chance crowd front game hate knew momentum swings tie
Right there, you could feel the momentum -- you hate to say a tie game swings the momentum -- but you could feel the crowd was back into it. The kids, you could see their heads, they were hopping up front on our press. Right then I knew we had a chance to win.
control couple definitely player players successful
We definitely have to control O'Connor and we've been successful at controlling just one player but they have a couple other players who can shoot.
good tough
From what I'm hearing, they have some good shooters which could be a tough task.
five nice offensive played three
He had three dunks and five blocks. He played a nice offensive game.
district next ready round shot
This was the one I wanted. I want the district championship but I wanted to get to the round where you know you have a shot to get to the next round. They're excited. After the game, they were asking, 'When's the next game?' They're ready to play.
course guys helps outlet
We scored a lot in transition. Of course it helps when you have guys 6-7, 6-8 making the outlet pass. We had some big baskets out of transition.
both coached effort exciting hearts played rivalry suppose teams total
Both teams played their hearts out. That's the way a rivalry is suppose to be played. It was a total team effort and one of the most exciting I've ever coached in.
again game looking press throw
We just never recovered. They make you play that game because they come out and full-court press you the whole time. That's what I'm looking for again Saturday. We know they're going to throw that at us.
coming guys playing trade yell
I wouldn't trade any one of those guys for anything. They play with a lot of heart. I yell at them and they still keep coming back and playing hard. It's been a lot of fun.
ball beat floyd guard inside last point
We need to make them beat us with the long ball. We can't let (Bishop Guilfoyle point guard Sean) McConnell penetrate as much as he did in the last game. He was able to get inside and get the ball to (Kevin) Floyd and Meyers.
defense helped imagine league size stop thrown
Our size has helped us a lot. Our league has thrown every defense you can imagine to try and stop our height.
district hang happy nice title
We're happy that we're going on to the (state playoffs) but there hasn't been a district title ever so we'd like to hang that in the gymnasium. That'd be nice to look at.
die eight fighting matching points second shots somebody theory third
I like us matching up with 3-point shooters. My theory is if you're going to live by it, you're going to die by it. How many times do you see somebody make more than eight or 10 in a game. If they make eight, that's 24 points and if they don't get second or third shots off of them, they're fighting to get 40 points on us with our size.
care key loosen pass people second seeing
I just told them to loosen up and pass the ball, take care of it. That was the key to the second half. In transition, we were seeing the right people on the floor.
