heels imposed knocked shots tough
I think they imposed their will on us. They made tough shots and big shots and executed. They knocked us on our heels and they got us to go out of character.
fight grit guys love quit taught year
I love this team. There has been a lot of grit and fight in these guys all season. These guys made my first year so special. They had no quit and taught me so much about resiliency.
conquering games gave half heart loved moving passion second start
I thought at the start of the second half we made a statement. I loved our toughness, heart and passion we gave out on the court. In big games like this it's all about surviving, conquering and moving on.
competition execution guys level overall please
I was overall please with our effort. I told the guys I wanted championship level competitiveness and execution.
answers doubt doubts fear fears hold playing secret
Overall, I don't know if we hold any secret answers over Stout. I don't think they have any doubts or fears playing us.
finding good guy guys hot love rhythm seems simple teams trust
I love how these guys trust each other. We get into a good rhythm of finding the guy with the hot hand. It seems simple but a lot of teams don't do it.
certain feeling guys hoped sure talked
I'm sure our guys are feeling like we had them down there (Feb. 15). We've talked about that and I'm certain our guys hoped they could play Platteville again. And I'm sure Platteville would want to play us again.
help share split stand
I can't help but think even if we get a split with Platteville, we've got a share of the title. Unfortunately, we let Platteville stand in our way.
believing brian fire leading next until wait
Brian Bauer got us believing back in September. We weren't going to wait until next year. He was on fire leading and challenging the team.

Matt epitomized a team player. He gives everything and asks for nothing. Now he's helping this team try to win a championship. He made some clutch shots.
bounce certainly crowd fast grit home passion plays start team until wait
It's disappointing to get off to that start on your home floor, and the other team plays with more passion and urgency. Certainly you want to start fast and get the crowd into it. You've got to have some grit when things don't go well and bounce back quickly. You can't wait until halftime.
ball basket bring pass plenty rhythm scramble seconds
We wanted to bring the ball to the basket in some way. We had 15 seconds and that is plenty of time. But we muffed a pass and then we were in kind of a scramble mode. We had to take a not in rhythm shot.
best gym team whatever
When you let a team play that well in your gym this can happen. We didn't think Platteville would come in and not give us their best shot. For whatever reason, we let them get started and let them believe.
kids plays quite stepped win
We battled and competed all the way. The kids wanted this win badly, but we just didn't have quite enough. Crawford stepped up and made some big-time plays down the stretch.
