credit makeup number options players
As a coach, I have a number of options (with the makeup of the team) and that's a credit to the players themselves.
heck mean previous seems
It's a heck of a feat. It seems like every year, the previous year's accomplishments don't mean anything to these girls. They want to get back there.
beat easy fourth hard team three until
I think it is hard to beat a team three times. That was not an easy game. Even with a 20-point lead, I didn't feel comfortable until the fourth quarter.
challenged kids
Rebounding is all about will. At halftime, I challenged our kids' will.
forget tip travel
Obviously, the travel is an issue. This was the worst-case scenario. When we tip off, I think we should forget about it, though.
green knows light
Bridget knows she has the green light from outside. She did an outstanding job.
couple feeling plays press pressure time
We didn't want to press right out of the gate. But I had a feeling it was time to put the pressure on them. I just thought we could make a couple plays right there if we pressed.
extremely games hard knew left played time tried year
We've been in a lot of big games this year and we've played an extremely hard schedule. We knew there was a lot of time left when we were down. We just tried to keep our composure.
halftime hitting knew reason team
We knew that they had 3-point shooters so if they started hitting threes it would be a different game. We were up 15 at halftime but we weren't comfortable because this team was here for a reason and, if they hit some threes, it could be a different game.
focusing playoffs state thinking
We're not even thinking about the state playoffs yet. We're just focusing on the WPIAL playoffs.
