andy best defensive dominating good offensive player post productive prove
I don't think Andy has anything to prove to anyone. He's as good of a post player as there is in the state. He's productive on the offensive end, he's dominating on the defensive glass. I think he's the best all-around post player in the state.

I thought we out-toughed them by playing North's game. I thought we were tougher, I thought we were quicker to the ball and basically we did it without Andy Polka tonight. Other guys had big games. This is a big-game team.

I remember hugging my dad afterwards and him crying. I remember 'What a feeling associated with victory.' It's the pinnacle of what you do. Boy, it made me want to be a basketball player for my dad in the worst way possible.
final game leave less likely might prep scouting team time underdog win
I would like to be able to have more preparation time as a coach. The less prep time you have the more you leave the game to chance. The more likely an underdog is going to win that sectional final or a team less drilled in scouting and fundamentals might get through if you have less time to prep.

I do hear that sometimes and it does hit me.
certainly crucial floor front great guards key knock line loose open provide respect room toughness
Our front line is getting the respect and it's certainly well-deserved. But our guards provide so much toughness and so many crucial baskets at key times. They knock down open shots, they provide room for Andy. They are on the floor for loose balls, charges, it's a great group.

They get over it after a while. They are probably so sick of hearing our voices, I'm sure they'd enjoy some down time.

He did a nice job of taking his time. He took two dribbles and just let it fly.
