coach hard people year
Obviously, it was a big concern. For the juniors, the people who only have one year left, it's sometimes hard to get a new coach and have a new system.
coming determined final great guys hard job playing plays team
We started off real slow, and the guys did a great job of playing so hard and coming back. Our team was almost, like, determined at one point. We just didn't make the final plays to come down the stretch.
game hard hard-work prepare prepared special work
We didn't do anything special to prepare for the game or do anything differently. We put in hard work and prepared for this game just like any other.
both definitely ends hard help player shows team ways willing work
I think the double-double definitely shows how hard a player is willing to work on both ends of the floor. But there are a lot of other ways you can help your team that don't show up in the stats.
constant demanding fast games hardest physically running
Lacrosse is fast paced and I like fast paced games. It's demanding physically and has the hardest conditioning of any sport. You are always running if you are not sprinting. It's constant movement.
business expected hard preparing work
I don't think we did anything different in the way we went about our business of preparing for a game. We put in the hard work that's needed. We expected to make those shots.
ball difference inside main second stressed winning
We just really stressed getting the ball inside in the second half. We were all making plays. That was the main difference in us winning the game.
great guys means
We got so many guys from New York, and they know what it means to play there. It's just a great place to play.
defense forward game good last looking pride
We're going to try to have as good a game as last time. We take pride in our defense here. It's going to be a battle, but I'm looking forward to it.
bring
Every game, you have to bring it or you're going to lose.
add easily fuel game guys lost shows
We easily could have lost that game to Notre Dame. The way the young guys played, it just shows they're not going to give up. We don't want to lose. If we do, it'll add fuel to the fire.
church clothes ready sunday
We've got our church clothes ready for Sunday morning. You can write that down.
falling night played shots tough
That was a tough game. We played real hard. The shots just weren't falling tonight. It just wasn't our night.
age age-and-aging believe court experience joke leader position
We joke with him about his age a lot, but it's no joke that he's our No. 1 leader on and off the court with his experience and wisdom. I don't believe we'd be in the position we are without him.
