awe last playing time win year
Last year we were kind of in awe of playing down there. This time we're going down there to win a game.
anyone finally focused game girls hall knew last north played playing stayed wear weeks
North Hall has been playing as well as anyone over the last two weeks and we knew not to take them lightly. They played an outstanding game but we were finally able to wear them down at the end. Our girls just stayed focused and business-like.
left players work
There's a lot of work left to be done. The players they have back are quality.
rely shoot sounds three transition
They're very athletic. They rely a lot on transition baskets, and they shoot the three a lot, that sounds a lot like us, really.
breaks girls group proud
I've never been more proud of a group of girls in my life. Unfortunately, the breaks just didn't go our way tonight.
hall north played remind
North Hall battled and played well. They're so young. They remind me a lot of us two years ago.
approach knew
It was a business-like approach from the girls. We've been here before and we knew what we had to do to get back there.
defense drives game midway playing plays problem score team
Our defense is what drives us and that was the problem midway through the season. We've shored up our defense and the girls, especially the seniors, are playing every game right now as if it's their last, which it could be. They can score and so can we. Whichever team plays better defense will win.
fact good hard instead living loss people playing seemed showing woke
I didn't feel very good about how we were playing, but more importantly, I didn't feel good about how we were approaching things. We weren't playing hard and seemed to be living on the fact that people thought we were good instead of showing them in our play. But that loss woke us up, I think.
physical played
We didn't get position, and she just played very physical tonight.
girls good hurt late might ready record year
You look at the record and you might think that, but they have two girls that are as good as any in the state. One of them was hurt late in the year and has just come back. We will have to be ready to play.
anybody friday good sloppy worried
We advanced, and we didn't get anybody hurt, so it was a good game. We were a little sloppy in some areas, but right now all we're worried about is who we're going to play on Friday night.
clutch knew missed responsibility
We thought we had her covered. We knew she was a clutch shooter, but we had a missed assignment, and I'll take responsibility for that.
