13 Quotes by Kirk Schmaltz

We're trying to find where kids can help our team and get some confidence. Indoor meets are non-scoring meets, so you can move people around and experiment a bit. You can find out what you really have before you put together your full lineup for the outdoor season.

It was an outstanding team effort. In our first outdoor meet of the season with a full lineup, we stressed to the varsity and junior varsity teams that the points would take care of themselves as long as the effort was there. It was an outstanding effort.

It just really helps having all those points coming out of the field events. It gives us a little bit of a cushion to start the running events.

The kids want to go down and face the best competition in the state and see what we can do. They're not so much interested in sending a message; they just want to go down there and have a season-best performance, and that will serve notice. This is a really good mid-season check to see where we're at.
