Quotes of the Week
Joe Canavan (Palm Desert) about his 66-00 SP effort at Arcadia
"I usually throw better when I have nachos with extra cheese and lots of jalapenos.  Everything
goes according to plan when I have that." "For me to get 70, everything's got to be perfect.  Lightning
needs to strike twice. Lightning stuck at Arcadia and it was one of those moments..."
(to Patti Myers
in the Desert Sun - April 20th)

Coach Haskell Henson (one of our favorites from Small School power Selma in Central Section)
on Rosario Sanchez, the state leader in Girls SP (47-11.50):
"She told me she did not get full extension
on the almost 48 foot put. I think she is going to go 50 feet soon."
  On 15-04 Vaulter Anthony Puente:
"He will go 16 feet this year."  (to the Selma Enterprise - April 20th)
