Scott Matthews Quotations

No one knows what the environmental costs of messing up the existing infrastructure will be.

She's kept us in a number of games. We're a D-II team playing five or six D-I teams. The difference is the speed. D-I comes at you in waves.

Here at the Green Design Initiative, we're concerned that most will go to landfills,

Our press wore them down in the third quarter.

I think we did what we set out to do. We had certain plays we tried to work on.

Those are the kinds of strides we've made.

We wanted to mix things up and bring Kristy into the game. We haven't played a strong team in a couple of weeks and it can get very lonely back there in goal. We saw this as an opportunity to have some fun and maintain morale.

That was the whole game right there. They were able to score without having to make a basket.

We're basically getting it done with five seniors and a junior.

We were down a key player in each of those games and they were close (one-goal losses) with the exception of Burlington and the psyche got to the girls a little there. We played really well and were competitive with the D-I teams so this is a big game for us.

We've been preaching to the girls that we've been in playoff mode since last Monday (when Rutland went back to practice after defeating cross-town rival Mount St. Joseph). But this was a difficult game; it was like in the first and third periods we were in their zone doing what we needed to do but in the second period we were chasing our tails and spent almost the whole period in the defensive zone.

As they come, we ask to see their number. Sometimes they have to dig down under several layers of clothing because the start is up in elevation. We get some funny looks. Who would get up at 4 a.m. in the morning if they weren't going to run?

Stover's presence was just a little too much tonight.

Sometimes stories get embellished, ... But it's a special event with the city.

Sometimes stories get embellished. But it's a special event with the city.

Television is an evolving situation. We have made some changes. That's not unusual in the TV game. The concept that 'If your contract is coming up, you're in trouble,' is wrong. We've extended or come to new agreements with existing people in recent months. ... If people think there will be wholesale housecleaning, that's not accurate.

Think outside the box as to what to do with these things, ... When you run out of family members to pass things on to, don't store them--recycle them.

I'm proud of where this program is. Clarksville's not a basketball school, and here we're taking the No. 1 team in the state to overtime. We've made tremendous strides.

The biggest thing I was happy with was that we maintained our level of play. In the past when we've played teams a little below us, we've skated down.

The key to our win was our goaltending and our defense. Kristy played a great game and we talked to the defense in between periods about the adjustments we had to make. (Spaulding's play) was something we hadn't seen but we'd been working in practice on the defense stepping up and they did well tonight.

We found that the equipment is not going to landfills in the volume we thought they would, ... But the problem isn't solved. It's delayed. People aren't throwing the equipment away. They're storing their computers. Even here, where we know better, we have rooms full of computers.
