Michael gave chaser-Lucy a sympathetic grimace. "You're doing a good job," he said, not wanting any of the chasers to feel discouraged. He knew, logically, the Hufflepuff chasers would fly rings around them, but they also had 2 seventh years who were easily the best chasers in the school. The Ravenclaws were only just starting out. By the time they were in the upper years, they could well be just as good as the current Hufflepuffs. He had to motivate himself, too, because he knew he was going to get absolutely slaughtered by the Hufflepuff chasers. "At least the game will probably be shorter. Higher intensity, but less time. More testing speed over stamina. But the stamina is important too."
