atmosphere batch deficit heart kids played proud quit second
I was proud of our kids for how we battled in the second half. We were down by such a deficit and it was a carnival-type of atmosphere in the first half. We played with a lot of heart and desire. There was no quit in the batch that was on the floor.
chad davis gave good minutes
Chad Davis gave us good minutes off the bench, and I thought we rebounded well.
depth goals great kids low means
I really like our depth this year. The kids have great goals and they really want to be consistently good. We have more depth, and I think that means more low scores.
balance basketball defensive fort good madison mount needed seems span stops third
Fort Madison has a lot of balance and is a very good basketball team. We just didn't get the defensive stops we needed in the third quarter. It just seems like a four-minute span is killing us right now, just as it did at Mount Pleasant.
chance gave kids knew ourselves ready win
This was a big game, especially for them. Our kids were ready for the game. We knew it would be physical, and we gave ourselves a chance to win at the end.
credit gone kids led losses nice practice ready road ways win
Those road losses led to a really nice win tonight. The preparation and practice were great. We really could have gone one of two ways after those losses. We were ready to play and it's a credit to what the kids have gone through.
