basketball effort game great hard knew loss offensive respect walk
After the effort we gave, it makes it hard (after a game like this). It's hard to walk away with a loss when you give it your all, but we knew who we were playing. We respect them and we know they're a great offensive basketball team. We've got to get better.
fight game liked lost midway passion played second
I think we lost the game midway through the second quarter. But I liked our second-half intensity. I thought we got back into the fight and we played with a lot of intensity. We played with a lot of passion and it mattered.
best ourselves position respect
We have a lot of respect for them, and we know what they have accomplished this year, ... we're going to get at it and put ourselves in as best as a position as we can on (Friday).
defensive lost mark rebound stop
We couldn't get a stop or a defensive rebound from about the three-and-a-half-to-four-minute mark down, and that's where we lost the game.
collapsing free people scoring start touches
We have got to get him touches at the basket. Everything we do has to start in his hands. Even when he's not scoring with a drop-step or a hook, people are collapsing on him and that's going to free up Brandon and Gabe for some jump-shot opportunities.
came great guys morning night played record remember turn whenever
This was a great night for these kids. We told them (Saturday) morning that 15, 20 years from now, nobody's going to remember who they played or what their record was, but these guys are going to remember that they came here and played. Whenever we get the invitation, we won't turn it down.
conference decide definitely rest tone
We're colliding awfully early. I don't think it will decide the conference championship, but it will definitely set the tone the rest of the way.
admirable good guard hard job knocked plain plays recover season teams time work
You have to be able to make good plays on just about every possession. They don't get rattled. So many times this season they've knocked teams out in the first quarter. Teams have to work so hard to recover from that. By the time they do that, the game's over. Those are things we have to guard against. We've done an admirable job of that the first two times, but it wasn't enough, plain and simple.
chop felt last seconds time
We wanted to chop up those last 16 seconds with some fouls. We felt Gabe (Landau) got one at the time line, but it wasn't called. So (Henderson) penetrated and got right down the lane.
defensive excellent job keeping length looked scoreboard series stops time
Every time I looked at the scoreboard even after a series of defensive stops we were always down by 10 points. Batavia just has so much depth, and they did an excellent job of keeping us at arm's length all night.
defend four game last lost minutes rebound shot won
Everyone will look at the last shot that didn't go for us that would've won it. But we lost the game in the last four minutes when we couldn't defend or get that big rebound to keep them at arm's length.
hardly trace tried
We tried to get Shaun involved. In the first half, there was hardly a trace that he even played.
safe
Nothing is for sure, but I would say that's a safe bet.
against ball came couple inside knock looks outside team
There were a couple stretches offensively where we got the ball where we wanted it, but we couldn't knock down a shot. We got some inside and some outside looks where we came away with nothing. You can't do that against a team of Barrington's caliber.
