John McDonnell Quotes

«I was thrilled. It hadn't crossed my mind that it would happen. ... It's a great honor.»
«Keeping that fire going is like chemistry. As the year goes on and you see your team start to gel, there?s like an air or halo that tells you this team is special. Each year, that feeling keeps you going.»
«We had some young guys with their backs against the wall. We got a bad call that never should have happened. They were not going to let someone come in here and steal the national championship, which is what the referee tried to do. We had several guys perform above what was expected and they showed a lot of heart.»
«The two-mile was stacked with a lot of great runners. It was similar to the 1,000 in that it didn't start on a very good pace either. They went out a little too fast. Mottram is a great runner and Alistair and Daniel were right there in the hunt until the end. Alistair has had a lot of success in Boston and I think they were watching for him tonight.»
«The first three meets were kind of lonesome. Nobody wanted to stand up and be counted. They were all running and jumping in quicksand, like zombies out there. No fire whatsoever. There are signs now that if we stay healthy, we'll be a pretty good team.»
«Conference wasn't looking very good. Now this should certify some guys who haven't done a lot. They are going to say, 'Wow, it's time for me to bring my dime into the cause.»
«It was our distances and jumps today and they put on a show. The jumpers did great and the middle distance and the distance runners really were on pace. We had a lot of guys raise their performances and that is what you have to have to win a championship.»
«I was proud of the way Adam ran in the mile. I think he could have gotten an even better time if the pace would've been a little faster. He is a guy that has some NCAA experience in the 3,000 and that will help us.»
«We got what we wanted out of the weekend. I was happy with what happened in Ames. We now have the guys in the meet to make a run at the national championship.»
«Kenya has a lot of great runners. Being a world-class runner is the thing to do over there. It's like hitting home runs or wanting to be a great baseball player. Being a great distance runner is everybody's dream there.»
