Coach Pfeifer on Blaine: “From the beginning, Kirk understood the value we place on players who were not afraid to engage on every play. The things he did often did not show up in the stat book, like setting screens and chasing down loose balls. Kirk was about playing hard and doing whatever the team needs for him to do to help us find our level of success.”
