QUOTE OF THE DAY
“It was a very emotional time. I think it’s the first time my wife or daughter have been to an away game. They had a great time and got to witness this. But it’s not about me; it’s about the young people on this team. I’m just so thrilled that they got the taste of victory. It’s been a long time for us, and we know that and we are working hard on it. It’s a very special group that keeps fighting, and they wanted me to have the game ball. I told them it’s not about me it’s about us.”
