Our rebounding was a big edge in this game.
capable game gear great hope lose team tonight tough
That's a tough one. You lose a tough game like we do tonight and you got to gear back up and play a great team like Charleston. I hope we're capable of that.
bought carries defense great kid leader shoulders team top turned
He's really bought into the man-to-man defense, and really turned into a leader. He's always guarding the other team's top player, and at times carries the team on his shoulders on defense. He's such a leader by example, such a great kid to have around.
care gets guys love
I love this team. These guys are so unselfish. They don't care who gets the credit, they just want to win.
deep great guys hard heck paid personal speaks team volumes work
That just speaks volumes of how deep of a team we are. On any other team, a lot of these guys all would probably be first team. ... It's a heck of an accomplishment for our team. It's a great personal accomplishment for those guys that made it. Hard work paid off.
came created figured guard guy hit jeff left numbers team until void willing
The big guy (Bogan) came in and D.D. (Gillespie) left and that kind of created a void at the guard spot. Jeff was willing to let his numbers take a hit for a while until he figured everything out and the team figured everything out.
goal second win
Not winning, second place doesn't make you feel good. Our goal was one thing, to win it all.
came gave heck lucky played
It was one heck of a game. Puxico came out and played their butts off. They gave us everything they had and we were lucky enough to come out on top.
best came credit exactly extremely game great played sign
I want to give Verona credit, they came out and played extremely well. I think that's a sign of what a great team's about. We weren't exactly on our game and they played their best game, and we still came away with a 10-point win.
anytime forcing good jump puts seem
Anytime you can come out and jump on somebody, that kind of puts you in the driver's seat. You're looser, you're not as tight, you're not forcing things as much. When we jump out on that lead, we seem to play pretty good with that.
bending bit defense feet guess happen help moving needed points quite reaching second seemed time
That second half, we seemed a little sloppy. Our help defense wasn't quite what it needed to be. We were reaching a little bit more than we needed, not moving our feet (or) bending our knees. But, when you've got 60 points in the first half, I guess that can happen from time to time in the second half.
foul second trouble wear
At halftime, we look and we?re not in foul trouble, so we know we?re going to get after it and wear them down in the second half.
care fans forward less looking
I think the fans are probably looking forward to it more. I could care less who we play.
