.”
“It's been a long time since we've been beaten like this. I wouldn't say we competed with Winterset tonight. Getting hammered at home like this is the disappointing thing.”
