7 Quotes by Dan Flannery

We have a young team, and our guys faced some adversity early in the meet but turned things around and did what they had to do. Our depth took over, and we won some close races. I was really pleased with the performance coming out of winter break.

My kids feel vindicated. Losing the dual meet to Valley was rough. They weren't too good of sports after beating us, and my kids didn't forget that.

We almost pulled it out. Only .31-hundredths of a second is keeping us from talking about a tie right now.

Those three freshmen have a lot of big-meet experience, and that's going to pay off for them. They're a lot more mature than freshmen I've had in the past. They're all wildcards for us going into the state meet, but I feel real confident about their abilities. They're real focused and positive.

What goes around comes around in this sport, I guess.

This has always been a great rivalry. We lost this one, but the guys will wake up tomorrow and the sun will still be shining. We don't have to hear about the (winning) streak anymore; it's kind of nice to have that off our backs. We'll see Valley again at conference and state.

A lot of guys had amazing swims to keep us in the meet.
