Jim Boyd Quotes
You look at him and you think, 'Oh my gosh, I don't know if I can count on him,' and then he starts running with the ball and no one is going to bring him down... He runs so hard and so determined to get into the end zone and that's his trademark.

What really sparked us was we ran an option on the right side and Brandon pitched it at the last second and it went to Chris Newman and we thought he was out of bounds, but he turns it up field and goes 50 yards for a touchdown. That gives us momentum and I think the next drive we get down in kicking range and big Joe does a great job with a 37-yard field goal and that really pumps us up.

We need a little payback for Storm Lake last year. They kind of ruined our season and we haven't forgotten that. We want to show people we can play well against them. They're a very good team, a very physical team. They like to throw a lot, so it's going to give us a different set of problems. We want to rise to the occasion and come back with a victory in week two (of district play).

We just didn't have the ball. I think at one point they had the ball for 20 minutes and we had it a total of six... When we got the ball we had terrible field position, so it was a situation where we couldn't do what we wanted to do. We struggled for quite a bit of that ballgame, but the kids came through when we had to come through.

We get the ball back somewhere around the 30-yard line and we're out of timeouts... We're scrambling. We try to put together some plays to try and get into the end zone, but the reality of the whole thing is Caleb broke off his route and went into the end zone and Brandon threw him another perfect pass. Caleb makes an exceptional catch and now we're tied up and we got :05 on the clock.

We challenged them in the second half and said if we're going to win the ballgame, it's going to be up front. Those kids really came through for us... I'm very excited. There's not too many seasons I start out feeling that great about our line and the way we're playing, but I think they're even going to get better.
