game hope kept lead means played playing
A lot of times we get a lead and let down, but we never did that (last Tuesday). We kept playing all game and played very hard. We hope it means we're peaking at the right time.
defense win
I thought a three- or four-minute spurt would win this for us, and it didn't. Their defense wouldn't let us do that.
answer best seen team
They're probably the best team I've seen this year. We had no answer to Kristin Daugherty.
focused four good matter quarters stay teams
It really doesn't matter who we play, all the teams are going to be good at this level. We just have to come out and play like we did (last Tuesday). We have to stay focused and play four quarters of basketball.
happy win
As happy as we are to win district, we're not happy enough yet, I guess.
feels games good last left season wire year
It feels very good (to have the CCL clinched). Last year we had to go to the wire with Ready. This year to get it with two games left in an eight-game season is great.
enjoy fun girls great group hard leaders loose overall seniors seven work
These girls are an overall loose group and they have a lot of fun together. They work hard and play hard. We have seven seniors who are great leaders and the girls really enjoy being around each other.
bounce explained hard played sat second tough ways
It was a tough time. But after the second loss, we sat down and I explained that there were two ways to go: bounce back or go in the tank. They've responded well and played hard and focused.
anytime best finish helped loss north played season undefeated
Anytime you can finish undefeated in the CCL, you have to be happy. We had a little hiccup (in a 51-47 loss to Pickerington North on Feb. 4). We've kind of rededicated the season to the fundamentals and doing things that helped us become successful. We still don't feel like we've played our best ball.
handled
We handled Watterson pretty well the first time, but they're much-improved and are very young.
anyone chance good point win
We really feel at this point that we have as good a chance as anyone to win state.
best controlled force game good played worst
We didn't play our best and they did. We couldn't force turnovers. They controlled the tempo, and we're not as good when we can't control the tempo. We played our worst game of the year.
drew few good league tough
We've scouted them a few times. They have a lot of good athletes. They're in a tough league (City League-North Division). We drew a tough opponent.
