Kevin Quinn Quotations

I would consider that to be an advantage -- in that we don't have to travel, and the rink is five minutes from our district. We expect a very high turnout from our community, and even though they had a lot of fans at their game in their district, we'll see how committed their fans are.

We're glad that the comptroller is supporting many of the budget reform initiatives the governor has advocated for years, such as greater openness and transparency, a balanced enacted budget, higher rainy day reserves, binding revenue forecasts, and moving the start of the fiscal year.

She's handling the pressure of the big meets really well this season.

He's been excellent this year. He's a key part of our success.

We train here at Willow Park, so we're comfortable in the hills here, ... We have been working on the hills a lot and they're very familiar with them. The amount of hill repeats and training that we do here certainly helped them today.

I think they probably think they have an advantage, being there before, but it may be an advantage for us that they're thinking that they're expected to win and with us going in as an underdog. I don't like to look at variables like that, but I know that if our kids play the way we know they can, we'll be fine.

Mekenzie's running strong. I think Mekenzie's strength today was in the hills and knowing exactly where the hills were on the course.

I think they'll get on with their lives, get more sleep.

Our staff has been meeting today with advocates and also with members of the Legislature

Our biggest advantage this year is our youth. Our biggest disadvantage this year is our youth. They are a very willing group. We have a lot of great athletes, but a lot have never run cross country before.

Our first team goal was to get an opportunity to get to (the Penguins Cup game). Now that we've won it, obviously our road doesn't end until we win our last game and that's the state championship.

We hope to attract a segment of Chester and Montgomery counties where we've yet to establish a presence.

That's the team that we've been battling the last couple of years.

The police response was excellent and the bomb squad was here in 12 minutes. It was an unfortunate situation but it ran smoothly. The students were very mature and excellent in terms of their cooperation.

We were able to take advantage of the fact that Brattleboro was not at full strength today,

We only have three seniors. We have a big sophomore class and freshmen class. Obviously we hope we can do this again next year.

We placed students in a safe zone and I did take command of the situation. The resources responded in a timely manner. Station 3 was available and a number of firefighters were on call. West Kingston was also on alert.

We're getting steady, solid grouping, ... What were were focusing on was trying to close the gap between one and the group today and that seemed to happen. They're very consistent, but you never know what order they're going to come in, which is kind of nice for a coach.

We stress balance. Balance is key. I think what's hurt us in the past is we had one really good line and if they didn't come through on their chances to score in big games, we weren't winning because we couldn't fall back upon the second or third lines.

We started the program nine years ago with kids that were just learning to play hockey, so this is a fulfilling day for me and a lot of original parents who helped for the organization. We're extremely proud of these kids, particularly, and for all the people who laid the groundwork.

We feel with this team we have the opportunity to go further. We want to compete for a Penguin Cup and state championship. This year is the year we want to get there.

They agreed that while the intent of the proposal is to improve customer service, if customers are satisfied with the current system, DMV should keep the current system in place.

We had a good time last semester and are planning even more for the fall.

We wanted to change the match-up in the third period.

We are still looking for qualified people who want to do this.

We did a lot of running this summer together,

The governor has made it clear that if a responsible version of the bill is advanced, which protects our children by ensuring that they receive appropriate and responsible individualized medical care, the governor would support it.

There was a battle going on to keep it (fastball) in the Pan Am program.

I'm just so proud of these kids. It's been a long journey, but a great journey we've enjoyed along the way. Knowing these kids as long as I've known them, I'm really happy for them.

I've had him for a long time, and I'm extremely proud of him and what he's done for our program. He's our all-time leading scorer. I can't even count how many times he's come through in the clutch for us. We're certainly going to miss him.

That's always a nice thing when you get two of your kids to finish in the top spot.

He's one of the top goalies in the league. He's only lost a handful of games in the last three years.

I didn't think we'd get the grouping from all five of the guys that we did. That was just a fantastic display of grouping in cross country and that really went great.

He's the complete package. He stops the ones he shouldn't stop and he stops the ones he should, and then you add in the fact that he's a third defensemen back there. He's an incredibly gifted skater. He's a special guy.

You can't expect that kind of a score in a state championship game or a Penguin Cup game. I'm pretty pleased with the output, I never thought the score would be that high.

These are horrible actions, and the governor would strongly support new legislation to punish those who use innocent animals to transport illegal narcotics.

It's a good feeling and a good opportunity to get that number one seed. That's been our goal all year.

Those two goals were obviously big. We talked about getting a fast start. The last time we played them, a fast start helped us as well. And the game they beat us this year, they got up on us. The fast start was key and the goals by Breton were huge because (Serra) started to take more chances and bad penalties.

It's been a great journey because we enjoyed it along the way. There's been a lot of great people, a lot of great kids and coaches over the years. Knowing these kids for all these years, I'm really happy for them.

I can't tell you how many times he's come through with big goals for us.

He's one of the best musicians in the area.
