conference focus good keeping
Our team?s focus has been pretty good (during the conference season). They?re keeping things in perspective.
chances good leap looking reach steps taking
We were taking steps before but this is a leap right now. We're looking pretty good (to reach the playoffs). I like my chances right now.
breakdown good practices prepare ready three tired van wednesday
Van Buren will have three good practices to prepare for us. We will be tired Wednesday and will only have a breakdown practice to get ready for Van Buren.
check good gut panic perform pressure quick
We didn't panic and got some quick baskets and then solidified (the lead) with rebounding. This was a good gut check for us. This could be a big game, to let us know that we can come back and perform under pressure and execute.
beat chance cheering everybody feeling finals gave good nobody people point production several starting tournament
Everybody (in Rolla) was cheering for us in the tournament finals but nobody really gave us a chance to beat that team. After that I was feeling very good about our chemistry. We were starting to get some point production from several people and that was going to be critical.
good guarantees math tonight
I?m not too good at math but I think (the win) pretty much guarantees us going to state. That?s the only good thing I see from tonight other than the win.
deep fresh good looked quality
Considering we don't have an exceptionally deep bench, I thought we looked pretty fresh tonight. Right now our quality of play is good and because it is, we're able to win.
ask basketball carrying games good jump playing steady together
We may as well jump on (Moore?s) back. He?s carrying us and really playing steady basketball. He?s put together some back-to-back games offensively for us that are about as good as you can ask of a junior.
ball both decisions ends good key limit
We must make good decisions with the ball and limit unforced turnovers. Rebounding will be key on both ends of the floor.
final kids panicked sports
Our kids never panicked going into the final quarter. We were able to come back because of our defense.
added adds caused foul front involved lose pressure speed starters trouble
(Jonesboro's) pressure up front caused us to speed up too much and get involved in their game. When you lose that many trips, that adds up. We also got two starters in foul trouble and that added to the dilemma. .
huge kyle steal
That was a huge steal by Kyle to set all that up.
erratic five free goes great guys hard hit kids length line shape six step throws tired
We've got to be in great shape to be able to play five and six guys for that length of time. Our kids are in great shape. We've been erratic at the free-throw line but we did step up to the line and hit some. The first thing to go if you're tired is going to be your legs. If those goes then those free throws are going to be pretty hard to make.
guys happens nice seat sweat watch
We'll take a back seat and see what happens around the league. It'll be nice to watch these other guys sweat it.
