Quotes

"We played another great game against that team. Something about them always seems to bring out the best in us. We moved the ball really well and got a lot of open looks. We weren't hitting from the outside as much as usual but our bigs guys hit the boards hard and got a lot of looks inside. We played great defense and kept the intensity up for most of the game." - CJP guard Brett Goedeke

"Of all the teams we have ever played What The F**k Are You Ewing is by far the most similar team to us in talent, age, and physical stature. However I believe the difference between us is that we dominate the game by passing and they try to dominate with a lot of dribbling and thus far it's 2-0 in favor of the pass." - CJP forward Daniel Sondreal

Retirement? Not quite yet for Lane Leedahl.

Temporary retirement no more! Contrary to his announcement in early May, Curtis J. Phillips power forward Lane Leedahl will be joining the team for its upcoming title defense in the 2011 LPRD Men's 4 Summer Basketball League. Leedahl was set to take the summer off due time constraints but that isn't the case anymore as he officially notified the team last week he will once again be sporting his infamous number four jersey for team CJP. With Leedahl playing, the original eight man core of CJP is still intact and should once again be in the running for another league championship.
