Tom Peterson Good Quotations

Stanford is a scrappy, hard-working team. They may not have a very good record but any team in this league can bite you on any given night.

Stanford is a scrappy, hardworking team. They may not have a very good record, but any team in this league can bite you on any given night. We don't want to be outworked by them. We will have to play well to win.

I think the players are in a pretty good frame of mind. We're confident in our talent and all of that. If we want to put it together, we're very tough for anybody.

We're a good offensive team but we passed the ball poorly and we weren't very good with ball control. It was disappointing for a team to come into our house and overpower us like that.

We played a very good and consistent team. We showed that we can win but we aren't consistent enough. We need to improve our ball control. We didn't pass and serve well tonight. If we can improve that, we'll be better.

The tournament was a good experience. We've been trying to focus on serve and serve receive and to ensure our chemistry and intensity are good over time. I thought we played with chemistry and were consistent for the most part this weekend.

We need to get better ball control, but we feel we're getting better. The whole team has the perception that we're a different team than even a few weeks ago. We've got a good shot to play well against Long Beach State.

They have three of the best players in the country. Those three guys are as good as anybody, and when they put it together, they can be great.

It's not how we wanted to end the season. We played a very good team that is excellent at their place. They did the things they needed to do to beat us, namely ball control. Congratulations to them. They are well coached.

It's been a while since we've played someone this good on the road at sea level. It will be a big test.
