Well, it's a great question. And we as managers and executives, we try to figure out the same thing. So we can replicate it year over year. It's not easy to find and our guys have found it for now. But it's a long year. And we're going to have to continue to build. We need to be better in February than we were in November. We're going to be better in April and hopefully down the stretch and into the playoffs. But it's a group that has a great deal of character. They've all bought in. They are selfless. Trying to make themselves better every day, but understanding and contributing to roles that our coaches and our development staff need them in to contribute to a winning team.

Q: You’ve been around the game for a long time. What have you seen change over the years? Was there one big change that you have noticed? Well, definitely. The game has gotten way faster. I can tell you that for sure. The physical part, I guess, has kind of removed a little bit. I mean, for years, we talk about the back in the 70s and in the 80s, a little bit more fighting. I wouldn't say that's out of the game. But for me, the biggest change is just how fast these kids play. It's just, I mean, the stick's also going for a wooden stick. With the sticks too, it's just been unbelievable how the game has just been going, I mean, I can really speak for the girls’ side, as well, how the game has been going and it's a fast game for entertainment for people.
