Chris has a challenge in front of him if he wants it. He needs to challenge himself all the time like he did tonight.

Chris has one year's experience of the rally behind him, but he's not a Scandinavian so he hasn't grown up on snow and ice, and a podium could be asking a lot. He can, nevertheless, make the top six, as he showed last year that he can go fast when conditions are predictable. He can't seriously challenge the experienced Scandinavians, but he will be close.

China and India have rapidly growing economies and a great challenge for them going forward will be finding energy assets to keep their economies growing.

Because we're new to this whole thing and relatively inexperienced in dealing with everything that comes in front of us, it's equally as challenging to bring a team back from a victory and an important victory as it is from defeat.

To get a game like this under our belts and play hard, to challenge a high-caliber team like Prairie and give them a good run for their money definitely will help us out (today, in a loser-out game against Puyallup). And it says a lot about what we can do next year.

What I mean by objectivity is not the objectivity of a machine, but of a sensible human being with the mystery of personal selection at the heart of it.

He's actually come in ahead of schedule having passed the appropriate medical test, but it's been a challenge for us not being able to put out the same back-line on consecutive weekends.

He's a good receiver. He's tall (6-3), 210 pounds and runs well. It will be a real challenge for our defense.

We're optimistic the incidence rates will be driven back down. The challenge will be to get those 11-year-olds back in for their booster shot.

We make a lot of demands on them in practice about rebounding. They were up for the challenge tonight.

Greg's biggest challenge is slowing down. He's so eager to be there and do everything that I literally have to take him and slow him down. He'll do too much in one go.

He did that his whole high school career. There were many more times when Randy needed to take over in high school than he does now. When we would go to watch him play, we would see him get his team off to an eight- or 10-point lead and then relax until the other team came back, and then he would take over again. He did that his whole high school career. It?s been our biggest challenge with him, but it?s also what makes him such a special player. No matter what went on prior in the game, when the game is on the line, he?s ready to take over.

He had the same passion for this that I do. He was up to the challenge to do something different on a grander scale.

He was the heart and soul of our program the last two years. He started as a sophomore, but he was young then. The last two years, everything surrounded him on offense and defense.

He was the unsung hero in the one-day series against South Africa and Sri Lanka (in India late last year). Hopefully, he will enjoy the challenge here and bowl well.
