(The friend) got tripped up on his own story right there on the witness stand.

These kids don't know it, but they are on the cutting edge of ecological restoration.

These are not high school graduation pictures. They found the most ugly, disturbing photo of my client to put in the paper.

I'm not planning on going back. I was renting. I spent time in the (New Orleans) Convention Center. With all the lies we've had to deal with from that point until now, I'm not going back.

That's a question that's been out there without an answer.

After that play it got so loud it was crazy. We just looked at each other and said, 'Come on, we can do this.' We stuck together and did everything our coach told us to do.

They were able to use the physicality to tell a story despite their young age. But when they saw it first-hand, it brought them closer to understanding what it really meant.

That five-point play was the turning point. That got us within six points and the kids started to believe they could win.

For lack of a better term, it looks like they?re on a mission. I think they?re tired of hearing how good (South Medford) teams are but can never win the big one at state. They?re dedicated to changing that perception.

This is the nature of the people we are dealing with. These are three troubled young men with anger problems, alcohol problems and the inability to tell the truth (on the stand).
