half missing three top
We started each half missing a wide-open lay-up, and that kind of set the tone. My top three scorers couldn't find the basket.
award coaches deserving good humbling win
It's very humbling to win this award again. There are so many good coaches out there in all of the sports. There are a lot of deserving people.
fabulous hard work
He's a fabulous shooter. We'll try to make him work hard for his shots.
hopefully learn learned
Like we always say, sometimes you learn more in losses, so hopefully we learned our lessons.
bet fan safe since
I'm not a big fan of that play. But since no one (on defense) was trailing, it was a pretty safe bet at that point. I thought it was fine.
fits guard looks point pressure puts quick score
He (Jones) fits in great. He's probably the most point-oriented point guard that we've had here. He looks to score and that puts a lot of pressure on teams. Plus, he's quick and makes a lot of steals.
covered great guy
We had it covered pretty well. The guy made a great play.
coming compete good high kids learn seniors system time
We have a lot of good kids that keep coming through (Kentwood). But I like to think that our system has something to do with it too. These kids come in young and they learn how to compete at a high level. And by the time they are seniors they do just that.
guys replace
We didn't have many guys to replace him with. It was a gutsy win.
business happen kids playing whether
We told the kids it's life. Things always don't happen the way you want them to whether you're in business or playing sports.
battle round survived
We survived round one, and now we've got to go do battle with another heavyweight team.
again chance good learn
We know we'll probably see them again (at state) and there's a good chance we'll see Curtis again. We always try to learn from our losses. Hopefully, we'll make the adjustments we need.
