ball coaches coming goes hard knows looks offense offensive people point stop stopping touch tyler work
Other coaches have said to me it looks like our offense goes through him most of the time. And it does. At some point he has to touch the ball and every coach knows that. They are coming out to try and stop it, so Tyler has to work especially hard on the offensive end to keep people from stopping him.
excited game level taking time worry
I know it's a cliche', but we're taking it one game at a time. We just play on one level all the time and don't get any more excited about one game than another. We just worry about the way we play and what we do.
fastest feet jump kid surprise year
The big surprise this year has been his defense. He doesn't have the quickest feet in the world, he is not the fastest kid and he doesn't jump very well, but he is always in the right place defensively.
hot job nice second seemed taking time took tyler
He was hot early, but Wethersfield did a nice job of taking him away and it took us a while to find a second scorer. It seemed like we were going to Tyler all the time in the first quarter.
basketball coming extremely goal good guys happy hold team tonight
I was extremely happy with the guys tonight. That is a really good basketball team to hold to just 30 points. Every goal that we had coming into tonight we were able to meet.
gym known saw year
I've been here 16 years so I've known him most of his life. Every year I see him in the gym and the first place I ever saw him was in a gym. He is always in a gym and always has been.
ball doubling hoping kick open post saw second
Offensively we wanted to get the ball into the post more in the second half. We saw they were doubling down so we were hoping to kick it back out and get some open looks.
against block doubling free half line moved start success throw work
We like for him to start around the block and work his way out. That is what he did in the first half against ROWVA. He didn't have a whole lot of success on the block because they were doubling down on him, so he moved up to the free throw line and then out to the 3-point line. That is something he can do and we feel comfortable with him out there.
goals tournament undefeated win wonderful
We'd like to go undefeated in the conference, win the tournament and win a regional. Those are wonderful goals to have.
defense good job might offense slump talk time
We talk about our offense might slump a bit, but defense never slumps. You have to play defense all the time and we did a good job of that.
