bucket guys left proud
I thought our guys left it out on the floor. I'm very proud of the way they played. A bucket here or a bucket there and we're still playing.
accept athletes bunch buy college couple good guys players team
We don't have guys go to college to play ball. We have good athletes who buy into what we're doing and play hard. You have a couple good players and a bunch of guys that accept their roles, you can have a pretty good team every year.
arises backside ball catch foul guard guys knock learn needed proud reed screen seconds shoot situation step stepped trying wild
We had a foul to give and we were trying to knock the ball away and get under two seconds to make them take a wild shot. I thought if the lob to Reed wasn't there, their guard would step out on a backside screen and catch it and shoot it. Hopefully, we can learn from that when the situation arises again. But guys stepped it up when we needed to, and I'm very proud of them.
ball guards guys hands hit lead might others points sound though
Once we got the lead we put the ball in the hands of one of the better guards in Ohio. Even though he was double-teamed all night, he got 38 points and got the others involved. It might not sound like it when he has 38 of our 62, but he hit the other guys at the right time.
fear guess guys kids playing respect underdog
If you go by rankings, I guess we're the underdog but our guys are playing with a lot of confidence. We respect all of our opponents, but we don't fear anybody. Our kids aren't going to be intimidated.
came confidence good guys half kids quarter talked third whatever
For whatever the reason, the third quarter has been our quarter this year. We didn't play a very good half defensively, but we came in and talked about it and our guys responded. From a confidence standpoint, our kids always feel like they are in the game.
kids ready seniors seven
I think these seven seniors are on a mission. I know our kids will be ready to go.
added athlete believe choose fortunate good jimmy per played point robert score scoring successful
Jimmy is more of a scoring point guard. For us to be successful this season, he had to score a lot. He also added 4.5 assists per game. He is a very good athlete and could have played any sport, but we were fortunate enough to have him choose basketball. I believe he will be successful at Robert Morris.
bike practicing shooting
We've had him on a stationary bike and he's been shooting around, but he hasn't been practicing with us.

That was good stuff. It was a great crowd and that's what high school basketball is all about.

That will give us another tough presence. We're a little deeper with him.
deeper difference speed
When you look at Mansfield Senior, they're deeper than we are. The difference is we are a little bigger. They sub speed for speed.
defense focusing great nights played sat shoot week worked
We worked all week focusing on half-court defense and rebounding because you're going to have nights where you don't shoot well. It was a great week of practice. We sat down and played defense.
