couple expect foul game kyle played solid
Kyle played big for us down the stretch, not just with the foul shots, but a couple of big rebounds. He had the kind of game you'd expect out of your second-leading scorer. He's been pretty solid for us this season.
half hold played second tried
We played pretty well defensively in the second half and tried to hold their scorers down a little bit.
break calm came found needed played press
We needed to calm down and break their press. We came out, found the way through the press and also played a lot better on defense.
calls inside instead looking physical played playing
(North Branford) played well. They're physical inside and we were looking for calls that we weren't going to get instead of just playing hard.
both good past played team three trying
Over the past three years or so, it's really become a good rivalry. They've had a good team and we've had a good team. And we've played some good games. (Tonight) I think at first we were both trying to feel each other out. It made for a low-scoring game. We like to play faster, but under control. At times we got out of control.
jumps keeps kyle player runs time
Kyle can be a big time player if he keeps working at it. He's 6-5, he runs and jumps well. He can move.
covered great open
We had him (Quintin) covered pretty good. It wasn't a great open shot.
gave opportunity
Some of the threes were unbelievable. But we gave them the opportunity to get it.
certainly deserves finally football great hit lose season senior shots start three took tough year
That was pretty cool. We got him out there and he took three shots and he finally hit one. He deserves it. He's a great kid. He's been with us all season. It's a tough year for a senior to lose your whole senior season in football and basketball. He was certainly going to start for us this year.
basketball half playing remember worse worst
That's the worst half of basketball I can ever remember playing in 21 years. I'd really have to think if there was one worse than that. It was just horrible.
bright games increases last nice performance pressure side taken
This would have been a nice win. It would have taken some pressure off us. Now it only increases the pressure. It was a better performance than we had the last two games and that's the bright side of it. But it's got to be 32 minutes, not 30.
few game good hard mistakes next plays ready tonight win
(Westbrook) plays hard and they don't quit. This is the kind of game where you get in and you think you're just going to win it and then you make a few mistakes and you're not going to have a good game. We wanted to show tonight that we can play and to get ready for the next game.
hold ready second tight win
We're getting a little tight because it's getting down to the end and we know we have to win to hold first or second place and we're just not ready to do it.
game hand last mentally minutes tough
When you're up that much in the last two minutes you just hand the game away. We just don't play mentally tough enough at the end of games.
