(Grand Rapids-Greenway) is a program on the rise. Both teams were mirror images as far as efforts.

The kids played as smartly as we've ever played.

It's just a great rivalry between these two teams.

Some people thought we were going to lie down and lose 15-0. But our kids don't do that. I'm biased, but I think our kids work harder than anybody.

This year we get shots but don't score much.

We had a lot of heart. And that's what enabled us to stay with them.

That was as satisfying a win as we've ever had here.

Our games against Hibbing are always like this.

Our goalie played great, playing in the shadow (of last year's Minnesota Associated Press player of year Johanna Ellison). She handled it so well this year. I'm so proud of her.

I thought we had them on the ropes a little bit, anyway. You saw us blocking shots and giving everything we had. That's what we're known for.
