Quotes by Steve Ray
Anytime you go into a tournament, you want to have a winning record. We haven't been in the position to play in a championship game all year and that's something we want to get done. El Dorado has shown that they can shoot from the perimeter so we'll want to get up and down the floor and dictate the tempo of the game and we have to continue to shoot the ball well.

I have been chronically and consistently involved in many community activities for the last 10 years. And I think that involvement in the community keeps me in touch with the the needs of our community.
Many people are concerned about not only the shortage of people who can run for public office, but also the shortage of people to serve on nonprofit boards.
