That was the key play of the game. That sort of put it away.

That was a key stretch. When Greensville took that lead, I wondered how the kids would respond. We haven't trailed in many games, and especially on this stage. Everyone stepped up with Hosea on the bench.

At the end you can never tell who has won the fight, and who has lost, because they do not show their emotion because it could embarrass the loser. It is unbelievable.
