Don Shaw Quotes

«We were fortunate to win game one. We didn't play very well, and we squandered a lot of point-scoring opportunities. We really dug ourselves into a hole. Fortunately, Ben got hot; they couldn't handle his serve, and we were able to make up a lot of points in a hurry. That's something we don't do very often, but when we do, it's a pleasant surprise.»

«Pulling out game one was key. In these matches, especially with teams that are kind of evenly matched as far as ranking and all that, that first game can be critical. Winning the first game helped us gain momentum.»

«He's a great player, and they are trying to find a working combination without him. They still haven't found it yet. So we were fortunate in that regard.»

«Pacific played better in game three, I thought. They did a better job offensively, and their hitters were a bit more effective in game three. I felt like we got careless serving and gave up chances to score points. It seemed like whenever we served the ball in, we were effective. They weren't passing all that well. We just needed to get the ball in play.»

«We're back on the winning track. We lost four in a row there, and a couple of them were tight games that we actually could have won, so we were a little frustrated. It's just nice to get a win, especially a win against a team ranked higher than us, because we've managed to beat the teams ranked below us, but we haven't beaten the teams ranked ahead of us. So, that's one, and hopefully we can get another one next week, maybe two.»

«Jeremy is very conscious of the responsibilities of the setter position. He is looking forward to the opportunity of being in that role full-time.»

«UC Irvine is a great team and really showed it tonight. Their serving was particularly tough tonight and we had to battle tough to earn every point we won in the match.»
