But a win is a win, and that was a great gutsy win!
Pressure is part of the game. Coach needs to know how you will do. Also sometimes experience is what you need to overcome it. Also I like it that the coach said...look boys. Anyone can move up in my books and everyone will have a chance to prove themselves. Work hard and I will notice.

That speaks volumes in my books.
