Goal for staff: Make each day your masterpiece. You have to apply yourself each day to becoming a little better. By applying yourself to the task of becoming a little better each and every day over a period of time, you will become a lot better. Only then will you be able to approach being the best you can be.

Goal for editors & advisor: Define success for those under your leadership as total commitment and effort to the team's welfare. Then show it yourself with your own effort and performance. Most of those you lead will do the same. Those who don't should be encouraged to look for a new team. — John Wooden

Day 782x7: Quote patterns, the semi-colon, and COD

OK people, it's time to seriously review some quote patterns and formatting issues:

1. Correct the mistakes in this sentence
"It was a great game." Holland Bool said, "We surprised San Marin and crushed them with our mighty play."

2. Correct the mistakes in this sentence
"It's clear we were a better team," Bool said. "We played with greater skill, they just couldn't handle our defense."

3. Correct the mistakes in these sentences
Bool also commented on why the team won the game. "We were just better and played with great effort."

4. Correct the mistakes in these sentences
"I love water polo, and playing 2-meter is where I get to see the most action with the ball," said Bool. "There is also a lot of action on the perimeter."

Kate Claman agreed, "The perimeter is where a lot of action takes place."

5. Correct the mistakes in these sentences
It's obvious that water polo is an intense and vigorous sport. It takes dedication, heart, soul, humor, and lots of time in the water. The Marin Academy girls water polo team has shown that it can hang with the best of teams and play strong defense no matter what. They are a great group of gals, and as the season comes to a close let's wish them all lots of luck.
