came dawn dictated finally middle phenomenal played player quarter ready third took until
(Northeast) came out ready to play. Dawn played a phenomenal game. She showed why she was the (District 10-AAA) Player of the Year. It took us until the middle of the third quarter to finally get in our set. Once we got in our sets, we played our game. The end of the third and most of the fourth, I thought we dictated the game. Had we done that throughout, we probably could have made it closer.
pushing week
It's where you finish. We've been pushing it pretty hard. Each week we keep getting better.
felt few foul girls halftime played quarter size stay third trouble wear within
Smyrna is big and they used their size to wear us down. We wanted to stay within 10, and we did a few times. Even at halftime when they were up 16, we didn't think it was too bad. We felt if we could get the third quarter to go our way we'd be all right. But we got in foul trouble in the third. The girls played hard, but it just wasn't enough.
fighting fights-and-fighting free kept missed playoff stayed stretch throws
We stayed in it and we kept fighting back and fighting back. We missed some free throws down the stretch we would like to have had. But this was a playoff game, with a playoff atmosphere.
bring chance dog hard looking measure worked
We're going to find out where we measure up. We feel like we've worked hard this year. We think if we get a chance to be in the game, we'll make things happen. That's what we are looking to do. We know they're going to bring their A-game and we're going to bring our A-game, and we'll see who the better dog is.
