I was a little worried about scheduling another game with the Quakers. We seemed so tired for most of the part of the last two weeks. For most of the first and second period our play was, in fact, listless. Thankfully, for whatever reason, we woke up in the third. We looked like we wanted to win. I'm glad I didn't have to wait until the last two or three minutes of the game, as I did against The Hill JV. Scoring three goals in the final period, we regained a little of our lost intensity. I was happy too, that our power play seemed more effective. While our passes were not particularly crisp, and our body movement was still lethargic, those passes we did make were effective. We did score three of our six goals on the power play. We play Caravel Academy on Thursday of this week. Members of last year's team.....you know how hard our games against Caravel were last year. They were both one goal games, one win and one loss. I expect more of the same this year. This game will be especially tough, since we will be without five key players. We have three games left. How is the season going to end? What are YOU going to do?

One day, during the 1983 Stanley Cup, we'd just lost Game Three and we were down three games to none. We were practicing and afterward my dad came down to me and said, "Why did you practice today?" "Because I had to," I said. "Everybody had to." "Well you shouldn't have. You just wasted your time and theirs. You didn't give and effort." That was the last we talked about it until later that summer. We were at my grandmother's house and she was out in the sun working in the garden, and my dad comes up to me and says, "Look at that, seventy-none and she's still working hard and you're twenty-three and when you're in the Stanley Cup finals, you won't even practice!" Ever since then, the highest compliment you can pay me is to say that I work hard every day, that I never dog it.-- Wayne Gretzky

Wherever I've been, as long as someone was paying my salary, I've tried to give a dollar and twenty-five cents in work for every dollar paid me. In other words, I might not win, but the effort would be there.-- Casey Stengel
